Shane Battier Gets Away with Murder


Seriously, there were plays where he would foul, obviously, multiple times and there were no whistles. Very frustrating seeing as how any and all contact from a Celtic is practically called as a flagrant (if you count all the silly technicals in these games.)

Also, I don't understand how or when referees decide to look at players' footwork. The Heat were getting away with travels all night.

Actually, I guess I do understand it: they watch for contact from the Cs on defense, but watch the Cs footwork on offense. When you think about it, within the context of how these games have (mostly) been called, that makes sense. The refs are hyper-aware of defensive contact from Cs, not so much from the Heat.

The refs weren't the reason we lost last night, but they sure did destroy our momentum and limit our opportunities at times.
