They have affected the outcome of games with these stupid technicals, how about working on things like making the correct call on plays. I can't even watch games anymore because the officials have become too prominent throughout games. Stern is turning the NBA into a puccy *** league with all this bull****, the ball, no tolerance and the great referees. I tell you this pisses me off, after they called that tech on Nate I couldn't even watch the ****ing game anymore to my son to Hollywood video and rented games. This is just ****ing awful.

Don't blame the refs, blame David Stern. He was the one who instituted this policy.

i agree. I didn't even care that we lost. I couldn't even watch the whole game, it was so boring. All these foul shots are ridiculous.

Stern is trying to force 50s basketball (when no one bothered to play defense) onto a culture that grew up "putting a body" on the player to defend.

I totally agree. This "no tolerance" crap is ridiculous.

Can't wait til a playoff game is decided because someone made an official feel bad.

Agreed. Every year the NBA gets a bit more boring. Even if we had our teams from the 90's back the games would not be as much fun to watch today.

Maybe next year shorts will be replaced with skirts.

Agreed about the new officiating system.

On the other hand, Nate complains about every single call that is called against him, I've noticed that since last year. I wouldn't be surprised if officials were quicker with him because of his constant complaining. He HAS to cut that out.

OK
So now we have no LB so we will use the officials as an exuse
I am not pleased with this new rules but this is not what decided this game output.
Come on!!!

Dude please read my post, I never stated anything about the result of tonight's game. It was a general remark of what is going on in a few games which I have seen over past couple of days. I watch other games too you know, so please stop looking for crap which is not there. Frickin unbelievable.

There was a part wher speedy got pissed directly at an official and nothing happened. Even Clyde, Kenny and Gus talked about that. Nate was just excited about the play he wasn't showing up the official.

Same with carmelo the other night getting tossed cuzz he throws his head band. He wasn't even mad at the official. He just kinda fling it with no malice intended.

The nba is gay. How can you actually play defense anymore? They will call a foul even if you are not even playing defense.

Another thing. Teams got their players flopping right away on every post play. Not just on our knicks but throughout the league. It ****ing sucks. David stern is a idiot and totally killing the nba. Euro league is gonna be a better league soon.

FUCKIN A DUDE! They didn't have any consistency in how they called those technicals. Speedy didn't get called for it but anyone on the Knicks would have because of the whole respect factor. No one takes us seriously! We'll be dealing with it all year round I bet.

I agree man! The players flop but once again, you flop in Duncan or Elton Brand, you get only 5% of those called your way. You flop on Frye or Eddie, you get 50% of those called your way. The refs are retards too. They aren't consistent.
