I cannot agree more, and I like Snyder a lot. But sheesh, someone other than Rudy on occasion has to stand up for the Jazz on occasion.
Been saying it for a year... pop lights up the refs on occasion... Kerr does too. I always thought if the refs don't hear it they must assume they are doing a good job.
I think Hayward may be the guy who is officiated the least fair possibly in the league. He plays the way basketball should be played... fights through contact... doesn't complain or flop and guys like parsons get calls where they do a high rip through and get contact then shoot... what the hell is that. Meanwhile guys just bear hug Hayward off ball.
The one I truly hated was Hayward catches the ball drives and parson runs into his space. Hayward goes towards the basket with two hands on the ball but because parsons is late getting there and comes in face first he hits Gordon's elbow... fouls on Gordon... he had two hand on the ball and is going up for a shot.
Officiating is so reactionary... they need to play off contact they can see and flippers never get the benefit of the doubt. Annoying as hell.
