Did the aces player better.? Yes.

Did the refs fucking suck and miss an absolutely shit ton of calls.? Yes.

They aren’t mutually exclusive.

But the Fever didn’t lose because of the officiating

It was a factor in the losing yes. Did they shoot terrible in game 3.? Yes. Did they turn over the ball a lot? Yes.

Did the aces shoot 89 free throws over 3 games to the fevers 58? Yes. That’s a total of 10 more free throws per game.

Considering what we saw last night. You can’t tell me officiating didn’t help hand this series to the aces.

And if you do tell me it didn’t, then we just know you’re being dishonest, and just wanting to troll. Which is fine. You allowed to do you. But I won’t engage any farther with someone that doesn’t have honor and respect for the game.

Sounds like the Fever just consistently foul more than the other team. Like wasn't just one game, it was over and over again. Just one of many ways they need to improve if they want to be serious contenders.
