Did they just challenge that call?

[BradInATX 9208]

Sucks for Harden that we'll probably get a Covid vaccine right about the time he completes his beard mask

If the Bucks lose to the Heat, Bud is absolutely getting fired. It's shocking how bad of a playoff coach he is compared to a regular season coach, and he has not idea how to manage a playoff rotation. It isn't the regular season - you have to shorten the rotation. 

 

I don't know that he would get fired, but...yeah, he's out of his element once the playoffs start.

The bigger question is if the Bucks lose the series, the Giannis to whoever sweepstakes season begins.

[Dutchrudder 11115]

Does anyone want to win this game?  Just so sloppy all around...

[hobbes2702 12804]

Holy shit guys. Everyone just calm down lol

[MNLonghornFUKM 8799]

What the fuck just happened

[ztejas 43263]

That was one of the nuttiest sequences in the playoffs I've ever seen.

[aggie08 21431]

D'Antoni strikes me as a dude who just wants to go home and start looking at Indiana real estate.

[youdunnf'dup 2147]

Lol this game is fucking ridiculous 

[aggie08 21431]

Remember when the NBA started fining players $5,000 for flopping, and it made a real, tangible difference?

Yeah, me either.

[Dutchrudder 11115]

HARDEN REDEEMED! L O FUCKING L!!! hahahahahah

that jump is gonna be a meme

[MNLonghornFUKM 8799]

Lmmfao

Dort's scaring me a little. Feeling himself and getting loose with the basketball. Late game turnover or terrible shot seems likely.

Why not both

[Dutchrudder 11115]

I can't fucking believe that just happened. Instead of shooting the ball to win the game, he turn around and chucks it at Harden for a hopeful inbounds play with like 1 second left????

 

ahahhahahahaha

The worst thing that can happen to a bad offensive player is that they make early shots.

[Dutchrudder 11115]

Ok, so Houston gets to inbounds with 1.6 left, OKC has a foul to give. The way to guarantee the win is to toss the ball towards the OKC hoop, and punch it up in the air. Nobody can foul, the clock starts, and nobody can call time out until it's possessed. 

[MNLonghornFUKM 8799]

And Here we go

[Wulaw Horn 18980]

Here comes houston getting Lillard’ed. 

[aggie08 21431]

What the fuck?? Just fucking throw it to Adams for an easy dunk!

[hobbes2702 12804]

Holy shit NBA officiating at its finest

[Dutchrudder 11115]

Wow, never seen that happen at the end of a game 7. What a ticky tack call. 

[ztejas 43263]

Why the fuck would you not have Chris Paul shoot that shit 

[hobbes2702 12804]

And he missed

[Blotto 23432]

1 FT?

[Wulaw Horn 18980]

20 minutes to play last 2 seconds. 

[MNLonghornFUKM 8799]

Can harden be inside the 3 pt arc when the FT shooter gets the ball?

Danilo is a better FT shooter % wise I believe

The worst officiating at the end of today's games, Jerry. The worst.

Or give it to him 25 feet from the rim. You know, whichever.

[ztejas 43263]

Can we talk about how fucking awful Westbrook was down the stretch?

[Radical Larry 28528]

"Offensively, I felt like shit"

[Drew 2331]

He had a great defensive play that helped seal the game...but if I’m a Rockets fan I’m still worried as hell about him late in games and in game 7s. He has a good game and this isn’t close.

Just stunningly bad two games in a row.

Nothing to worry about, we were a 2nd round team at best going into this. Anything more than 5 games against the Lakers will be a surprise to me. 

[LTtxfan 48966]

Not sure what Donovan drew up on that inbounds play for final shot, but that was a SHIT result... Not even a shot attempt for OKC

[MNLonghornFUKM 8799]

He only had 2 timeouts and 6 reviews

Shit's maddening. And the inbounder was fucking locked into whatever he called. The thought of audible-ing to the 7 footer being face guarded by a 6'5" dude with no one between him and the basket was never on the table.

Harden was inside the 3 pt arc arguing the call with Russ on Gallinaris free throw miss

Hahaha. Just add it to the shitshow.

Fortunately it wouldn't have mattered. I guess.

I look at this shit all of the time because it’s never called.

 

 

My biggest peeve is when inbounder receive the ball and take a blatant step with the ref looking right at it.

Mine is coach on the court next to ball.

Eh, shouldn't have been a foul to begin with, so I would say it's offsetting bullshits.

[d2o 1602]

The overprotection of shooters has gone way too far.   Meanwhile they are letting guys wrestle in the lane.   The Giannis call was terrible.  The ball was gone and it had no effect on the shot.   The Dragic call was bad as well.   The announcers have been talking about fouling shooters since the bubble started.   Most of those calls werent really fouls.    Its like they dont want defenders to contest shooters at all now.

[Radical Larry 28528]

Good hire. He’s close with KD. Jacque Vaughn staying on
