Gonna be a hold on to your butts finish. Good chance the refs are the decider.

The Raps are like 5 for 30 from 3. If the refs decide it they have no one to blame but themselves. This is pathetic.

How many offensive rebounds are the Raps gonna give up?

They're 9/28, not great but not end of the world stuff. Sixers are 11/30 by comparison.

How did they call that Kawhi block a foul? It was so clean.

Thank God for Leonard. Look at the stats. How can the centres and Lowry not have one foul shot? I get that the refs haven’t been good but there’s no excuse for not being aggressive enough on the offence.

That last foul even the ABC guys were laughing how farcical it was for Embiid. He gets silly calls. F him and the refs.

Ibaka was awesome today too. It's so huge to a contribution like that from the bench, even it it's only one guy. He helped us stay in the game on the boards.

Let's go win a home game now.

Gutsy win, great defensive effort as well. You gotta think the shots will start to fall, but they can still win this series with high level defense even if the shooting doesn't come.

I've never seen a player who shoots the 3 like he's angry at that little spot at the back of the rim. Every Leonard 3 just barely arcs over the front of the rim, hits the back of it hard and drops straight down.

So three blown calls, plus two questionable against the Raptors in one quarter, can anyone honestly claim NBA officiating is just bad for everyone?

The narrative before was "well Toronto doesn't have superstars, the NBA refs towards favouring stars". Sure, and it's true, but they must also ref towards markets. We have a top 5 NBA star now and he looks like a deer in headlights with how much he has to fight through playing for Toronto.

Why are the Bucks being allowed to beat the Celtics then, primarily off getting tons of foul calls (most of them right to be fair)? Refs are just straight up terrible, the conspiracy era was the Stern era, this is just the incompetence era. Adam Silver is more like Goodell where if the money is flowing, nothing will change.

Wasn't the previous match fixing issues due to the underworld directly to refs rather than NBA directive? I'll have to read up on that again.
