The only reason for a home court advantage is because of referee bias. The referees get overwhelmed by the crowd and unintentionally make bad decisions.

So would that also be considered a fix
Also how do you unintentionally make a bad decision. If by getting overwhelmed as you say are they not intentionally making bad calls to make the home crowd happy?

Pretty much what I said! So, I agree! That block/charge call was a key in the game. The referee was too late getting in position. All ref¡¯s have been told to start calling the block when the defender is still moving. This guy(ref) must be a newby! The atmosphere was way too much for him! I guarantee he went back in the locker room and confessed to have missed that one!

Not necessarily! More not experienced enough to be officiating a game like this one. The atmosphere overwhelmed him! I guarantee this guy gets a shitty game to officiate next time.

You can see unintentional umpire bias in the MLB where the first pitch is called a strike when it is on the corners 51.2% of the time.
If the count is 3-0 a strike will be called on the corners 67.6% of the time.

These were not rookie referees and I can see your point if it was maybe the Final 4 but how experienced to you need to be just to officiate a regular season game I mean its what they get paid to do
