The Knicks Got Buttfucked By One Of The Worst Foul Calls In NBA History Last Night
Let me start off this blog by saying I think that #Rigged culture where everyone claims every loss is proof that there is some conspiracy at work is the modern day version of pussification and an evolved version of participation trophy culture. Yesterday my 9-year-old daughter said all the kids in her school were complaining that the Super Bowl was rigged for the Chiefs because their tight end dates the biggest superstar on the planet. That kind of claim checks out in the idiotic brains of 4th graders but anybody that actually has a fully functional brain will realize the 49ers gave that game to the Chiefs 100 different ways (Well, 99 different ways, with the Football Gods fucking them over for number 100 by taking out Dre Greenlaw as he ran back onto the field).

So to be clear, I'm not saying last night's Knicks game was rigged. But will someone please make this foul call make sense.
Here's the alternate angle for those that need it:
Calling a foul on a desperation last-second heave from 35 feet out off of a block with minimal contact is like calling pass interference on a Hail Mary where there was barely any touching. I mean what the fuck are we doing here, Timmy?
To be fair to the stooges with the whistles, the game was called like shit for both sides. But that was because the refs actually allowed a ton of contact for both sides, at least until the last second prayer was launched with barely any contact. A foul like that being called along with numbers like this are toughhhhhh to explain.

On the bright side, at least the very least the NBA isn't trying to gaslight us all into thinking that was the correct call by admitting the fuck up, which is like spraying some whipped cream on top of shit considering the Knicks don't get a chance to finish the game in overtime.
I would say that the ref (Jacyn Goble) hates Jalen Brunson considering he botched this call against the Celtics in the season opener that was also immediately declared a bad call by the officials afterwards, which was a 4 point swing in a game that was decided by 4 points.
However Goble also also made this horrid call in Golden State a couple of days ago.

As well as swallowed his whistle for this no-call against Jayson Tatum last season that almost broke LeBron.
So if we are going to say everything is above level with Jacyn Goble, maybe he just fucking sucks at his job. You know what happens in the real world if you suck at your job? You get fired. Or get fined. Or at the very least get held accountable. I'd love to see Adam Silver drop the hammer but I know all this will be met with silence until the next fanbase loses their shit in a game that could impact their playoff run. As a wise man once said, "Sweet league".
