Whether there were two questionable calls down the stretch or not, Coach Tubbs needs to get off of his constant criticizing of the refs. How about worrying about coaching moves or the absence of some of his key players instead of blaming the loss on two calls?
By repeatedly calling out the refs after losses, he is not holding himself or his players responsible for the loss, and once the players catch on to that and realize they can just blame the refs too, then that generally leads to trouble. Reminds me of the Mavericks back when Cuban and Nellie devoted all their time to yelling at the refs and it clearly funneled down to the players on the court and the fans.
Worry about the things you can control instead of looking elsewhere to lay the blame and that will only help make this team a little better.
The game came down to what I thought it would, calls and noncalls.
