Tony Brothers needs to get his eyes checked because he officiates horribly! Today's game between Utah Jazz at Houston Rockets, he called a foul on a Rockets player late in the game. Kirelenko flops and as Tony Brothers is watching T-Mac's feet to see if it's a 3 or 2 pointer he catches the flop and assumes the foul. Another incident happened early in the game in the first quarter against the Rockets where he didn't even know who he blew the whistle at! This kind of officiating should be penalized or overruled by instant replay. It's sad how much power the referees in the NBA possess. They really do make a difference in the outcome.

Totally agree. This call was just terrible. What ever happened to letting "the players decide the game". This was a must win game for the Rockets and to have a player(AK47) be rewarded for flopping with 30 seconds left in a close playoff game is ridiculous.

I wish BAD referees in the NBA were explained in the NBA's Playoff slogan, "There Can Only Be One", unfortunately there are a couple of them. These NBA Officials must do better, I thought they fixed this problem in the offseason. It amazes me how they could be at the game, have the best view, and not see the same thing we see at home on television.

I am sincerely asking the NBA referees to let "the players decide the game", especially in the NBA post-season. If I wanted to see a referee decided game, with poor officiating, I would checkout a pick-up game at the local YMCA.

At times the NBA referees "chew" on their whistle like it is bubble gum, afraid to make a correct obvious call. Then when they do finally have the audacity to make a call, it amazes me what "foolishness" is being penalized, this is playoff basketball we are talking about here, please.
