Mavericks vs Pistons: An OT Thriller || Refs were TERRIBLE 🤦🏾‍♂️



Mavericks vs Pistons: An OT Thriller || Refs were TERRIBLE 🤦🏾‍♂️

The Detroit Pistons suffered a heartbreaking two-point loss to the Dallas Mavericks in overtime, but this game will be remembered just as much for the officiating as the final score.

The Pistons were put at a major disadvantage due to a series of questionable calls, including an ejection of Ausar Thompson, a technical foul on Cade Cunningham, and a technical on head coach J.B. Bickerstaff—which originally stemmed from Cade’s situation. Momentum completely shifted as whistles piled up at crucial moments.

Referee John Goble was at the center of the controversy, handing out multiple technicals and controlling the tone of the game in a way that heavily impacted Detroit down the stretch. In a tight, physical matchup that went to overtime, the Pistons never got a fair chance to decide the game on basketball alone.

Despite the adversity, Detroit continued to fight, but the combination of inconsistent officiating and lost rhythm proved too much to overcome in a game that easily could have gone the other way.

  1. Gotta meet these officials out in the parking lot at this point bruh. They getting ridiculous.

  2. NBA definitely need to investigate the referees! This game easily the worst officiated of the year💥 man they really screwed the Pistons idc what nobody say.. the Pistons played they asses off tonight

  3. i personally wanna see these little bitc h ass refs outside. be 1 blow god bless u J.B, detroit has your back for real.!

  4. The league is trying to force the pistons to take AD, so they can make other moves to get Yanis to NYC or GS.

  5. We got robbed this game and it was retardedly still entertaining, we battled off Mavs & the refs and barely lost LOL

  6. Make shots and you dont have to worry about refs plain and simple yall had numerous opportunities and didnt excute 🤦🏻‍♂️

  7. WOOOW! Great point on that tech against Bickerstaff! Incredible!!! Didn't notice that on the live feed. INSANE! They were definitely trying to toss Cade!

  8. We cant cry. We were fouling Dallas like crazy down the stretch. Dallas just out played us. On to the next 1 fellas 👌🏿

  9. Looks like it's still Detroit VS Everybody. Always will be. We even have a superstar and still can't get the calls. It makes me think that Cade is better than his stats. He always has to play against the refs.

  10. Hold officials accountable in professional sports, college sports and even high school. Refs cannot miss the call that would cost the team a game.

  11. The G word is a huge issue. Not just in basketball but everywhere. Its really hurting a lot of people having it so accessible on our phones and the ads that play non stop. I will never use those apps. Its destroying people's lives and pro sports.

  12. I saw LeBron grab a Ref 3 times last week against Dillion Brooks physical play and he didn't get ejected? I believe it is racism against Detroit teams.
