stop crying bitch. Miami got 29 free throw attempts in game 1. That's essentially 10 more than the Knicks had so what is your excuse? The FT differential was less than that in game 2. That is just a fact so your ref argument holds no weight. Heat got out rebounded 26 to 39 in game 2, but that was the refs fault too right ? 😅 Play harder and smarter if you want a W. It is actually funny; a fan of a franchise who's guy is known as "D-Whistle" crying about refs when refs been supporting Miami since the early 00s. The hypocrisy from you is comedy.

its funny because the knicks had 5 points added to their lead by terrible calls on the refs 1. Brunson's "and 1" 3 was after the off ball foul occurred but they reviewed it and STILL gave him the and 1 2. Martin's shot clock beating chuck hit the rim and Vincent collected and put in a layup but the refs called it a shot clock violation. Moral of the story Knicks won by 5

[@MrShyMusic]

Both those "terrible calls" were with several minutes to play and not in the final minutes, and #1 was NOT a terrible call. Unless I'm mistaken, it's when the whistle is blown - and it was blown a split second after the ball left Brunson's hands. Not to mention, it was another football-style foul by the Miami Thugs in the hopes they'd whistle it in time.

[@swayyjt2832]
