Maxey was trying to slow his roll but then was left to laugh at what was coming out of his mouth.

Steph crying & kicking chairs. Dray is so over the top. I'd be sick of it too, in his shoes.

So apparently the "no commiting fouls cause we have good defenders" Lakers had 20 fouls in 48 minutes against the hospital Grizzlies, compared to 10 fouls in 58 minutes against us. If only we had someone better at drawing fouls than Giannis and Dame...

Yes, I know we shat the bed, but I'm still salty.
And afraid about the playoffs against bigger markets.

Will have to win by 15 to win by 2 in Boston.

We already know Brooks is nuts and his reaction is too hot, but evidence is mounting that Giddey is an odd duck.

I really don't know why someone would want to be a ref. Not only a thankless job, but you have to deal with people yelling at you every day. Sorry a dude made a mistake or did something you thought was a mistake...guess he just deserves to die now?

I always find it funny that it's an unwritten rule to a) not help an opposing player up, and b) not accept help from an opposing player.

There are players who don't abide by it.

However if someone doesn't want your help, you can't force them to take it. At least you shouldn't.

Don't think it would be crazy to see the Suns beat Denver in a 7-game series. They were the only team last postseason to give them any sort of trouble and that was with CP3 and Ayton being hurt/ineffective. They just matchup really well against them, and for all his brilliance, Jokic's Achilles heel is still gonna be any team with multiple perimeter shot-creators that can abuse him on high pick-and-roll switches. It's one of the series where Nurkic isn't getting automatically played off the floor either.

I know I'm falling for the narrative, but honestly 4 of the possible play-in teams could beat the Nuggets.
Mavs - Luka and Ky could easily go nuclear for 4 games, they have been playing great
Suns - Your comment above
Lakers - LBJ/AD wont make it 4 rounds but again, AD could put up a few performances like he did against us and I never count LBJ/Tony Brothers out when they just need to win a few games.

Less so, but even the Warriors can go throwback if the refs let DG play.

I would be handing out technicals like crazy. I mean, they could stop it all whenever they wanted to if their union just said they were going to T-up any verbal abuse like the rules say.

I think Iverson is the worst of all time. Dude would scowl and say things to the refs even when he got a whistle.

Essentially that's Draymond too, he gets a great whistle and away with more BS that should Ts than anyone else. Yet still just constantly goes nuts on refs.

That's what makes Green so annoying.

He's allowed to get away with like 4 or 5 technicals a game before he gets ejected.

Meanwhile in Milwaukee, Giannis is getting ejected for sort of glancing at guys.

Hawks seem to matchup well with Boston.Tight game again.
