I'm just glad it wasn't me, as thought there several BS calls and the 'ole DVR confirms it. Love's phantom illegal screen and CJ's push call on rebound late in the game was absolutely a textbook boxout and great hustle play to come away w/ the ball. It was a no call all the way. Both guys battling cleanly and CJ gets called for it. Horrible call, just horrible.

Does anyone think Sean gets a free pass for a Techincal if he slammed the ball down like Ford did? I think not.

as i posted on the a10 board, the issue of ford did not deserve a technical. all he was doing was slamming the ball to the ground in disgust of his teams play, not the officiating. he meant to catch the ball and give it back to the refs, as evidenced by his immediate apologetic nature. the ball just happened to hit his foot and go into the stands. he didnt deserve a foul, and the refs made the right decision.

Any time X gets 34 free throw attempts on the road I'll never complain about the officiating, despite some of the legit points made about their gafs...

I'd have to agree that if you have that many free throws on the road then the refs didn't do that bad. I think that the officiating wasn't great but it wasn't terrible. I also think the graves and Jackson didn't get enough time to make their mark in the game.
