How can NBA Officials be THIS bad?!
The NBA's own “2 minute report” regularly finds pivotal non-calls, major infractions and fouls that the REFs got flat out WRONG!
…Or maybe they're NOT wrong at all…Maybe the REFs are actually just doing what they’re being TOLD to do…

I now only watch my home team hoping that its in the NBA script that my team wins. I Remember when the Miami Heat with Shaq, Gary Payton, and Dwyane Wade, beat the much better Dallas Mavericks with Derk. Dwyane Wade shot more free throws than the whole Dallas team. Mark Cuban filed a law suite and then dropped it. Two years later, the much better Miami Team with Bosh, Lebran and Wade lost to an inferior Maverick team. I believe this still goes on. The NBA sucks. College Basketball, still with flaws, but much more real basketball and not sports entertainment. Congress should make them advertise as sports Entertainment. Also, Now that betting is legal, NBA basketball seems more suspect.
the gambling ad is crazy . sell out with no passion will lead you nowhere
It’s just promo, gotta make money somehow and everyone does it
You can work without salary. Salary leaves you with no passion 😢😢😢
"The NBA Has a Referee Problem.."
Before two minutes you have a betting ad. Give me a fucking break, hahahahahaha.
I notice that as well. Wtf lol
Lol solid point. Kinda easy to tell he's not leading by example but is only talking about what the views bring for him.
The refs all need to be audited by the IRS.
See how much they are all betting.
Sports betting is the problem.
It's not the physicality. There's a rule book. Follow it. Travelling, double dribble, carrying, moving screens, over the back on rebounds, charging, dislodging, offensive players swiping hands of defenders away, the right of defenders to their position, verticality, the "eurostep", "gathering the ball", the rules are written down and coaches coach to the rules, don't let the rules fly out the window, no more special treatment, no more complaining to refs, no more players speaking to refs, the players play, the coaches coach, and the refs call the game fairly. It's insane now.
The problem is the agendas of the league and refs betting.
The NBA has a commissioner problem.
It's a much deeper problem than that. The commissioner is largely just the face and does what his higher ups tell him. Changing the commissioner would solve nothing. Many more in line to do exactly what he would do.
The rigged games are so frustrating.
Everybody should know by now that the NBA is as legitimate basketball as the WWE is wrestling.
From a product standpoint, the biggest problem the NBA has is consistency. It's so hard to know what is going to be called and what not, whether from minute to minute or game to game. Yeah, they are a business and want to maximize their profits. I get that as a driving motivation. On the other hand, I've tuned out of the NBA for months at a time because I just can't stand to watch the refs swallow their whistles as one guy gets murdered, then cough them back up again for inconsequential contact.
is either scripts or gambling
The NBA is rigged sponsored by Draftkings! That shit is too funny 😂
Maybe they're Gambling!
Scoring has to do with the number of possessions a team gets... when you allow teams to play defense their opponents take longer to shoot and that runs off clock and cuts down opportunities or possessions.
I'm all for more physicality in defense than professional flops alots.
I love the recent change in allow more physicality!!
"The NBA has a referee problem. But before we discuss, let's give a shoutout to today's sponsor, an online sports betting app that we're pretty sure (🙄) isn't contributing to the NBA referee problem that this video is complaining about."
It’s called game fixing and Adam Silver thinking all we want to see is offense aka threes. It’s awful
I believe their is a device in the ball by which they can control it whether to go in or not . Okay, why do they always take back the ball? What do they need a ball for after each game to the point they make sure to retrieve the ball 100% of the time.
It's called NBA Entertainment for a reason... All major sports are considered Entertainment businesses, meaning, they are Entertainment, like wrestling, because they can influence the final result.
There's a reason after scoring went through the roof early in the season, the commissioner said he would look I to changing that scoring without mentioning any players. It's simple. The refs called less tik tak fouls and allowed defenders to actually touch players and cut down on freedom of movement....
It’s good that they allow physicality but they should be consistent
The play in tournament adds a david v goliath title chance for spots 9 and 10. It correctly punishes the weakness of the teams at spots 7 and 8 with a longer title path. It correctly awards the number 1 and 2 teams a more exhausted opponent in round 1. It gives teams a reason so play hard until the end.
Oh my, what a move by the ref!!! Ref go for the cover 1! 2! 3! And your winer is the ref!!! What a great show by the ref!!!
It's fine to allow more physicality but doing it right before the playoffs doesn't feel right. It would make more sense to do it before the season starts to fresh up players. I never knew the Wolves were allowed to reach and hack ever play but now I know why.
Playoffs have always been reffed more physical than regular season.
I mean, it always has been up until the defending champs were down 0-2 against an all-time defense. Then the league had to step in and strip MN of their ability to play playoff defense.
@@lightbeforethetunnel If your defense relies on breaking the rules, fouling, and reaching, then it's not good defense.
@@GiornoJJBA MN's defense doesn't rely on breaking the rules, fouling, reaching, etc. That's a false narrative that lots of new bandwagon fans in Denver started because bandwagoners just can't handle losing.
MN has 5 players in the top 20 for defensive win shares. 8 in the top 40.
That's an all-time team, defensively.
Do you think they broke the rules all regular season to get results like that? Or maybe they're just an actually good team on defense (which isn't actually illegal, believe it or not... even in today's NBA).
I get that good D is frustrating, but it's not against any rules.
@@GiornoJJBA One thing worth pointing out is that no Denver fan can actually back up these accusations about Games 1 and 2. No videos have been made to show all this supposed fouling MN did on defense.
Just accusations with nothing behind them, that's all it is.
I don't believe anything said by Isaiah Thomas.
i been saying this shi since game one of wolves and nuggets and the home court gets advantage when it comes to refs
9:11 - Adam Silver: "'with technology these days, you should be able to get every call right.' And I say we could, but the game would be 5 hours long"
1) No it wouldn't.
2) Even if it would, I am honestly fine with that 😂. If the coaches had more challenges and got to keep them if their challenge worked, the NBA wouldn't be able to rig as many games.
The league ought to love longer games. It gives them more commercial breaks. So it's obvious Silver is full of it... and is just making up excuses to rig outcomes.
This is the nature of team sports. They are overly dependent on referee decisions. Either learn to live with it or move on to sports that don’t rely on referees for every play, such as golf, tennis and track and field.
You can tell in the first five minutes of the game who the league wants to win by who the refs are helping...it goes like this...touch on one end of the floor is a foul and a hack on the other end is not...and the players pick up right away! We all knew the league wasn't going to let Jokic and Denver get swept or beaten at all for that matter...Murray should have been suspended...that's all you need to know!
Yep exactly. Anyone following the MN VS Denver series knows there is a severe problem. Most inconsistently reffed series I've seen in my life.
The league and refs parachuted in to save Denver after being down 0-2
Yeah last I was told if you throw something on court during a game as a pedestrian that's black balled for life from ever going there again. Meanwhile nothing was done to Murray except some pocket change fine. That should of suspended him for at least a game. Go watch game 4 of the Cavs v Boston series. Tell me how 24 Boston free throws to Cavs 7 makes sense. Cavs ran into the paint 18 more times! Whole league is rigged and the fact the playoffs of all things are is just pathetic.
@Negotiability Murray not being suspended is an issue but the way bigger issue is the way the league decided to call super soft style reffing after Denver went down 0-2.
Given the matchup, with MN being an all-time defensive team and Denver being good when given open looks .. that decision HEAVILY favors Denver to the point that it's unfair.
Playoffs have always been reffed more physical. Always. Why would they suddenly change that mid-series when the defending champs are down 0-2 to such a defensive team. It's obvious
@Negotiability The thing is, Denver has way more fans than MN. So the league knows they can rig the game for Denver right now and most fans will turn a blind eye to it and even defend what the league is doing.
That's how the rigging works, they know how human beings are. They know we're biased and defend our fav team no matter what. So they can rig for the most popular teams (resulting in more $) and at the same time there will be more people defending the rigging too.
@Negotiability Just look at how any post in this comment section that points out the rigging for Denver gets no upvotes. They have so many fans right now that they're just blatantly biased. They only see what they want to see and they end up supporting the rigging (either directly or indirectly by never upvoting posts that explain how the NBA is rigging for Denver)
Mavs played like garbage (missed so many open shots) but even then they got the lead down to 8 then after that time out refs made like 4 5 straight calls against them youll never see them make against boston so that felt rigged af
They should have 4 refs on the court and more coaches challenges.
How did you go from amount of fouls have been reduced to the NBA is rigged 😂😂
Cuz he don't know what he's talking about cuz he don't know what he talking bout.
Adam Silver is what death looks like without the cloak.
I stopped watching when you used Isiah Thomas to try to prove your point about rule changes just to help Jordan. Everyone knows Thomas can't be objective when saying anything about MJ, and the rules changes helped save the league, which wasn't being watched, because too many viewers thought it was played by a bunch of thugs and drug users. So the commisioner cleaned up the game and drug testing was advertised to fool viewers into thinking that drug use had been reduced or eliminated.
Good riddance
Womp womp cry about it. Jordan went crying to David stern snowflake
Mj is overrated and has 5 fake championships.
Jordan was an extremely talented basketball player but would not stand up for any injustice to keep his favor with the NBA. Thats why they made him better than he was. He is no where near the greatest player of all time, he is just the most marketable player and possibly popular.
@@charleslangster2541 Jordan is severely overrated
The NBA put refs in a difficult position by allowing more and more to increase scoring and flashy highlights. NBA today, especially guards, is more like Globetrotters basketball with all the travel and carry, then like technical FIBA basketball. So there’s no longer a bright line between what is within or outside the rules, and calls have become more and more inconsistent.
What convinced me the NBA is rigged is Denver VS MN, when Denver went down 0-2, the sudden unprecedented change in ref style on D (combined with no suspension for Murray) handed Denver Game 3 and probably 4, too.
The league made the mistake of listening to all the new bandwagon fans for Denver who don't understand the playoffs have always been reffed more physical. Always.
But since bandwagon fans don't want to lose (hence, why they go to the defending champs), they declare it must be because MN is getting away with illegal defense. The refs listen and give them what they want by switching to super soft reffing on D to nullify MN's all-time D.
And the inconsistency caused MN to come out playing physical D - as expected for playoffs - only to get their entire starting 5 in foul trouble by halftime. This meant MN can't play D and Denver gets open looks all night.
The league effectively stripped MN of their all-time D and gave Denver, a team that excels on open looks, open looks all night.
The outcome wasn't even hard to predict. Only 5 mins in, i predicted a blowout win for Denver. For Denver fans, how did I know? It was still close at that time.
MAGNETS IN THE RIM ITS FIXED
Am I the only one that thinks Anthony Edwards plugs Kat?
AND THEN PROMOTED BETTING. HAHAH SMFH
for real, i have never seen so many players complaining about being fouled and it not being called than in these playoffs... i know the intensity ramps up but this is beyond that, the referees seem to be stuck between superstar calls and allowing more physicality... cant have it both ways
The reason you're seeing some complain is because the call down on the other end is usually favoring the other team and bailing them out. They go up half assed and sometimes don't even get touched and STILL sell the call for the refs. Jumbotron shows the play and yet STILL the player receives his free throws. Those replays should ALWAYS come into factor on the refs call at this point. Point blank. And there should be a checks and balance system where a group or handful of people audit the refs each game. In turn if they decide to miss their auditing the players then get to audit said secondary officials and their jobs can be put in question. Checks and balances. Makes it so no one has the advantage... But of course the league will never do this because scripting is how they make money. If you don't think a bunch of rich people got rat holes to make their bets for them... idk what to tell you. Refs, Silva, players, coaches and even GMs all probably have their guys they go to for betting when they know.
If the NBA was fixed, both the Nuggets nor Knicks wouldn't out already. Just saying
I LOVE IT! LET THEM BE PHYSICAL! DOWN WITH FOUL BAITERS. They did it mid-season, but better late than never.
Adam Silver.
The Main issue is Adam Silver and his stupid ass letting all this shit happen. David Stern obviously has done some stupid shit but he would’ve never of let everything go this far like how Silver did it’s insane
This was a draft kings commercial with some talk about basketball. I think Adam Silver should go away and somebody new comes in and brings the sport back to value and fairness. You said it. The refs are calling games to make it fair between the teams. THAT, Henry, is taking away the competitiveness if they (NBA comish and referees) continue to manipulate the outcome.
Referees started allowing much more physical play.. they swallowed their whistles. This is a big reason why the Denver Nuggets are getting their butt's kicked by the T-Wolves. What worked for Denver last year works against them this year. Their style of play no longer works. Adam Silver has turned the clock back to the 1990s
No worries, the league parachuted in to save Denver ever since being down 0-2.
Saw it coming a mile away. They're not gonna let a small market team with such a tiny fanbase get past the 2nd round. Especially with how many new Denver fans there are this year as the defending champs. Too much money would be lost if MN wins.
maybe they are avid draftkings users
F*** Draft Kings
NBA needs a league face,the flavor of the week is now ANT MAN because nickname. ESPN TV deal with nba may have the effect of actually deleting ESPN.
The Mavs win it all for Irving and Cuban. Get it?
Complains about the refs while promoting “draft kings”. Do you have any awareness? At all?
This is why the wolves are top tier defense all of the sudden. Because they are big long and athletic and are alowed to play high contact defense and no fouls are called. What used to be faul it is no longer faul. If this doesn't get fixed or balanced and phisicality comes to the front of being the most important thing, the teams will opt for big men more than anything and will follow the t wolves roster example. The league will reduce in smaller player and overall skill level will drop. This to me is way more detrimental to basketball. I think basketball should be a game of skill and not who is bigger and stronger.
Need to find a good balance I am liking the physicality. There for awhile basket ball became like just straight offense so much so there are alot players that can drop 50 but couldnt gaurd a statue. I definitely want good balance between defense and offense tho. First year in a long time since I watched all the highlights of the playoffs.
Playoff basketball has always been reffed more physical. Always.
MN was not doing anything inconsistent with how playoffs have always been reffed.
The inconsistency is the fact the league parachuted in to save Denver after they went down 0-2 by switching to super soft ref style mid-series, which set up Wolves... because they came out expecting normal physical playoff reffing and their starting 5 was all in foul trouble by halftime cuz of it.
This is a very basic way the league extends series. Very easy to predict. They set up one team for early foul trouble with inconsistent reffing, to set them up.
They're losing right now tho......
It’s not that I don’t think the NBA has a referee problem, it does… but I don’t think your video had very good points and could’ve been better.
1. You were using quotes that aren’t even incriminating really. Like the “instructing refs” criticism and the former ref saying he was told not to miss a call. How are refs supposed to learn their job with no instruction or coaching? If others missed a call, if I ran the NBA, I would emphasize to my best refs especially for the call not to be missed next time too. A better clip to prove your point would be an inside source or a ref saying that he’s told to make a call that’s not in the rule books or lie about calls or a ref saying he was encouraged or kinda pushed or persuaded in a sneaky way to be unfair to particular players or teams.
2. The blasphemy about Jordan while kinda insulting him in the process. I didn’t expect Jordan to catch strays in this video and I’m not gonna lie, I hated every moment of it. And then you used Isaiah’s lying, Jordan-hatin’ a** to make your point. The rules were changed mostly to improve the game (and it did!), and to entertain fans, not to help Jordan score specifically. The man didn’t need help from the damn refs and would’ve dominated either way. It’s also silly to imply Jordan wasn’t as great as we think he was when 99% of your audience likely admires the guy for his godly talent and credits him for the best years of the NBA. Even if it was true that the NBA rigged the entire NBA for Jordan (it’s not), business-wise and subscriber-wise, it’s just not smart to tell your audience who are mostly Jordan fans and have high respect for the man, that the NBA had refs rig games all for Jordan.
3. You talk about rule changes like lowering the score (which was greatly needed BTW) but fail to see that it has impacted all team averages and it was league-wide… which makes it fair. Although refs make horrible calls that are sus AF sometimes, overall, team averages went down and it improved the game. And that’s not unfair in my eyes. What was sneaky behavior however is Adam Silver saying they made NO changes to the rule books or how the NBA refs make calls and that they aren’t attempting to lower the score. THAT part was valid criticism of the NBA ref calls because he’s lying to the teams and the fans. That deserves criticism because he’s being sneaky about rule changes and flat out lying. The rest of this video was kinda weak argument-wise. Hopefully, you see this as constructive criticism for future videos and don’t see it as hate cuz it’s not. I wanted to like this video. I really liked the thumbnail though and I will still watch the next video from you because it’s clear you have a talent for creating.
So you make a video about how the NBA is rigged and the reps do what they're told but yet you promote an app for betting on the sport that is rigged How is how is that any Good If we know the game is rigged we can't win It's just Taking our money Does that make sense?
337k subscribers yet 16 hundred views in 5+ hours talk about a Fall off 😭
Go watch Cleveland vs Boston this playoffs game 3 and 4. That upset game 2 made the league pay the refs to force the series one way. Bostons overhyped ass was dropping in stock the second that game 2 happened. Game 4 - 24 free throws to Boston.. 7 (2 of which were techs) free throws giving to Cleveland... Make it make sense. They made more than 60 drives to the basket... 7 free throws??????? Game 3 I already forgot the free throw disparage but it was the same story and frankly I'm over the NBA. Once this Cleveland series is up I'm done watching the rest of the playoffs. Fuck the finals. Fuck the league.
I don't believe you. I can agree with your argument but because of that exactly is why I don't think you can just not watch more b-ball. You're too deep into it, too mentally subscribed to it.
I stopped watching over 10 years ago and never went back.
And at Denver, just like that, they help the Timberwolves win, the refs control everything, the whole NBA, they tell who should win with their whistles, the whole NBA is manipulated by the referees, at the Lakers they whistled everything for the Lakers, now all of a sudden they let the Timberwolves get away with everything with their fouls strange or

You showed charles Barkley the 1# hater and then draymid Green bro like no one likes him his opinion is irrelevant no one ine takes him seriously
The league is still scripted, you can’t convince be other wise.
Yeah, gambling took it over.
They got their games controlled by gambling.
@@Vadimony players, refs, & everyone associated with the NBA. You right. 💯

Bring back defense
