Jamal Murray blames Lakers for manipulating refs
LeBron James can be seen complaining after every nasty call against his team. James has concerns even about out-of-bounds calls, waving his wrist.
Every time James gets the ball slapped out of his hands, you can expect to see him demanding a foul call for being hit on the hand.
Jamal Murray states the Lakers attempt to control referees after every call. He says he expects his team to play through it and not complain about it.
After leaving to a hot start on offense in Game 1, the Nuggets were brought grinding to a halt in the 2nd quarter. Two actually minimal offending foul calls against Jokic put him into nasty difficulty with 3 fouls.
He had to be benched, in spite of being the groups highest scorer through that point. Murray himself ended up in nasty trouble quickly after.

“Just attempt to play through it, its tough. We know were the younger group” Murray said.
“The calls arent always going to go your method, and you cant complain about it, I tried to discover that as a young gamer, and you simply got to play through it. Jamal Murray added.
“Just attempt to play through it, its tough. We understand were the younger team” Murray stated.
Speaking about getting used to the whistles, Murray mentioned how the Nuggets need to take it on the chin and keep fighting out there.
“The calls arent constantly going to go your method, and you cant complain about it, I attempted to discover that as a young gamer, and you simply got to play through it. [The referees are] not trying to make the wrong call.” Jamal Murray added.
The Nuggets were docked an ungodly 25 free toss efforts throughout simply the 2nd quarter of Game 1. The two offensive nasty calls on Jokic and a number of ticky-tacky fouls early in the period meant that they were in the charge for a very long time.
The Lakers put them in the penalty in the third quarter too, although there is no concrete evidence of bad officiating versus them.
Murray particularly called out the officiating in video game and blamed the Lakers of manipulating the referees all game long. He emphasised on how the Nuggets were the younger team, and did not really have a lot of relationship with the refs, something that the experienced Lakers have at their disposal.
