I eagerly await your non-moronic reply.

How about this.
I can give you an off the top of my head listing from the last 3 minutes of Game 3. Feel free to go to the tape. These may not be in chronological order, but they are all in the last 180 seconds, so they arent hard to find.
1. Push off by shaq on dampier going for offensive rebound., right in front of Jack Nies
2. Minimal contact at most in backcourt by Terry on Wade. Its possible Nies thought it was an intentional foul and blew the whistle.
3. Haslem runs through Nowitzki to get a deflection which lead to his fastbreak
4. Terry runs down haslem and cleanly strips ball. Danny Crawford did a great job of staying ahead of the play and is staring right at the play and you can see his eyes following the ball off of haslems leg and out of bounds with no whistle. The miss comes when Ken mauer makes the call from at least 30 feet behind.
5. Shot that put Heat ahead. Payton pump fakes, sees Howard flying at him, rather than jumping into Howard and probably getting a legit foul and going to the line, he switches his pivot feet , dribbles to clear howard and hits his shot.
6. The precision timing system had been malfunctioning. In fact, its been doing so for years. The officials knew to be vigilant on the clock. Onthe above mentioned Terry foul, rather than the crew watching the clock , it runs down and no one catches it.
7. the same thing happens again with the clock a 2nd time, i think when dirk was fouled. Both were admitted by the league. Saying it was purely a clock malfunction.
Now these are 7 obvious miscues in the last 3 minutes of Game 3. would you like more ?
do i think the officials were out to get the Mavs ? no chance.
Do i think we put our officials in position to succeed. No.
