NBA is fixed.

[jibikao]

Period.

How was that not a FKING foul when two guys hitting Nash, grabbing him?? They call a jumpball??? WTF??

 

[HooverDam]

Its not fixed.

Period.

The Suns are playing like crap and so are the officials. But a good team should be able to easily over come bad officiating. The games shouldnt even be close enough where the officials decide the game.

 

[bratwurst]

Welcome to 10 years ago. Its always been this way.

 

[football24/7]

They may be struggling, but call the fouls when then happen, and when they ARE SO FRIGGIN OBVIOUS. THAT NON CALL WAS PURE BS.

 

[Ryanwb]

Welcome to 10 years ago. Its always been this way.

Yeah, it's the WWE of the professional world.

 

[justAndy]

don't worry about it - the NBA and ABC are going to get what they want.
Yes - tne Suns got jobbed - but they should have played better.
F you LA.
F you NBA.

I don't agree with this. I admitted we play bad for the past 3 games. But today, we had the game twice. The first time ref CAN easily make the call since Laker was behind and they WANT to foul. Nash lost it. Ok, fine. The second time, two players were HACKING Nash and a freaking jumpball with only a few seconds left? You gotta be kidding me.

 

[bratwurst]

Now thats spirit.

 

[justAndy]

i'm still pissed.
Is the NBA the same as pro Wrasslin?
F you Hollywood.

 

[mribnik]

Just as bad as Lebron James the other day when he took about 10 steps on his way to his "game-winning" layup.

 

[goldseraph]

I'm DONE watching the entire playoffs. Screw the NBA, I've wasted so much time this year watching games, supporting the Suns. I feel like a sucker. It's disgusting how on Inside the NBA they are gushing over the Lakers and Kobe winning this game now, Kobe getting interviewed and being all smug. I had to turn off my TV before I smashed it. I'm just pissed that the enjoyment of the NBA has been ruined for me. I don't know what it is about the Suns, we are cursed.

Same here. I won't watch any more after Suns lost. What's the point....

 

[boondockdrunk]

Yeah, it's the WWE of the professional world.

And because of this I stopped watching both before I hit puberty.

yeah dude...i remember 7 years ago the same thing happenend. I think it was the same ref.

Wasn't a foul buddy. Good basketball defense. Nash shouldn't have picked up his dribble. Pass it to a teammate, call timeout do something. Don't run right into a half-court trap and pick up your dribble.

Oh btw, Nash got away with a push off on Sasha. Irony.

Nash was trying to call for a time-out, but for some reason the ref's missed that too.

Everyone watching the game knows that you try for the steal on the inbounds pass and if that doesn't work, then you foul immediately. You tell me how many times you have seen a game where they call for a jump ball in the last 15 seconds of a game on an inbounds pass.

The call was BS and yes it did change the outcome of the game.

I'll keep watching... I have no team, really.... I like the Suns and watch them primarily because they are in the same town as the Cards, but I will continue to watch to see Kobe's team go down...

I don't have a dislike for the Laker's but I just really cannot stand Kobe Bryant...

Nash DID NOT try to call a timeout. He even admitted that during his post-game interview. You are just making things up.

That wasn't a foul. Not obvious hack. Nash screwed up and picked up his dribble and ran right into a trap.

1) Correct, Nash did not yell timeout. Boris did. Nash heard him and was waiting for the whistle.

2) Luke Walton's foot was out of bounds when the jump ball was called. It should not have been a jumpball.

3) Nash was being manhandled at the time.

These 3 are facts. And yet, the Lakers get the ball and win the game.

Yeah, that's what happened. Are you blind, dumb, and stupid? Or are you just so much of an "Ocho" fan you can't see truth or reality?

Here is truth and reality - In that situation, 100% of teams are trying to get an easy steal and once they can't do that, they grab and hold onto opponent in order get a foul and stop the clock. That is what happened, the Lakers pushed Nash to the baseline and held onto him (and the ball) in order to get a foul called and clocked stopped. Interestingly enough, one of the Lakers had his foot out-of-bounds, the one that got the jumpball.

Whichever way you cut it, the call should have been one of two - foul, or dead ball. Both of which would have given the Suns the ball back. Instead, officials chose to ignore the shoves and pushes and foot out-of-bounds and call for a jump ball.

So, Mr. "ODE TO OCHO", take your trolling and insight elsewhere. Preferrably a place inhabited by minds like yours.

Truth and Reality. Truth is, you don't dribble straight into a half-court trap and pick up you're dribble. You learn in that in Boys and Girls club basketball. Nash gave the Lakers an oppurtunity to get a jump ball, they took it.

Walton's foot was on the line BEFORE he had Nash tied up. Diaw was calling timeout AFTER Nash was already tied up. He did not have control.

Yes, that's right. For making that one mistake, the Suns deserve to forfeit the game. Any mistakes that the Lakers may have made, including ones in direct violation of the rules, aren't relevant.

 

[golfcardfan]

Ode to Ocho get off your obvious laker gay love and leave your wrong and thousands agree the suns got hosed. The only people who think that game was close to fair are laker fans.

lol Nash did not have control? How can he have control when two guys were hacking him and when Laker NEEDED to give a foul to get the ball back? My god. Fakers are fakers.

The ball was in the best free throw shooter in the league. He had the ball. All the Suns need was to hold on to it because Laker needed to give fouls. The game wasn't tied. Sure, Nash could call timeout but Faker would still need to hack again.

Man, you freaking Fakers should just shut up. You guys got the benefit of doubt and STILL come here to talk non-sense. Don't be such a dick. Faker got the win and what more do you want?

This guy is TROLLING by the way. Only 13 posts.
