Clear foul by Jokic. He’s been getting a great whistle this game even though everyone acts like that’s not the case.

Nvm he totally elbowed Caruso out of bounds to the shadow realm


Ridiculous he gets away with that even after the challenge review.

There is no way you could sit there and tell me that Caruso caused Jokic to move like that with that soft ass push.

Looks like Murray will have to save the Nuggets again.

Clear Jokic foul, but there was clear fouls on Jokic that were not called throughout the game.

Man, Joker is playing bad basketball.

For some reason, a lot of people can't differentiate between Harden/Trae and SGA/Butler. The former are foul baiters, the latter shoot a lot of FTs, but it's not the same and has been a part of the game for a long time.

Iverson also got hammered. But you aren't wrong.
