Croatia vs Spain Basketball Match

[sbk]

I think Croatia vs Spain match is a totally scandal! I'm chatting to my basketball friends from all over the world and all of them think in same way.

Referees were terrible, most dumb man in the world can see that they supported Spain and gave many fauls to Croatia without any reason.

This match made us feel sick and angry!

I decided not to watch any Fiba organised basketball match again! Because it's not basketball and sport sprit anymore! It's just politics! Nothing more!

SBK, your comment above is probably not the best way to introduce yourself to a discussion forum made up almost entirely of basketball referees. Just a thought. Sorry your team got crushed. Well, not that sorry, I guess.

Interesting choice of websites to vent on. I doubt if you'll get much sympathy here. Did the officials commit any turnovers? Did they fail to box out? Did they miss any free throws? Officials call the game, the players decide who wins and loses.

Those refs clearly wanted Spain to win it all, the fix is in.

Oh wait! Spain lost today to Germany. It was all a plot to get Germany the crown! Yeah that's the ticket!

I think you have that part right.

if refrees would be justiceful, I would support Spain (because of Navarro).

If you'd watched the match, you would see what I mean.

Can you really be dense enough to come back here and again accuse the referees of cheating?!?! Dude, this forum is made up almost entirely of referees!! If you want to complain about the refs, go somewhere else!!! We're not interested in your crying.

C'mon, Chuck. At least try to be justiceful.

Germany was supposed to play France today for the championship. The game was called off, however, when France surrendered.

It's true, it's true.....

No, wait! Greece beats Germany for the title. It was all a plot to get the only team Greece could beat into the finals! Now the truth comes out.

Back in the days when players were required to raise their hand when a foul was called on them became very confusing because the French players would raise both hands.

It's true. It's true.
