Insulting? Don;t believe my reply was anymore insulting than mcrowder's post. I'm sure he's a big boy and doesn't need you to up for him. But don't sit there and tell us that you didn't mean for your post to be insulting. I have a right to my opinion just as you have a right to yours. "Fanboy" is a term that we use for posters who come here and accuse officials of cheating. If that offends you or you consider it name calling, oh well.

Apology accepted, and my apologies to you, my post was insulting.
I don't think anyone was accusing the officials of cheating. We were simply pointing out some questionable calls. Believe it or not, all of us officials miss calls and sometimes it happens at the worst possible time. And I'll repeat what I said originally, and that is that I'm not blaming the officials for the Mavs loss.
And I am still "frustrated"...We were two minutes away from sweeping the series (I believe a game 3 win would have equated to a game 4 win).
Losing 4 in a row had little to do with the officiating. The officials were consistently not calling the off-ball contact against Nowitzki and were consistently calling the on-ball contact against Wade. My point is they were consistent. We just didn't like what they chose to call and what they didn't. Yet that is no excuse. You learn to play with-in the confines of how the game is called and play on. The Heat did, the Mavs didn't...now we wait till next year.
