The refs wouldn't let him get away with it. He's not special. There isn't some grand conspiracy.

A lot of people who are anti Warriors faggots cannot stand one of the Warriors best players. Color me surprised.

I don't think you or others are stupid for thinking he's obnoxious. I think you're stupid for thinking that he/the team get away with shit to conspiracy tier levels.

Why in the world would you think refs let him get away with things nobody else can? He's not the face of the Warriors, he's not the face of the NBA, he doesn't have advertisements out the ass like some of the other players either. So can you please explain this theory where Dreymond gets belittle refs when no one else can?

Just posting to say that the game was really good.

No comment on the officiating outside of my general comment that NBA officiating has gonna back to the 90s b.s. mode where some refs have clearly sold out. Some of the old core got exposed but so far the "new" guys ahven't been outed. It's weird, because there is SO much emphasis on checking calls now. You can actually intern at a few locations to review calls!

I love it when they go to review calls to make it seem like they are doing a great job, and when they reviewed a phantom call against the Raps, they refused to show the video, saying that in one angle, it looked like wade's cheek was touched. Fuck right off, NBA refs.

I don't think it's a conspiracy. The best teams have always got preferential treatment. That's always how it's been. And right now you're the best by far.

So why doesn't the same preferential treatment apply to Curry or Klay? They're arguably the face of the team over Dreymond.

/e

If you tell me Curry gets special treatment you are off your rockers, little guy gets his ass kicked up and down the court. He's so good that he makes the shots, but a lot of times fouls aren't called when they should be. Give him the same calls and Jamal Crawford and he'd avg 40 pts.

He apparently gets away with it to such a degree that any other player would be tossed before halftime. But there isn't a conspiracy to help the Warriors. You can't have both.

So either you can't read lips and he's not actually swearing every single time OR the NBA is doing everything in its power to help the Warriors (by keeping their refs from giving him Ts). And I know one of you cunts will say false dichotomy to appear intelligent but the extent to which you believe he is "getting away with it" leaves no middle ground.

What's crazy about Curry is that he goes on like 15-2 personal runs against teams like this, and we aren't even surrpised by it.

We have become so desensitized by his greatness.

And I get shit for saying he's been the best player in the NBA over the past 2 years.

Lebron is arguably the second best player of all-time in my opinion, but it's pretty obvious who has been the best player in the NBA over the past two seasons. It's Curry.

You are 100% right. It's the same jsp circle jerk that denies this, despite what the numbers say.

Make of it what you want. Kevin Durant got a t tonight. Which he deserved. Before that draymond had been much more demonstrative towards the ref twice right before that. And yes he kept saying that's fucking bullshit. Same thing kd said. So give me shit all.you want.

You are allowed to show frustration as long as you don't direct it at the refs. From what I remember, Dreymond sat on the floor and kept saying bullshit. He did not however look, or make any gestures at the refs.

For the past 2 regular seasons, yes that's true. But that's mainly because Lebron coasts through the regular season whereas the Warriors have been pushing to be as great as possible.
