There was at least 6 challenge-able calls that were completely bogus. We had to waste a challenge on the Giannis fade away that was directly in front of the official, with nothing obstructing their view.
Hell of a game from them Heat boys, but shit calls are super deflating, especially when it affects such a close game like that.
Unpopular take: I understand there is a limit on challenges. That being said, the Heat have to stop holding on to their challenges HOPING they will be able to use them later in a close game situation.
Challenges are there for you to challenge calls you don’t agree - that you are allowed to challenge within the rules of the game.
If there is a call the Heat don’t agree with they should go right ahead and challenge the play - regardless of what point in the game it is - it could be the difference in the game - it could be the play that actually determines whether the game will be close or not later on.
I’ve been a fan of this team since its birth. I love this team and I love me some Spo more than anyone - but some of the antics like complaining to the referee’s- running into the middle of the court to call a timeout is a little excessive and tiring to watch sometimes. If you don’t agree with a call - challenge it and move on.
There really doesn’t seem to be a respect for the game/officials anymore like there once was. Then again, the league isn’t holding players and coaches accountable for it like they once did, either.
That’s my rant on this.
I watched the last 3 Bucks games and it’s been like that every game.
Spo said in post game the tech “really sealed the game”
I’m not gonna trip on the officiating. This isn’t a game that was ruined by the refs. We are down 3 starters this is an encouraging loss.
At the same time it’s frustrating because this is a completely different type of intensity that I saw this entire game that we didn’t bring vs the Knicks in the 4th quarter.
Need to be better. I think our players know that for next year.
They kept it close the entire night for the bucks in all honesty
Idk how it’s possible, but apparently the REFS are against EVERY single team in the league according to their fanbases.
The weird thing is that the REFS are only crooked in the games they lose, but when they WIN … The refs are NEVER mentioned as a factor at all?
It’s the damnedest thing …
One of the mysteries of the universe I suppose
