Minnesota coach Cheryl Reeve was livid in her postgame news conference following her teams loss in the decisive Game 5 on Thursday night to Los Angeles.After congratulating the Sparks for winning the WNBA championship with a 77-76 victory over the Lynx, Reeve lit into the officiating.Its really unfortunate that players continually put themselves out there, playing and competing at a really high level. Whether it was the 8-second call in LA or the game today, doesnt matter, OK? The game today, its not fair to the players, Reeve said. Its not enough just to apologize or send out a memo that they got something wrong, OK? These players are so invested and something must be done about the officiating in this league because its not fair to these great players we have.Reeves remarks came after the officials didnt review a shot by Nneka Ogwumike with 1:12 left in the game that appeared on replays to have come after the shot clock had expired. The officials never reviewed the play, which gave Los Angeles a 73-71 lead.By WNBA rules, in the final 2 minutes of a game, plays are only reviewable immediately. Earlier in the game, time can elapse off the clock and they can still be reviewed.It was reviewable at the time when she shot it, Reeve said. The referees at that point didnt think anything was wrong. They didnt understand it was the end of the clock. They didnt hear the shot clock. When they put the ball in play, the play is no longer reviewable.This wasnt the first missed call in this series. In Game 4, the Lynx benefited when the officials didnt call an 8-second violation late in that game. The WNBA admitted the next day that its officials had missed that call.Last season, in the Western Conference finals, the Lynx were aided by a foul with 1.5 seconds left in a tie game against Phoenix. The league said that foul should not have been called.Its unfortunate were having this discussion, Reeve said. The number of people that have contacted us and said this shot was no good, its unfortunate. I mean, I dont know what happens from there. Maybe they still win. I dont know. Thats why I dont want to take anything away from LA.Lynx star Maya Moore didnt realize the controversy until asked about it afterward in a sullen losing locker room.OK, that doesnt make me feel any better, Moore said.She said she thought she saw one of the officials signal for a review and was surprised to hear that didnt occur, the details of the final minutes clearly lost in the haze of defeat.Well, it doesnt mean anything now, Moore said.

John Tavares, Thomas Vanek and Kyle Okposo were also being counted on to slow down sizzling Rangers forward Rick Nash. That plan didnt go so well early. The Adelaide 36ers have extended their unbeaten run in the NBL to five games after blowing out the Taipans in Cairns with a 96-83 win.The Snakes looked to be in for a rough Monday night when the 36ers shot out to a double-digit lead courtesy of Nathan Sobey, who looked determined to give his former club a wake-up call.The Warrnambool-born guard was an energiser bunny on his old floor and slammed home two dunks before a corked wrist in the second quarter seemed to slow his output before he rebounded to finish on 19 points.Hurt by a Sydney Kings comeback earlier in the round, the Taipans sparked one of their own to end the first quarter just three points behind, with their equal-opportunity offence coming from Mitch McCarron, Nate Jawai and Mark Worthington.Cairns then continued in the second quarter to lead by nine points when centre Jawai began to find his rhythm after missing a two-handed jam in the first quarter.Adelaide big man Daniel Johnson responded, though, and his input was critical to the 36ers regaining the lead early in the third term - one they wouldnt relinquish.The Taipans shooting percentage abandoned them when they needed it the most in the dying stages, finishing thee game at 41 per cent from the field compare with Adelaides 52 per cent.ddddddddddddThe battle between the bigs was particularly fascinating - 36ers rock Daniel Johnson earned bragging rights over Jawai with 27 points and nine rebounds to the Cairns centres 17 points and seven rebounds.Adelaide point man Jerome Randle was successful in shutting down Cairns counterpart Travis Trice, who left the floor with five points to his name.Adelaide return home to take on the Sydney Kings on Friday night in a top-of-the-table clash, while the Taipans will remain at the Snakepit to battle the Illawarra Hawks on Saturday.36ers coach Joey Wright said Randle and Sobeys lock-down defence of Trice and Cameron Gliddon was crucial.Trice and Gliddon were non-factors tonight, and that doesnt happen often. It was a huge area we targeted coming into this game, Wright said.The Taipans have lost two in a row at home, and coach Aaron Fearne was blunt.If I was a fan I would be pissed off and disappointed. It is embarrassing for me that we would come here and play like that, he said. ' ' '
