Horrendous Officiating Ruining the NBA

This Lakers game is painful to watch. Despite being on LA, I find it inexcusable that the Suns have not shot a single free throw three quarters into the game. It shows that these refs just make this shit up as it goes. Even worse, the calls/no calls that are made are absolutely ridiculous. Lebron is getting hacked. Ayton is getting hacked. This jump ball??? when Devin Booker went up and Drummond went straight up? What about the feather tick-tack fouls called on one of the Suns best defenders Crowder???

How can we continue to watch and bet this garbage. It is seriously so frustrating that these guys don't call the game the same both ways. 

Just my two cents. Sorry for venting but frustrated as a fan. 

If it makes you feel better...

During the regular season, Suns ranked very bottom (ranked 29th) in getting to the free throw line. 

@artuk99

 I believe it but with how much Devin Booker attacks the rim and his mid range game I just find it hard that they get no calls. Refs are super inconsistent. 

What is that collision between Payne and Carruso. Like Gundy said it should either be a charge or a blocking foul. Fucking blow the whistle and make a call. 

Officiating in games with Lebron has been horrible for two decades now

@Mathematician

 Totally. Ruins the competition of it unfortunately. Takes away the appeal of the sport. 

While we are on BS calls? How does Payne get two techs there? 

And this foul on Kuzma where he literally didn't leave the ground, didn't jump into the Cameron Johnson? Just complete BS that ruins runs and the game. 

1st was for shouldering Caruso and 2nd was prob for throwing the basketball at his feet/legs after Caruso confronted him for it.

1 on Caruso for slapping at the ball.  1 on Harrell for running over.

Gundy is wrong.  He knows what he did and lowered his shoulder and checked Caruso.  It was definitely intentional based on the clip.  It's not like he was going full speed and Caruso beat him to it.  He knew he was beat to it and shoulder checked.
