I would agree that the refs are getting better at not calling every flop, and that this series is being called fairly evenly in comparison to some other series, such as the Heat / OKC series for example.

but if a team flops 10 times more and they get the call 3 times more, that's still 3 extra calls, and it also influences how the players play the rest of the game.
 
Why? Maybe the Heat fouled more.

Yes, I'm just saying that looking at how many FT's were taken is a good starting off point to get an idea of how a game was reffed, and it was clearly in the Spurs' favor.

Overall, I agree with fish that the Finals have been pretty well reffed. Conspiracy theories about the NBA are very immature and misguided. I'm rooting for the Heat, but if the Spurs win, you won't see me blaming David Stern. If the Spurs win, it's because they deserve it. Same with the Heat.

Nah. the refs routinely influence the outcomes. Admitting reality is not immature. Maybe you are one who is silly , immature, and misguided.

You are retarded. Of course they influence the game, he is saying that thinking that they are intentionally influencing a game a particular direction which someone else has dictated is immature and misguided.
 
No, I am not retarded, you are. You are both wrong. The refs do influence the game , and the refs are influenced by their employers.
 
Also I did not say that the games are rigged in general. I just said that the refs seemed to give the Heat a little help early on in the last game. I think that most imbalances are due to the imperfections of the refs , the subtle cheating of the players, general biases towards stars and home court, and the perceptions of the media and the public, -- not that the league is dictating the series winner.

You really think Lebron is getting favorable calls? This has been the first time in a looooong time that refs haven't caved and given him non-stop touch fouls. Yes floppers everywhere, but there is no way in hell that the refs are rigging this series in the Heat's favor. There are a hundred more calls the Heat could have gotten if that was really the case.

You are such an idiot. You are proving my point and then some. You believe in conspiracies more then I do. So you believe that LeBron normally gets ridiculous favor from the refs , until this series for some unknown reason. and where did I talk about LeBron getting calls this series? I just said that the Heat got a little help early in the last game. You are the one who states the refs will give one team hundreds of calls if they want to. Where did I talk about rigging the series? I just said it looked the Heat got a little help in getting back in the series. I don't know whether the league told the refs to keep it competitive. Let's see you prove that they didn't.

So at what point does your stupid mind say that one team is getting an edge? 200 calls? 300 calls? 500?
