did anyone else think it odd that when they took away Chandler's 2 free throws, that they didn't award us a possession?
the situation: refs erroneously awarded Chandler 2 free throws when World Peace fouled him. the foul was offensive. thus, free throws were inappropriate. someone reviews it as the game continued and, minutes later, the 2 points are taken off the scoreboard. BUT THEY NEVER GAVE US THE POSSESSION WE MISSED OUT ON AS A REPLACEMENT FOR THE FREE THROWS REVERSED.
commentators acted like nothing was wrong on ESPN. if that's a proper application of the rules, then the rules are fucked up.
That shit was shady as fuck.
Someone should lose their job over that.
I've never seen that in all my years of watching basketball.
Refs thought LA was over the limit but they weren't so they took the points off the board. What I didn't like was the Knicks got screwed out of a possession.
for real

Just quoting this because it happened again. This time they robbed us of two free throw attempts.
Yeah, really weird this happens two nights in a row.
WTF is this? Some weird calls there. Refs will have to adjust to our team again. They need to watch some videos, especially last 2 games. Many obvious blown calls, and against the wolves the game was just officiated badly. You know its bad when obvious calls or non-calls are being butchered both ways.
At least tonight they admitted to fucking up.
Agree on comments on referrees.
Wolves and star K.Love is great young team super for the league and NBA West. Rubio going to be PG player in
the league as he was in Europe few yrs.
However Referees was giving the Rubio the calls treatment as if Rubio was S.Nash, P.Pierce, Kobe and Wade.
I know that team was playing at home and Rubio plays great 2 way game on both ends of floors with hustle
But some of his game are fouls refs never calls (at least tonite)
opinion only

yep agree
At some points the hard fouls and physical plays I dont mine as a tough NY Knick man
but Lin seem to get hurt few times on the bumps and bangs from Rubio and most calls
went vs. Lin and Rubio wasnt called for alot.
I've never seen anything like that-- then two nights in a row!
Blake and Fisher were hacking away at Lin last night and tonight it was Rubio , he will get calls over time but it's pissing me off

agreed. it is annoying. was glad he got a call at the end. if he didn't, i might have thrown something at the screen.
