Compared to the NBA, refereeing in the NFL should be a great deal easier. There's not a game harder to call than the lightening quick pro game of basketball. Generally, however, the NBA refs get it right. That is unless the Toronto Raptors don't defeat the Cavs in the Eastern Conference playoffs. The final chapter in the plot between the Cavs and Dubs will be read come NBA Finals. End of story, but not the end of the book. They blew a lead they should have been able to maintain. The Warriors didn't lose the game because of the two non-calls. Jefferson would have been remiss had he not played as tough as he did against Durant, but tough is a risk you take as a defender. Nature of the game, nature of competitive behavior. Tyron Lue has a point games should not be decided on the free throw line. If KD had been able to get a shot off, the result of the game could have been different since he's been know to make long last second game-winning-shots before. Jefferson's foot struck KD's ankle, which caused him to fall. As for the last non-call, that was crucial.

I was happy to read that the NBA stated that LeBron should have been assessed a T for hanging on the rim far longer than was needed to escape injury.
