PG: Refs stun Bulls 

Post#1 » by DASMACKDOWN » Tue Jan 23, 2024 4:27 am

We were up big, the refs kept chipping away and finally pulled it out.

We should have won this game. Sure Durant was clutch in the 4th but the game was still ours. We played well enough to win and we look like a good team again.

Lets vindicate the rest of the trip.

With what logic does Demar's and-1 not count? Even if they determined no foul occurred, he still made the shot but they didn't count it.

What rule exists to justify such a ruling?

With that said, KD is way too freaking good at basketball.

Not complaining about the Demar's shots. I've come around to accept that it is what it is as long as we have him. It's up to AK to trade him or not resign him, and Billy for forcing the issue (somebody else take the shot).

Sucks that after a great first half, the second half was such a let down. And Ref definitely got their hands dirty on it.

Nobody have answers for Kevin Durant. Nothing we can do when he's on his game.

You can call an offensive foul.....but can't take the points off. It was nonsense.

they didnt say no foul occured, they said it was an offensive foul on DeRozan. But the "foul" (which to me was iffy) occured after the ball was on its way in the hoop, have no idea why the basket doesnt count.

Even though Derozan made some key buckets, I don't like how Billy just freezes White out of all clutch situations. Either make him your PG and develop him, or trade him. Derozan gets treated like Michael Jordan by our coaches.

Can't win 5v8
When I complain about the refs being crooked people always point at the FTAs, but it isn't about that. It is about the momentum calls, getting guys in foul trouble early, making a guy sit when he is hot or locking down a star player.. etc

My sig was made to start the season, sort of in jest but jfc do I see the refs push games way too often.

They also conveniently ignored that Grayson fouled him as DeMar was rising up AND took away his landing spot, which should've been an automatic flagrant.

Fun game. Drummond's overreaction woke KD up.

This loss is on me, I shouldn't have disrespected KD like that.

I don't understand how KD can play like a guy from the rec league at the Y for two and a half quarters and then be the best player on the planet for the rest of the game.

One thing I appreciate about Coby he makes good plays and I’m not sure if gonna shoot it or pass in the clutch.

DeMar I’m always blitzing if I’m the defense.

Debo has gotten is ass kicked by Lebron enough to pick up some of the reasons why that guy is so good in the clutch. It isn’t about taking that shot

O refs kept them in the game and rewarded them at the end.

If the Bulls do, you would be complaining to much to ever hear it.


NBA fan logic we need to trade one of two best players because (Player X) one needs to shine more.

That's bs. tainted the game.

But a loss is a loss. We're a team closer to 11th seed than 6th seed. Our "top 2" guys are really mid. Demar and Vuc. Appreciate their contribution, but as long as they're our top 2, we're not going to have a very high ceiling.

This loss is a win for fans to force AK to make changes, especially related to the mentioned"top 2" guys.

Billy is Billy, he's going to Billy. He's the team's baseline for the remaining of his contract.

This is normal, MJ had moments like this. Kobe also the same.
