As much as we got screwed last night I'd rather have a quicker, smoother game than slow it down even more.
Bad calls happen, it's an unfortunate part of all sports. Usually by the end of the season (if not by the end of the game) the bad calls even out for teams.
These league's need to just put more money into training young referees to come up so that they can have more strict standards for the ones in the league. But to jump to conclusions and extremes like applying fines, adding refs or having video replay on foul calls is the wrong way to go about the game.
The Raptors lost a regular season game last night and they lost for a variety of reasons, not just officiating. That doesn't excuse the call but it also should not be a reason to slow down all the other 2500 games a year for the sake of being perfect.

I shut this game off well before any of this happened. I hate the officiating in this league more than any other so I am glad I did shut this crap game off early because I would have been extra salty today. I think they need to set up a system where you can only make a call if you are in direct line of sight with the play. Far too often you see an out of position ref make a call where his/her line of site was clearly blocked by other players but they make a call anyway.

The easiest fix for the reffing issues would be to allow the coaches to challenge one single play in the game. If they get the call wrong they lose a timeout and the other team gets a technical free throw. If a team is out of timeouts they can't use the challenge.
It shouldn't slow down the game that much.. maybe a few minutes as they review the video. It should help at least for close calls at the end of the game.
