Refs flop Lightning out of game

Why did the referees feel that they had to take control of the game?

Screen had taken a few legitimate charges earlier in the game, and the questionable offensive fouls against Dandy weren't even due to flopping e.g. the Hill-Ardossi 'collision'.

Moreover, the referees had been calling incredibly soft (non-existent) blocking fouls on both teams all game.

Confusing and frustrating to watch. I can hardly imagine how it would have been for the coaches and players.

The ref just reached his boiling point in the 4th after already giving them a warning in the first quarter. He was just as annoyed as I was with the constant screaming like they got shot on every contact and flailing about. I hate it in soccer and in basketball. Players need to get a hold of this and change the culture Refs can't do it.
