Give Me Control looks at some interesting officiating moments in this past week's EuroLeague Rounds 25 and 26, trying to answer whether Trinchieri's complaints make sense and did the refs cost Fenerbahce a win against PAO.
EuroLeague referees, not once but twice this past week, used the Instant Replay System (IRS) to correct almost identical mistakes that should never have been made in the first place.

In both situations, the officials made additional rule errors that had to be corrected later in the game.
The other Rounds 25 and 26 games were not free of other obvious errors as well.
Did referee mistakes cost Fenerbahce a win at Panathinaikos? And, as he has done repeatedly during the season after tough losses, was Zalgiris coach Andrea Trinchieri justified in complaining about the officiating in his team's 87-89 loss vs EA7 Emporio Armani Milan?
