That one wasn't, but KD blocking for Curry on the second 3 was: https://streamable.com/6yrtf

Lol both illegal screens. They can get away with murder but especially in "comeback mode" at the end of games.

I wouldn't be surprised if they called a foul on Rockets trying to fight though a moving screen

Green pushes Rivers into to Tucker and when that didn't work, he's moving backwards into Tucker forcing him to move further away from Durant.
And Tucker goes around him, avoiding the contact, which means they can't call an illegal screen. Draymond never stops moving to actually set a screen either, he immediately goes to the rim once the shot is up, because he's not entangled. Little contact like that would not be called in the last 10 seconds of a game.

KD clearly cuts off a defender going to the shooter. That could have been called, but unlikely given the situation.

Wait Green didn't contact Tucker. You are blind.

This series has been so close I don't think anyone has any clear idea of what will happen, easiest way to lean would be GS having 2 more home games to Houston having 1. 

Just gotta hope Harden has 1 out of his mind game Wednesday because I like our chances if we come back up 3-2.

They didn't bump chests or have significant contact. Their arms touch as Tucker tries to avoid him, but Tucker doesn't even lose his balance. You will never get that called at any point in a game because moving screens only get called when the impacted player winds up on his ass or faceplants, which is why players are so animated when trying to draw fouls. PJ came to play not to flop, so he just kept moving right along. Cp3 probably would have been in the front row if that happened to him, but whatever.
