I went to the game last night and joined in to the "Refs you suck!" chant. Unfortunately, bad reffing isn't new.
There were a couple calls late in the game that I was amazed they called. One was the drive by Mitchell with 55 seconds left and they called the foul on Advija. Looking at the NBA 2 minute report, it was determined that the contact was incidental and it was an
incorrect call.

The other one that surprised me was that last foul by Camara on Joe with 0.5 seconds left. The NBA 2 minute report calls that a
correct foul call. Hmm. Joe initiated his jump shot with his toe on the 3-point line. Camara establishes defensive position well over a foot behind the line. Here's a look at where Joe came down -

To me that looks like Joe initiated the contact.
Over the course of a game, bad calls are made on both sides. I'm proud of the Blazers fighting thru the adversity and coming out on the W side of that game.
