Two no calls

I saw the Wiz vs. Cavs games where Lebron scored 41 points to lead the Cavs for the win and 2-1 lead in the series. But at the end where Lebron scored on the drive, I can't believe that the refs didn't called the obvious walk/traveling violation on Lebron. He drove in and then stopped, swinged the ball from left under to the right and up, and then took two more extra steps to shoot the 3 foot bank shot. An obvious traveling violation but there were no calls. Cavs won the game.

In the Kings vs Spurs game, at the end where Kevin Martin drove in against Duncan for the layup, before the ball went through the cylinders, you can see Mike Bibby clearly pulled on the net underneath the basket. That should've been a violation. Kings won the game. Now I think the ball would've went through the basket regardless, but I'm just saying by rule that is interference isn't it?

Anyway, I just noticed two no calls that decided two playoff games.

I thought I was the only one who thought Lebron traveled!!!!!!!!!! I know he's a great player and I love him, but I hate when they cheat/miss obvious calls and it changes the outcome of the games!!!

I felt sooo bad that Gilbert had to go out like that on a bad no call, where they play great defense to stop a guy, then the guy picks up his dribble, slides his piviot in front of threes reff and get an easy basket... Just plain pitiful

No way they call a net vioaltion on the last play. But the walk on Lebron should of definitley been called considering how blatanly obvious it was. Plus he walked on the posession before as well.

It's a new rule the NBA is trying to implement. They call it the Lebron Scutterbug Walk.

No way they call that walk on LeBron. After all the whole day was nothing but hype about him breaking some made up record (most points scored in a road playoff game :roll: ) and needed those two points so they could have their headlines.

We are all witness...to the biggest bullsh!t call to decide a game that I can remember. I know that the game moves very fast, and it's tough for ref's to make calls in such crucial, late-game situations, but I could tell that he traveled at first glance, before they slowed it down and everything. Did the announcers even comment on this, or does ESPN have too much invested in LeBron to point out something that obvious?

Really though, the Wizards blew that game. They led throughout, and Arenas was WIDE open.

The NBA wants LBJ to win.
