I mean, he's got a point, the NBA didn't do anything when Sterling's BS was exposed in an actual court of law. Hopefully this time it'll be different but we'll see.

hate that the league addresses missed calls, wouldnt be bad if they didnt only list one call per game
happens all the time where there are 3-5 questionable/missed calls down the stretch for team A, but the last missed call is on team A and causes team B to win
so the next day its "team B only won because of a missed call", when a bunch of calls before that went in team A's favor
either point out all missed calls in a game, or none of them

Yeah but this might baloon into a public embarrasment.
That other scandal never got to the mainstream, this might.
If you see good morning america talking about this then the NBA will have to do something, problem is, what can they do?

dwight should have gotten more fts, but thats homecourt advantage and/or they wont call that stuff in the playoffs. harden doesnt get fouled much, and he doesnt attack the basket like lillard so obviously lillard will get more fts
hard to draw fouls on 20 seconds of iso dribbling then a step back 20 footer
except for the dwight stuff on offense the refs are letting them play, if you want lamarcus to stay off the line dont reach in for steals. a frail guy like him will get a foul call while dwight wont.
when chris paul blatantly fouls someone its "being crafty" but when the blazers do it its "refs really biased today"
Have you even been watching this series... The reason all these ****** in here hate Harden is because he gets so many calls his way when he drives
They have not been giving Harden the calls he usually gets when he drives and hes getting bumped like Lilard every time
Harden was top 5 in FT attemps this season idk where Lilard was
Harden has shot 23 this series
Lilard has shot 33
If anything that should be switched around..
No reason Lilard should be shooting more FTs than Harden he does not drive more than james
He resorted to step backs cuz refs were obviously not gonna give em a call
So because hes "Frail" he gets a pass and they should call touch fouls...
O okay you make a ton of sense with that logic
You say boys shouldnt be swiping at LMA what about all those swipes LMA did that warranted what...
NO FOUL
Its painful to see the them favoring Portland

Social media is driving this one hard, I hope that's going to be what causes a reaction. They can't even find a reason to deflect this one elsewhere.
Federal court cases aren't interesting enough to the masses, this is the kind of drama that people love to get involved with.

The NBA needs more Jerry Buss's and Mark Cubans and less Donald Sterlings, Dan Gilbert's, and James Dolans.

hardens foul drawing tactics dont work in the playoffs, defenders know what he does and they dont fall for it. theres a difference between playing basketball and getting fouled like lillard does and playing basketball to get fouled like harden tries to do.

refs dont let him get away with his garbage offense so hes suffering from it. maybe if he wanted to contribute he would actually play some defense or pass the ball before taking 32 dribbles.
watch an okc thunder game, frail guys always get foul calls thats just the way it is in the nba. learn from it and stop hacking him because its going to be a foul everytime

Since when did Nene become such a goon 
He's usually one of the more composed cats out there. I think he just knew he could eff Butler up so went for it...stupid in the long run.
I give Butler props for not being a punk. Came up big after that moment too.

Nene has had his share of altercations and contentious moments in the court.
Was suspended in 09 I Denver for a head butting incident. Also 4 games in 05 for fighting with Michael Olowokandi. He's gotten better but always been a irritant type.

He's not ******ed he's wealthy. And once you reach that point you can say and do almost anything you want.
He's not crazy. He's eccentric.
Glad I recorded the second half and sportscenter since I had a feeling the game would run long. A lot of excitement but the amount of free throws towards the end of games can be super boring and annoying.

Exactly!
Can't honor his recently found inner thug or all these cats who swear this clown is a goon and "bout that life"
We're gonna need Boozer to earn some of that salary and start bodying this cat.

Just rewatched OT.
- Dwight absolutely got slapped hard on the arm on the first shot in OT.
- not one single Rocket ran over to check on Lin after he got fouled hard by LMA. As a metter of fact, Dwight was standing right there but he instead turned to talk to the ref about the slap on the previous play.
- Mike Breen tried to save JVG after the razor comment, "please retract that statement" & "there are less violent ways for you to get that free timeout". Loose lip Jeff wasn't trying to be saved though.
- gotta appreciate not one single TV timeout or commercial break in OT. Good stuff ESPN.
I noticed the same thing about noody helping Lin but I did see parsons come in the help him as the camera cut away. But yeah it was noticeable immediately. I watched it ten minutes ago
Didnt notice no timeouts in OT since I was fast forwarding the whole second half.
JVG should have just said ketchup packets hahahahhaha

The way some of y'all are talking you would be happier watching a 3 hour free throw shooting contest than any semblance of a game.

Exactly...I hope you guys are right about this bringing Sterling down but....
This is the same guy who brought chicks in the locker room to look at players' big black ____
Got sued by the FEDERAL GOVT for not renting to minorities and having substandard conditions at housing he owned
...and was sued by a former GM for racial discrimination and was CLEARLY wrong and got off with no punishment
All the while the NBA didn't flinch. Some audio by an ex-gf ain't goin' no where

NeNe better not be suspended for game 4. That clown Jimmy Butler got into it with Wizards security during the Bulls shoot around before the game last night. He hit a 3, we lost by 3 so the league should let that be it IMO.
Side note, John Wall needs to shoot 1,000 free throws today.
