TO's piling up for the Nets. Cs stifling D getting to the ball right at the pass if not sooner.

Nets have been a turnover machine all season long. That is not going to change suddenly in the playoffs. Usually all the bad habits from RS show up in playoffs. I blame Nash 100% for this

If the celtics keep getting away with the wrestling on Durant to deny him the ball KD will be exhausted by the end of the 3rd quarter.

This first quarter has been horrible to watch with this officiating. Bad product.

Well in fairness it's also tough to get some consistency when the main players are so in and out of the lineup. What you're saying is also true, but that chemistry and familiarity with tendencies and the system also factor in.

White got away with like 5 fouls on that play before the last was finally called.

KD is literally getting wrestled and Raptors can't even breath on Embiid .. NBA reffing is ridiculous.

Ya the fouls Curry never gets either that opposing fanbases always ignores in any discussion, but easily can be found on any video review.

Refs seem to be soft on the perimeter, but refusing to make calls in the paint. It feels like the worst of both worlds, where everyone’s mad about not getting calls, but we have to watch a ton of free throws. Just let them play
