The refs took him totally out of the game tonight!
What i dont get is he plays straight up and yet there gaurds were allowed to bump and hack at him without any call made.
It rubish what they did to his game tonight, they made him a non factor in a game he could have shined
U stupid small minded fool, Ref's at that level do not take players out of the game. If the ref's are calling it soft then the good players will adjust. If the ref's are letting somethings go and not others then the good players and coaches will notice that and adjust.
Im not saying Dusty is a bad player, He's a gun, but come on cosmo to really say it was the ref's that took him out of the game.
lol not only original but pathetic give dusty a break you vermon
refs at all levels take players out of a game....cause they can

This is not a very good way to attract better officiating to the game.
You may be right, may be wrong, and we all know ref's decisions can impact games. But to say they target one particular player, Was it one ref making each and every call against Dusty or a combination of the 3?
I will admit that sometimes it appears that the refs let a bit more go when it happens to Dusty or even Farley, and then call it against them at the other end, but not one particular ref though.
The problem is the disadvantage rule. It is impossible for all referee's to call it consistant since it is a concept and not a black and white rule like out of bounds. Therefore one week Dusty is able to push and shove under the basket. The next he is not. The sooner they take decision making away from the ref's the better.
