Tuesday night’s game between the Golden State Warriors and Memphis Grizzlies was a high-stakes battle with a playoff spot on the line. In the end, it was the Warriors who came out on top, clinching a 121-116 victory at Chase Center.

Despite the win, the game saw a series of questionable officiating decisions that impacted both teams, not just the Grizzlies. From start to finish, the officials found themselves in the spotlight for all the wrong reasons.

One of the most baffling moments came when Grizzlies Zach Edey picked up his fifth foul on a routine bump on Moses Moody. Memphis challenged the call, hoping for a reversal, but the ruling stood.

Then Scotty Pippen Jr. was called for a shooting foul on Jimmy Butler despite minimal or no contact.

 

On the other end, Warriors’ Brandin Podziemski was whistled for a foul while attempting to block Pippen’s fast-break layup. The young guard’s stunned expression told the story as he was completely shocked by the decision.


The game also saw Draymond Green hit with a foul during a rebound battle with Edey. The Warriors attempted to challenge the call, but the referees allegedly did not acknowledge their request.

Additionally, Kevon Looney was also called for a foul in the middle of a rebound scrum. It sent Edey to the line, where he calmly sank both free throws.

The reaction from fans was swift and furious. Across social media, NBA fans let loose on the officials. Some fans called for accountability and systemic change.

One frustrated fan tweeted, “The refs just have to have their fingerprints in at the end of this Warriors vs Grizzlies game. Shit’s crazy, like someone needs to open an investigation crazy.”


Another chimed in with stronger criticism, writing, “Watching Grizzlies vs Warriors play-in game and it’s hard to be as bad as these refs have been. You almost have to be intentionally this bad, to be this bad. Figure. It. Out. @NBA seriously.”

Warriors vs. Grizzlies is the worst officiated game ive ever watched,” one fan wrote.


One fan posted a meme with the caption, “Live look at the Refs in the Warriors vs Grizzlies games final brain cell.

With the win, the Warriors officially secure their playoff berth and are now set to face the Houston Rockets in the first round of the Western Conference Playoffs. As for the Grizzlies, their journey isn’t over yet. They will face the winner of the Sacramento Kings and Dallas Mavericks game on Friday for one final shot at the eighth seed.

VIDEO: Some Dude Just Dropped The Cold Hard Truth On Why All Of These NFL Prospects Are “Dating White Women”

Unless this is your first day in America, then you know race relations in this country dominate just everything, and that includes NBA and NFL drafts

 

During the most recent NFL Draft in Detroit, social media was buzzing as athletes showed up to the red carpet event with their girlfriends and family. Many of the incoming NFL rookies were African-American and were spotted with white women, which has become the usual theme for years.

The same thing happens with the NBA Draft.

This year, the discourse on the NFL Draft and NBA Draft has gotten even louder as African-American women openly pondered why so many of the players never have a partner that is the same race as them.

 

 

One guy on TikTok decided to answer that question by revealing that the vast majority of his division-1 friends in college or headed to the league are dating or married to white women and explained why.

He stated that some of them had told him that their white girlfriend looked up to Taylor Swift while their girlfriend looked up to Megan The Stallion. He then states the guy asks how many white women he has seen doing the Megan Thee Stallion challenge as opposed to Black women.

He then dove into another story of a friend who relayed that his Black girlfriend started to request money from him as soon as she found out about his NIL money. She wanted her hair and nails done. He then added that the Black women would be upset if they went to places like Chipotle, and she demanded steak houses.
