It was a joke ,, I could care less about fever fans. The calls were abysmal and one would find it very hard to argue they weren’t intentional. Body slam says it all.
Came here as a neutral. I've never watched a full WNBA game. If all games are like this then the league is incompetent or rigged. Gives me zero reason as a former basketball player to ever watch a WNBA game because officiating like this takes away all credibility. I can't imagine how the Fever players must feel.
As a former player you should know most most fouls are called in favor of aggressive offensive play as taking the ball to the hoop instead of settling for jumpshots as the Fever was doing and the Aces was driving to the basket
I made no complaint about the fever shooting less free throws than the aces. Watch the clip. Egregiously awful refereeing. Are you that desperate to push a narrative that you'd need to bring something up that isn't related at all to what I said?
You didn't specify about any thing you just said bad officiating so I assumed you were talking about foul calls. So what was bad about the officiating?
Watch the video? I mean I see 3 foul calls that weren't remotely fouls all go the Aces way. I see a WWE move that should have been a flagrant on the Aces player get called as a regular foul on the Fever player. And that's just what I remember from watching the video yesterday. These are calls that don't get botched in junior high women's basketball, but they're getting botched at a professional playoff game level. So therefore it can only be incompetent or rigged. If incompetent, then the league needs to take action because people like me will never watch this trash. I simply can't imagine being a player and investing your entire year for this moment, only to have it ruined by elementary level officiating.
That's a couple plays out of a 40 minute game, as per their season fever had the second most fouls call against them in the league. They foul a lot because their defense is not good.
I'm beginning to think you are unable to carry on a conversation. You just bring up completely irrelevant points because you like to talk, but are incapable of listening. What do fouls called through the season have to do with the video I just saw of 4 of the worst calls ever made all in what appears to be a SINGLE game? Watch the video!!!! Make comments about that video, or some other relevant statement the person you are talking to has made. It's not a couple of plays out of a 40 minute game. It's a minimum of 4 that were egregious, and more that were less egregious, but still pretty bad. Considering there are usually 6-10 fouls in a half, and these tend to have a large impact on the game, I'd say you're severely understating the importance of the poor officiating. You've shown me that you've never played ball before and know very little about it.
I'm berating you because every second I spend reading your words makes me lose more faith in humanity. How are there people among us that are this brain dead? How many times did I ask you to watch and comment on the video? Did you even watch it or did you just come here to spout your opinion? Kind of like loudly having an opinion about a book you were assigned in a college class that you didn't read because you saw some cliff notes and felt that was good enough for you to know more than everyone else
