Lake Warrior Series G1: Referees play an important role in the match
The Battle of the Lakes is a high-profile matchup in the NBA playoffs. However, after watching the G1 matches, some fans may be disappointed. In this game, the referee's decision became a key factor in the game, and the effort and skill level of the players seemed to be less important.
In this game, there is a clear gap between the free throw numbers of the Lakers and the Warriors. This question is not uncommon in sports, but the 29-6 free-throw margin gap is still shocking. In this case, the Lakers scored 23 more free throws than the Warriors. The referee's decision in the game obviously has a huge impact on the outcome of the match.
For example, regarding Green's two fouls with Bushy Eyebrows, most people believe that Bushybrows should be awarded a foul. But in reality, the referee awarded Green a foul. Meanwhile, when Curry and Pu'er's breakthrough were fouled, the referee did not award a penalty. This unfair penalty not only frustrated the players, but also made fans question the result.
Although the referees' performance in this game was not satisfactory, we cannot ignore the effort and skill level of the Lakers players. James and Bushy Brother in the Lakers performed well and helped the team to victory. At the same time, the Warriors have also shown great strength and competitiveness.
While there are problems with the referee's decision, we cannot attribute the result entirely to this. On the contrary, the performance and skill level of the players on both sides in the game is the most important factor in determining the outcome of the match. I hope that in the next matches, the referee can award penalties more fairly, so that the players can really show their strength and technical level.
