Refs did screw us. But we should also learn lessons from this game. The ability to win this game was entirely in our hands, and we gave it away with two bone-headed mistakes: Brooks taunting Lebron and getting T'd up, and Booker tapping Lebron stupidly on the last shot. It would have been easy to just not do those two stupid things. I agree that the refs deserve a bunch of criticism and can generally eat shit, but we should also own our own role in the loss and learn from it and get better.

Booker has already owned up to it.
