Every time a team loses these days, its becuaes they choked. Its never because the other team was actually better.
Normally I agree (especially about my 2011 Mavs), but in this case, it's hard to ignore all those missed putback shots at the end of the game. Everything was in the Raptor's favor.
But why do I get the sense the Raptors blow them out tonight just to prove how wacky sports is?
Let's not pretend LeBron doesn't have the refs on his team.
I see evidence for the opposite. He gets the same treatment Shaq got from what I see. Because he's big and strong the refs let more contact go with him.
And if they were on his side they certainly wouldn't have called that turnover against him in the Pacers series. That could have lost them the series.
And then there is this no-call in the last 3 minutes of game 7 of the freaking NBA Finals.
I dare anyone to find a call that bad in the worst possible situation (could have cost them a ring) for any other star player.
