Yes, but you're too young to see them.

Maybe, but that doesn't discount the fact that an officiating error in the first half of game can still affect the outcome of a game that ends with a 1-2 point margin. The spirit and intensity that often goes with basketball will cause people to say, "we'll overcome that," but when you look at it objectively and without passion (which isn't easy to do), the error still remains.
