With the way the refs are trying to fix the game they are going to have to bomb a lot of outside shots. They go inside Cavs will just hack them with impunity.

I agree with the sentiment re: officials, but if they don't attack the basket they'll lose this game easily. Gotta stay aggressive.

NBA has been fixed for as long as I can remember. It's closer to the WWE than the other big three sports as it's more focused on storylines and superstars than the game itself.

I am so impressed with the Raps energy level on defence. They're like buzz saws out there. Keep driving to the rim and they'll eventually have to start calling some fouls. No let's finish this quarter strong.

The crowds have lived up to the hype. Pretty impressive.

Refs must be getting handys from Lebron between quarters. Disgusting.

Really? How many foul shots have they taken in the last 3 quarters?

These guys are nothing. Refs in their pocket and still down by 16

That awful foul call on Biyombo very key as its his third. Feels like they should be up 25 if not for the atrocious officiating.

It must be getting awfully tempting to give JV a few minutes with Big Bis at 3 fouls.

Anyways, great half. One more just like that please.

Casey needs to be quiet in his next interview. Ujiri meanwhile should take a turn and go straight at Silver / call this cheating jerk out. Zero free throws in 3 quarters / there isn't even a question that this series is fixed.

From ESPN Stats: When the Cavs' committed their first defensive foul in the first half, there was 28:40 that had gone by since they committed a foul at the 1:37 mark of the third quarter in Game 3. Dwane Casey's head may explode.

How were those not fouls on Bis! K, seriously. I'm not the guy who bitches about refs. Hell, I'm a casual basketball fan at best. But my jaw is just agape right now.

Derozans really been stepping up this quarter. Especially with the cavs on this run.
