French refs literally stole this in front of our eyes. All hail draft kings.

I mean he barely touched him, but they should have fouled before they had a chance to even shoot

The Rui ejection and this is wildly suspect

refs got paid

This much help to beat Japan is wild.

It’s a weak foul but Kawamura was dumb to put hand on the hip when they were up 4 with seconds left. Say what you will about the refs but all Kawamura had to do was not touch him at all, let him make the 3 and then inbound the ball because France had to foul

Fuck ref fuck France fuck Paris they deserve nothing

Compared to other fouls I’ve seen throughout this tournament that was nothing and they basically bailed out France. Definitely home cooking for the host nation.

The biggest mistake was that kawamura sagged off to double Gobert when they were up 4. Just live with the two and this shot never goes up in the first place

The home cooking for France was unreal, I would be pissed af if I were Japan.

japan should have won this game, but well Refs save them from an upset and worst in their own home court…

Is end of the game intentional fouling allowed in FIBA? If so Japan should’ve just fouled and played the FT game to end the game.
That was bad coaching if that’s the case.

Home court reffing at its most blatant. bleedin sham. Let Japan have its day in the sun

Kawamura proved he can not only hang, but stand out around NBA talent. It is a shame the refs cost Japan the game.

Maybe Japan will stop worshipping France as a result.

Kawamura was cooking the whole game, shame it had to end this way

Fucking crime bro

the betting odd for japan vs france was at 1000 to 1 minimum. so it would have been a nice payday for the underdogs…needed some help from the refs.

France has always been the best at cooking. 🙂

Waek foul but there was hip touch

That was really a soft call.
But Japan fuck this up.
You’re 4 and the only thing you need to do is to not foul a 3 shot. They can easily just stand up and do nothing and they go aggressive.

yeah rigged as fuck but the japanese dude should have just let him shoot the 3

If Japan had won this game, basketball will just surely grow and grow even more over there.
They’d be making manga and anime from this moment. But then the refs…

Tough but foul. You can’t hand check a shooting player. I really wanted to see Japan winning this one but crying about the play is useless.
It’s a foul. And it doesn’t matter whether it was a soft foul. In that situation you keep your hands to yourself.
