No complaints.... Knicks played hard. Unfortunately, NYK play 82 road games. Rose was fouled twice on game-winning drive attempt.... sefolosha hit Rose on head from behind and Milsap jumped into him. No call,
of course. It was like that all afternoon....
as I always say, I don't mind if they let the players play just as long as the calls are consistent. They called a ton of reach in or touch fouls on NY but allowed ATL to play physical.
refs called about 7 offensive fouls on NY and on 4 of them ATL defender was shuffling feet to the side.... simply amazing. On top of that, ATL got away with a ton of forearm push off shoves.
anyway, I'm all in for the lottery so this loss doesn't bother me. Besides, after Rose was hammered Melo got the rebound but instead of going up strong for game winning dunk.... Melo instead attempted a fade away jumper (clanked off the rim). So NY had their chance to win (and they allowed ATL to hit the go ahead 3 on previous possession). Still, if you watched the game.... NY wins by 10-15 points if not for the lopsided officiating.
