Stop this whining about refs. Lowry, Leonard and Siakam were not good enough last night to beat an injury depleted, sick GSW team.
Why TF should we give them a pass for NOT doing their job?
Our players didn't play well that's a given, and credit to GSW's D or their game plan,
but you can't blame our players for not being 'good enough',
they did their best despite the challenge that is a well oiled champion team with a very good coach.
Let's stop with this defeatist attitude and GIVE RESPECT to your team, for crying out loud.

I knew you were going to say 'because its the NBA'. That's not good enough. The league shouldn't be in the business of handing out competitive advantages.
To defeat the Warriors I don't know if they can do it if they also must defeat the refs.
Maybe you were a little overconfident about our victory. We are not good enough to play like shit and defeat a dynastic squad like the Warriors.
We need to execute better on multiple fronts, and if we do so, we can still win this series. (Depending of course on whether KD returns and what his impact is.)

Referees make mistakes. They're humans. Their job is to call it to the best of their abilities, just because a few people think they did a bad job last night does not mean there was a conspiracy against the Raptors
It's just this constant bad officiating that we always complain about for how long now,
and what's the league doing about it,
other than the stupid make up calls by the refs that usually don't matter?
NBA is a multi billion $ enterprise and Silver can't fix this?
Btw, that call MIGHT cost us the championship in the end.
Think about that

We play in the league as it is, not in the league we wish it would be. You have to play through bad calls. It's just facts, it happens every year, and expecting otherwise is pure fantasy.

For my take on the officiating, the end result of the fouls doesn't mean as much as the way they came. And anyone who read that article earlier this year about Donaghy and crooked NBA reffing should know that the refs can EASILY dramatically impact the game in the early stages with fouls that handcuff a team and then go ahead and balance out calls in a less impactful way later on to cover up any perceived bias. Last night was one of those classic Raptors games where we got bent over on the momentum calls and with early piling up of calls on our important players. Some calls the refs were forced to call, sure... others, way too many, were just unquestionably super suspect and had the effect to prevent us from cracking the game open in the way we were on the verge of. Absolutely, we didn't execute in any way shape or form that we needed to in the end, however we were fully doing so until about the 15th time we got effed by the officiating.
