I understand what your saying and respect your opinion on the game. This championship game may play out the way you say but that wasn't the question. I believe the perception is that both teams like a fast paced game and I don't believe this Total 153.5 will come down. That's just an opinion and I also feel this game may go off at -PK-. Personally I took this game +2 off of this assumption
N.Caro 26/73 35.6%
4/27 3's 14.8%
15/26 FT's 57.7% That's the Champs
Gonzo 20/59 33.9%
8/19 42% That's Good
17/26 FT's 65.4%
Watching a Gilligan's Island Rerun would have been better. The Kid from Gonzo rolled his ankle and came back to try being a hero and in trying thought he was alone and threw team play right out the window.
It was brutal. It was refereed like a high school game. They were allowing more contact outside than they were in the paint. Refs did their best to ruin what was looking to be a good game. Both teams were in the bonus 7 minutes into the 2nd half. Let em bang a little. I'm also in favor of dumping all reviews in all sports. I turn off any game I am watching when they have one, sometimes i find my way back to the game is all the other games have reviews too. They don't even get all the reviews right. If you aren't going to get them all right, don't waste the time, just fucking play.
Then when they take a review I was 9 minutes real time and they come up with a phantom flagrant foul on karnowski
I don't think Few really called anything on the last one outside of getting a quick 2. Williams-Goss had no intention of giving the ball up even though the 3 he took on the previous possession showed he had no lift after the ankle injury. Hero ball rarely ends well.
The last 2 minutes of an NBA game are the worst as far as replays go. Any time there's a scramble and the ball goes out of bounds, inevitably it leads to going to the monitor for a replay. It happens so often and ruins the flow of the game, sometimes the replay is obvious, but it still takes a long time for the refs to decide who gets the ball. The other thing that bothers me is the free timeout the teams get, while the refs are looking at the replay, both teams get to huddle. If you have no timeouts left, all you need is two players to go for the ball, it goes out of bounds, and during the review, you get a free end of game timeout. What I would do is anytime there's a replay needed, keep both teams on the court and away from their bench, let them stand together on the court while the refs decide who's ball it is and not let them huddle on the sideline with the coaches, just my thoughts
you mean this would have been reviewed?

They call a brutal flagrant foul on review and don't review this. I know the "rule" but the "rule" is stupid. If you are a foot shorter than someone, guess what, you will at some point probably take a shot to the head/face. It doesn't make it flagrant. Earlier in the year, I saw Taco Fall catch a ball in the post, keep the ball over his head like you are taught, turn and shoot a jump hook and they called a flagrant foul on him after a review. It was a basketball move. The biggest issue with all these new rules is they are taking the decision away from the refs/umps, and that is making refs/umps worse. They can't decide on simple things now. Obvious review isn't going anywhere so let the refs say "yeah he hit him in the face but it was a basketball move or it was unintentional" and move on. I also would rather have a review judge watching and he can decide if there is a review in the 10-20 seconds of dead time before the ball is inbounded. if he cant decide in that time, no review. Some things are so tight and review in some sports are going a bit too far. Like baseball, it has always been accepted since home plate is in the ground and not a "base", that if you slid over it, you "touched" it. Review should not check for whether your foot bounced over it. That's way too picky.
Yes, teams should not be able to go to their bench during review.
