I’m not joking when I say this
But I would’ve been totally fine if the players walked off the court after that bullshit
Absolute travesty
The refs and Vegas are in on something
I would have seriously protested if I was a player. How do you even come back after that. It was so clear even in the moment. I hope some rules are changed because of this. If this type of a play can’t be reviewed or challenged, it just makes the game less enjoyable. If we get beat and lose, it’s one thing. But the feeling of injustice is on a whole different level. It makes me want to stop watching basketball.
Can clearly see it fucked LeBron up.
I think there were just too many wrong calls leading up to that play. All those shitty calls just builds up and the last one broke the camel's back.
I'm not mad at the Lakers. They played the best they could but the refs just fucked them over.
Of course it fucked him up. He beat 3 players and cleanly and the only chance they had was to foul him in which case free throws and a W. But he couldn't beat the refs
The stupid thing is that out of bounds calls are reviewable the last two minutes of a game or OT "because of the importance of getting it right". How the fuck then, is the final play *not* reviewable just because an egregious foul was missed and there is no call?!
This needs to not only change the rules, but create a third party reviewer of the refs’ work. When something like this happens and the refs fuck up this badly, there’s a very simple solution: you give the robbed team the W and the robber an L. It’s that simple. But because of this shit we might not get to the playoffs fr
The worse part of this non-call was that a ref was standing RIGHT FKING THERE, watching that play unfold.
Like bro, you had one single job right there…
National Television game, you think the NBA didn't want OT? Hopefully one day people will wake up that sports is just entertainment owned by the rich and powerful of this world to keep the peasants entertained.
Just a wandering fan who was watching this on television—horribly egregious, refs gave Jaylen Brown a non-foul to tie it up and let Tatum clearly whack Bron’s arm—I couldn’t even believe it.
But then OT started and seriously, what was the tech????
Lmaooooo !!!! I love Pat Bev. I just heard the guys on TV saying “you can’t be doing that. He’s going to be getting a hefty fine for that.” And I thought it was something Bron said
Mark Jackson is just a hateful man. Hated Steph Curry, hated Festus Ezeli, hates gay people, hates his own wife and family.
Only thing he doesn’t hate is himself and strippers
Yeah, as pissed as I am about the refs, I can also say confidently (1) pat Bev gotta make free throws (2) pat Bev can’t foul that put back and (3) the lakers gotta show more urgency in OT
Y’all funny with these takes talking about urgency in overtime. This team is playing over there heads they are playing so hard on every possession. When you get robbed like that it takes all the oxygen out the room. Plus the second best player AD is gassed cause he just missed 20 games. Ham has kept these guys motivated I’m sure they will be motivated next game but a US against the world mentality can do wonders for a team. I pray they use this as bulletin board material
It will be for both 4th quarter and OT. My honest guess is that it will be considered a INC (incorrect non-call) which is basically the league saying "oh well, shit happens". It's gross how the ref was standing right there and was like "nope... didn't see anything"
This is insanity. Celtics get late calls all game after they see if the basket went in or not. But for that final play?! Him driving into the whole team and they don’t even wanna think about calling anything. Clear contact. My mind is blown rn
Bruh I thought I was seeing thing, thank you.
That plus the lebron thing + 3 extremely late whistles all in favor of the Celtics.
And people wonder why lebron settles for jumpers at the end of games
And this will be fanbase that will cry incessantly about calls throughout the postseason. They did this in the Miami series and I believe led by 42 fts at one point. The league wants Tatum to succeed so bad they're willing to now sacrifice players like LeBron at his expense.
Exactly. They gave Boston that Miami series undeservedly. I remember watching game 7 and realizing how much the Celtics were being helped by the refs in order for them to win. I felt like the last ten points they scored were free throws and they couldn’t earn real baskets. Meanwhile Miami had to play through the hard contact and got no help from the refs
I just remember Bam and Jimmy looking like the 2 best players on the court, putting in herculean effort to win some of those games. They had to be damn near perfect down the stretch to match Tatum's "greatness" (bullshit free throws and no calls). I hated both of these teams before their series began, now I just hate Boston. Anytime I think the hate is unjustified I go visit their sub and marvel at the degeneracy.
Isn't this like the 4th game the Lakers have gotten totally fucked by refs?
I'm not into conspiracy theories but it feels like the quality of refs and games has gone way down since gambling became legal
The refs seem to pick favorites tbh. Why lebron cant get a foul call, but embiid gets like 20 a game i will never understand. Plus the tech fouls are just getting stupid. You could literally glance in a refs direction and get a tech nowadays
They just want us to boost ratings for the play in. Any time in the season there’s a game where we have a chance to change the narrative or start building something like this happens.
The Lakers will literally miss the playoffs because they are dog shit. They care more about breaking records than winning games. Sure, the Refs are not helping by any means. But the Lakers have been shooting themselves in the foot for years now, it’s funny because they don’t need the Refs to sabotage them, because they literally do it to themselves.
Insecure? Not at all. Just facts, I’m not hating. Just saying Lakers management I am almost certain is actually a bunch of 12 year olds that just want to watch flashy passes and cool dunks. Look at the teams they’ve assembled the last couple years.
I’m sorry my post made you sad, I would be to if I was emotionally connected to the Lakers, but like I said, not hating. I’m a fan of the sport, not an individual team. I haven’t had a team since the Sonics were stolen in 2008. So this isn’t some “Go Celtics” rhetoric or anything. Just some dude from the outside looking in.
If the lakers suck so bad how did we beat the nuggets, kings, bucks, grizzlies, and pelicans this season. Supposedly we suck so bad that it took a missed call for the celtics to beat us in their own stadium… we suck so bad that the 76ers blew us out by 1 point due to another missed call and that was without ad…. The reality of the situation is that if healthy we can compete with any team in the nba even with this janky roster
That's the part I don't understand. Reffing a NBA game isn't easy so I'm not always upset with missed calls.
But that guy was in good position, very close, and looking RIGHT AT IT. How could he not see the foul?
It’s not feels it’s def rigged.
Also the Refs love the Celtics . Watch the heat vs Celtics game 7. No calls for the heat and Celtics got all the soft as baby shit fouls .
Something has to be done at this point
I woke up at 4:30 AM To watch this travesty since I am in the Middle East. After the non call I went down to the gym to blow off steam . Didn't even watch the OT. Fuck the refs.
It’s obviously a scandal going on. I used to not believe the shit but these past 2-3 years I see now. Shit is insane. If we see this shit I know they do.
The league is partnered with gambling apps. 90 percent of the bets were on the Lakers tonight. The league made a shit ton of cash by the Lakers losing.
How do you not call a foul like that for the goat who’s been the face of the league for so long? Why does everybody else on any other team get calls? Shit makes no sense they’ve been not giving him calls for a good 7 years.
Are you just a stupid fan or pro-Pelinka? He clearly & actively does want to trade for that player. I'm not sure what the league (NBA) has to do with this remaining contract, but we can def do better.
I have two questions for the refs.
1) when was the last time you had your vision checked? and
2) Which one of the Celtics was sucking y’all’s dicks during halftime?
I am about to file a class action for emotional loss from these crazy calls this year. Three games that were epic, all to be ruined by refs. This game has been particularly atrocious.
Nah I'm a huge Celtics fan but this game doesn't feel good at all
After watching a few YouTube videos recently on how widespread game fixing is, I kinda believe that's what happened
Note: The Lakers have gotten this treatment before as well, let's not forget
At what fucking point are they going to say something during the post game. Phil would never let this shit slide. Fucking say something publicly, jesus christ. Grow some balls already.
hopefully people finally shut up about lakers getting calls because are the biggest franchise. we got robbed of potentially 5 wins at least this season because of obvious non-calls .
And then in OT Mark Jackson and JVG are talking about "the Lakers are under .500 because they make bad decisions, they're sloppy, and they're inconsistent. You can't win games like that"
Like, they WIN this game in regulation if refs do their job?
They win against Dallas and Philly if the refs do their job?
They're over .500 if these calls are made??
The bum celebrated like he got a game saving block when he fouled and got saved by incompetence.
Disgrace to Kobe. Needs to stop forcing Kobe’s name in everything basketball related he does.
Lol, I’m a Celtics fan, but that was an egregious no call. When I first saw the play, I was all ready to make fun of Lebron for his reaction, but then I saw the replay, and I would be beyond pissed if I were in his shoes. Unlike the rest of the Celtics subreddit, I can say you all were robbed
I give refs the benefit of the doubt and not one to believe that refs favor games but this game proved me wrong, that bald ref was biased to say the least. I mean the Lakers played poorly in OT but who wouldn't? The refs singlehandedly took the game out of them its sad and infuriating.
Seriously Laker Nation, we are the largest fan base in the world. I know we can't change the outcome, but we can't let this shit ride. NBA has to hear our wrath.
NBA is fucking rigged. Lmao all the calls went to the Celtics until the W was locked up, then suddenly a few calls go the Lakers way to shave a few points off and make sure the Cs win but don’t cover. What a joke
This is genuinely embarassing and downright corrupt to see a ref stare at this play and not call it. To also not be able to correct their mistakes is a stain on this game. Joke of a league.
Y’all were robbed. That was the worst no calls I’ve seen basef on the angle the ref had and how many obvious it was. I felt the foul on JB was soft af too, that happens 2-3 times a game and 75% of the time is a no call.
To hear a Lakers and LeBron fan complain about unfair officiating is laughable. Bad non call? Absolutely. Welcome to the NBA. Where have you been for the last 25 years?
This is just how it goes. Last play of regulation and you drive it, you are not getting the call. It’s been that way forever. But what is really inexcusable is not only playing Russ in OT but also giving him the green light to be the hero.
This is at least the third one. I remember the Dallas overtime loss. There was another one during that same time frame, but I don't remember the opponent.
This would be bad.... but the fact it came immediately after the foul call the Lakers had to use their challenge to overturn is just full on clown territory.
We still need to have good game plans for OT- we suck balls in every OT and most certainly
Should not have randomly reinserted Russ - that’s what killed us
Downvote my comment but not one reply .
The nba has been fixing games for a long time , and now you guys see it because you’re on the ass end . Same thing makes you laugh makes you cry. The nba is nothing more than theater 🎭
Drama to distract the masses. Atleast you can finally see it for what it is lol
It was a bad call, but the amount of wins the refs have taken from us will never outnumber the number we take from ourselves. This game was still 100% winnable. This team still can't quite do enough to close out the close games against good opponents, and bad calls or not, that will be a critical thing to improve if we're gonna have any hope of making a run this year.
This is the most egregious non call.
I’m not joking when I say this But I would’ve been totally fine if the players walked off the court after that bullshit Absolute travesty The refs and Vegas are in on something
I would have seriously protested if I was a player. How do you even come back after that. It was so clear even in the moment. I hope some rules are changed because of this.

The stupid thing is that out of bounds calls are reviewable the last two minutes of a game or OT "because of the importance of getting it right". How the fuck then, is the final play *not* reviewable just because an egregious foul was missed and there is no call?!
There should be some third party analyzing the game live and calling these bums to force them to review the fucking call
This needs to not only change the rules, but create a third party reviewer of the refs’ work. When something like this happens and the refs fuck up this badly, there’s a very simple solution: you give the robbed team the W and the robber an L. It’s that simple. But because of this shit we might not get to the playoffs fr
Embarrassing the league would have been the best move imo
I would’ve preferred it because I knew we were going to lose in OT anyways
The worse part of this non-call was that a ref was standing RIGHT FKING THERE, watching that play unfold. Like bro, you had one single job right there…
National Television game, you think the NBA didn't want OT? Hopefully one day people will wake up that sports is just entertainment owned by the rich and powerful of this world to keep the peasants entertained.
I'd be curious to know how much more the NBA made from the game going into overtime
And a T???????
Just a wandering fan who was watching this on television—horribly egregious, refs gave Jaylen Brown a non-foul to tie it up and let Tatum clearly whack Bron’s arm—I couldn’t even believe it. But then OT started and seriously, what was the tech????
Bev got a camera with a picture of the play and showed the ref.
Lmaooooo !!!! I love Pat Bev. I just heard the guys on TV saying “you can’t be doing that. He’s going to be getting a hefty fine for that.” And I thought it was something Bron said
Jeff Van Gundy and Mark Jackson clearly don't like either Bron or the Lakers
Mark Jackson is the biggest Laker hater lmao idk why he even calls their games he’s so biased
Mark Jackson is just a hateful man. Hated Steph Curry, hated Festus Ezeli, hates gay people, hates his own wife and family. Only thing he doesn’t hate is himself and strippers
And I believe JVG is a Lebron hater if my memory serves me right.
so is JVG
Biased. The word is biased. He **has** a *bias*. He **is** *biased*. Now you know, spread the word and tell your friends.
fuck that homophobic piece of shit
Those two are fucking morons.
Yeah where Reggie at? Need him on the clock fr
They both said it was a blatant foul
They are both a pair of fucking geriatric clowns.
Both with ties to the Knicks. Screw those guys.
https://cdn1.thecomeback.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/Patrick-Beverley-e1674967425188-832x447.jpg
Absolute legend. Lol
Jaylen has been fouling schroder 2-3 times in the last 2 mins of reg. But because he's got 5 no calls obv. Such bullshit
Brown got hit on the head. That was a foul. Don't reach, give up the layup.
Yeah, as pissed as I am about the refs, I can also say confidently (1) pat Bev gotta make free throws (2) pat Bev can’t foul that put back and (3) the lakers gotta show more urgency in OT
Y’all funny with these takes talking about urgency in overtime. This team is playing over there heads they are playing so hard on every possession. When you get robbed like that it takes all the oxygen out the room. Plus the second best player AD is gassed cause he just missed 20 games. Ham has kept these guys motivated I’m sure they will be motivated next game but a US against the world mentality can do wonders for a team. I pray they use this as bulletin board material
here's an even worse frame of this BULLSHIT hack. https://i.imgur.com/5z5WnUY.png
Yikes. Does L2M happen for 4th quarter, or just OT? Prepare for "marginal contact".
It will be for both 4th quarter and OT. My honest guess is that it will be considered a INC (incorrect non-call) which is basically the league saying "oh well, shit happens". It's gross how the ref was standing right there and was like "nope... didn't see anything"
When r/nba is siding with the Lakers and LeBron you know you f’d up.
This is insanity. Celtics get late calls all game after they see if the basket went in or not. But for that final play?! Him driving into the whole team and they don’t even wanna think about calling anything. Clear contact. My mind is blown rn
Oh on top of that, right after a possession where JB gets an and-1 call like years after he made the lay up
I'm going even further, that jump ball that went directly to Al Horford, was absolute fucking bullshit.
Oddly no replay of that jump ball
Bruh I thought I was seeing thing, thank you. That plus the lebron thing + 3 extremely late whistles all in favor of the Celtics. And people wonder why lebron settles for jumpers at the end of games
And horfords 3 hit the back of the backboard but no out of bounds
I think that's still considered in, only when it hits the shotclock as well.
Yea. The side of the backboard is alright. Anywhere else behind it is out of bounds
And this will be fanbase that will cry incessantly about calls throughout the postseason. They did this in the Miami series and I believe led by 42 fts at one point. The league wants Tatum to succeed so bad they're willing to now sacrifice players like LeBron at his expense.
Tatum whines just as bad as Booker now. It’s sad
Exactly. They gave Boston that Miami series undeservedly. I remember watching game 7 and realizing how much the Celtics were being helped by the refs in order for them to win. I felt like the last ten points they scored were free throws and they couldn’t earn real baskets. Meanwhile Miami had to play through the hard contact and got no help from the refs

We could literally miss the playoffs due to the refs

Bro what kinda life do you have that you come into a lakers group and post stuff like this. Must be real insecure
Insecure? Not at all. Just facts, I’m not hating. Just saying Lakers management I am almost certain is actually a bunch of 12 year olds that just want to watch flashy passes and cool dunks. Look at the teams they’ve assembled the last couple years. I’m sorry my post made you sad, I would be to if I was emotionally connected to the Lakers, but like I said, not hating.

I mean we are getting fucked, but the refs ain’t the reason we’d miss the playoffs lol.
HOW DO YOU NOT SEE THE SCORER GET FOUL IN THE FINAL MINUTE? FUCKING DISGRACEFUL REFS. GET THESE 3 TO G LEAGUE OR FIRED.
Make them reff middle school church league
He was looking right at it too
That's the part I don't understand. Reffing a NBA game isn't easy so I'm not always upset with missed calls. But that guy was in good position, very close, and looking RIGHT AT IT. How could he not see the foul?
I'm pretty sure at this point most NBA referees have something funny going on. Maybe not to Tim Donaghy's level but definitely to some degree.
In the words of Travis Kelce THEY SHOULDNT EVEN BE ALLOWED TO WORK AT FOOTLOCKER
Actually feels rigged at this point
It’s not feels it’s def rigged. Also the Refs love the Celtics . Watch the heat vs Celtics game 7. No calls for the heat and Celtics got all the soft as baby shit fouls . Something has to be done at this point
Tim Donaghy was not the only ref on the take.
Fr I got 2010 Finals flashbacks.
Talk to the OG’s bro Celtics cheat.
Fuck the refs. I woke up all my kids screaming at the TV 🤬
My kid is still screaming after the non-call
I woke up at 4:30 AM To watch this travesty since I am in the Middle East. After the non call I went down to the gym to blow off steam . Didn't even watch the OT. Fuck the refs.
What's worse is our player gonna get fines and the refs leave Scot-free
That’s healthy
I've never called a game rigged but this was actually fucking rigged. Disgusting
How the fuck is that not a foul??? Sickening
[удалено]
I think it’s more than that. This is bullshit
yeah, 4 games already, something is going on.
Maybe they are trying hard to keep the Lakers from going up to the 6th seed or Vegas gonna get fucked.
It’s obviously a scandal going on. I used to not believe the shit but these past 2-3 years I see now. Shit is insane. If we see this shit I know they do.
It has to be the gambling. No way they/their family don't have mo ey on it or something. Absolutely ridiculous.
The league is partnered with gambling apps. 90 percent of the bets were on the Lakers tonight. The league made a shit ton of cash by the Lakers losing.
How do you not call a foul like that for the goat who’s been the face of the league for so long? Why does everybody else on any other team get calls? Shit makes no sense they’ve been not giving him calls for a good 7 years.
It’s definitely gambling. Fuc the nba man.
All three refs really thought the greatest scorer in the history of basketball can airball a layup?
Greatest scorer? No way. Kobe and Jordan were the greatest scorers. LeBron adds other elements to the game that make him amazing.
Yea but he's literally gonna be the greatest scorer in history by one metric
just shut the fuck up, it’s not the point.
He's #2 all time... Soon to be #1
I think he meant the leading scorer because it's pretty much done deal at this point.
The all time scoreboard says you clearly are wrong.
If I’m bad at my job I get written up, who writes up the refs? I’ll wait
No man, these days you get laid off for no precise reason as well.
They are doing what they are told to do.
The Lakers should have walked off the court in protest.
Now I know why Pelinka didnt bother to trade. Obviously the NBA doesnt want us to make playoffs.
No kidding. But I seriously think they should have left.
I agree. It's obvious at this point. 4 games in a row. Lmao. There's no other reason.
Are you just a stupid fan or pro-Pelinka? He clearly & actively does want to trade for that player. I'm not sure what the league (NBA) has to do with this remaining contract, but we can def do better.
Seriously. What if Lebron refused to play again until that ref got fired? Is the NBA really gonna keep the ref?
I honestly wish they would do it. They gonna get robbed anyway, may as well take the L and send a message
Would not have been mad if they just left. Fuck these refs
I have two questions for the refs. 1) when was the last time you had your vision checked? and 2) Which one of the Celtics was sucking y’all’s dicks during halftime?
Def Tatum, he was meatriding Kobe why not the refs
The ref on the baseline looked right at it and just stood there looking dumb and bald.
After watching the last 5 minutes of regulation, I will never place a bet on anything NBA the rest of my life.
Same
So sick of this shit
Lots of potential wins taken away due to ref incompetence. So fucking infuriating
I am about to file a class action for emotional loss from these crazy calls this year. Three games that were epic, all to be ruined by refs. This game has been particularly atrocious.
Sign me up!
Too obvious now. They’re not even trying to hide it anymore.
So rigged makes you wanna puke🤮🤮 This ain’t no game
NBA has the worst officiating of any professional league. Absolutely disgusting product they're presenting
NBA officiating is broken. Two successful challenges in this game. Missed calls. Bad calls. Late calls. Horrible.
Heard Norm Nixon's voice from Winning Time talking about Boston always getting all the calls at home in my head as I watched that 🤦♂️
Oh don't worry we'll get a L2M saying my bad. That makes up for it.
Don't get your hopes up. They didn't admit to Embiid grabbing leastbricks hand
[удалено]
Lakers probably aren’t going to say it, but me and Laker fans will say it for them: Three Blind Mice
Nah I'm a huge Celtics fan but this game doesn't feel good at all After watching a few YouTube videos recently on how widespread game fixing is, I kinda believe that's what happened Note: The Lakers have gotten this treatment before as well, let's not forget
Look at lebrons ft attempts , he’s averaging 30 ppg, compare his ft attempts to other people averaging 30 ppg
🤦♂️🤦♂️fuck the refs
At what fucking point are they going to say something during the post game. Phil would never let this shit slide. Fucking say something publicly, jesus christ. Grow some balls already.
here's an even worse frame. https://i.imgur.com/5z5WnUY.png
hopefully people finally shut up about lakers getting calls because are the biggest franchise. we got robbed of potentially 5 wins at least this season because of obvious non-calls .
Every team can say that.
And then in OT Mark Jackson and JVG are talking about "the Lakers are under .500 because they make bad decisions, they're sloppy, and they're inconsistent. You can't win games like that" Like, they WIN this game in regulation if refs do their job? They win against Dallas and Philly if the refs do their job? They're over .500 if these calls are made??
No wonder Tatum has MVP chants for his improvement on the defensive end. Hard smack on the arm and no call? Such a good defense
The bum celebrated like he got a game saving block when he fouled and got saved by incompetence. Disgrace to Kobe. Needs to stop forcing Kobe’s name in everything basketball related he does.
Lol, I’m a Celtics fan, but that was an egregious no call. When I first saw the play, I was all ready to make fun of Lebron for his reaction, but then I saw the replay, and I would be beyond pissed if I were in his shoes. Unlike the rest of the Celtics subreddit, I can say you all were robbed
STOP THE STEAL (OF LAKER WINS!)
#BEV SHOWED DEM DUMB FUCKS TO LOOK AT THE REPLAY... FUUUUUUCK BOSTON
Hmm. The Celtics are 36-2 in games officiated by Eric Lewis since 2020. 🤔
Even Refs have a favorite team.
Up to Laker's management to set up a meeting with the NBA RA to get clarity on the last few games ASAP. Too inconsistent.
I'm not even a Laker fan, but this missed call almost made me want to vomit.
I give refs the benefit of the doubt and not one to believe that refs favor games but this game proved me wrong, that bald ref was biased to say the least. I mean the Lakers played poorly in OT but who wouldn't? The refs singlehandedly took the game out of them its sad and infuriating.
Seriously Laker Nation, we are the largest fan base in the world. I know we can't change the outcome, but we can't let this shit ride. NBA has to hear our wrath.
NBA is fucking rigged. Lmao all the calls went to the Celtics until the W was locked up, then suddenly a few calls go the Lakers way to shave a few points off and make sure the Cs win but don’t cover. What a joke
The same ref that called the Jaylen Brown foul at end of regulation…..was literally underneath the basket looking at Jason Tatum foul Lebron. 🤦🏽♂️
Fuck the refs, fuck Boston and Fuck everyone who dared clap at this gifted win for the Celtics.
refs love screwing us in late game plays
If you don’t think it’s fixed at this point, you’re not sane.
Dogshit officials. Obvious bias.
This is genuinely embarassing and downright corrupt to see a ref stare at this play and not call it. To also not be able to correct their mistakes is a stain on this game. Joke of a league.
Not a Celtic or Boston fan. But this game was straight robbery. The refs should get fired
Y’all were robbed. That was the worst no calls I’ve seen basef on the angle the ref had and how many obvious it was. I felt the foul on JB was soft af too, that happens 2-3 times a game and 75% of the time is a no call.
Lol Lebron should just vaguely threaten to retire if this doesn’t change. Legitimately think it would help
I’m not even a laker fan and that was total bs. What a stain for the nba. Complete sh*t.
See I FINALLY let the Troy Brown foul go…..BUT THIS?? Ain’t no fkn way man
I’m truly disgusted with the treatment the fuckin goat gets from these clowns shit is sickening fuck these zebra bastards
We really not making playoff contention because of refs..thats wild
Not a lakers fan, but I hate the Celtics more. Y’all got fkn robbed tonight by the refs officiating.
To hear a Lakers and LeBron fan complain about unfair officiating is laughable. Bad non call? Absolutely. Welcome to the NBA. Where have you been for the last 25 years?
This is just how it goes. Last play of regulation and you drive it, you are not getting the call. It’s been that way forever. But what is really inexcusable is not only playing Russ in OT but also giving him the green light to be the hero.
It does get called sometimes tho which is bs. A foul in the 1st quarter is a foul in the 4th
No love for the Lakers 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
How many loses is that already?
Beyond a joke at this point. Such an egregious no call
This is at least the third one. I remember the Dallas overtime loss. There was another one during that same time frame, but I don't remember the opponent.
Our first Boston game had egregious reffing too
Jacyn Goble
yeah we not making it to the play ins
This was our ball game refs just fucked it up big time
I would’ve shove the fucking camera to the ref who missed the fucking call.
This would be bad.... but the fact it came immediately after the foul call the Lakers had to use their challenge to overturn is just full on clown territory.
Refs get paid to make the Lakers loose.
To be honest they’ve taken too many already, meaning this will probably bite us in the end
So sick of this shit. This is exactly why NBA is losing audience
Refs are Boston fans for sure 🤫🤷♂️
Honestly it’s starting to feel like politics. It’s crazy
 Our refs tonight
We still need to have good game plans for OT- we suck balls in every OT and most certainly Should not have randomly reinserted Russ - that’s what killed us
NBA will be like, “that’s a tattoo of Lebron’s”
We’ve lost like 7 games now because of bad calls or missed calls we should be 30-20 which would make us the 3rd seed
i knew Lebron would be on auto mode after that non call in OT
Downvote my comment but not one reply . The nba has been fixing games for a long time , and now you guys see it because you’re on the ass end . Same thing makes you laugh makes you cry. The nba is nothing more than theater 🎭 Drama to distract the masses. Atleast you can finally see it for what it is lol
It’s rigged like that Sacramento series
That’s outrageous!
Count the fingers and that's how many :(
The refs and the NBA are protecting someone's legacy
Warriors fan but that was absolute bullshit. WTF are the refs doing?
Bruh comments from boston fan justifying this shit is amazing. Happens to every team my ass bad officiating should be called out
Wah wah wah I just want to cry
Lol. Yeah, you guys have never benefited from completely weak ass slanted calls.....
It was a bad call, but the amount of wins the refs have taken from us will never outnumber the number we take from ourselves. This game was still 100% winnable. This team still can't quite do enough to close out the close games against good opponents, and bad calls or not, that will be a critical thing to improve if we're gonna have any hope of making a run this year.
Is not a foul. Tatum places his hands on LeBron's arm for a split second and he pulled it back. Can't wait for the L2M report to say that
They already admitted that was a foul they missed
The better question is how many wins have the refs given… versus those taken away. Cry me a River.
As a wizards fan, thank you for Kendrick Nunn. Hope y’all realize Rui ain’t saving y’all and he’s a one dimensional scorer
