You'd think Luka would be on that list. Guess not.

I honestly don't understand how they came to that conclusion. The guy couldn't even stand on his own two feet after that hit.

I like Rudy finally fighting back. He’s been a punching bag for everyone.

I don't get the tech on Gobert? What did he do exactly?

Or do you mean he literally punched Luka the other game?

This double technical stuff is such bull. Lively and Jones both did 10x as much as Gobert. Rudy didn’t do anything.

I didn't see what Rudy did to get a T. I saw him like slap down on the players after the foul but that doesn't seem T worthy.

Let's hope they're right. We don't need a repeat of the Tua Tagovailoa incident


Or IT in Boston incident where doctors insisted he can play on that hip.

Are you guys blind? Rudy instigated everything by pulling DJJ's head/neck as he got blocked.

Kyrie needs to figure it out. Can't hit anything these last two games.

Glad some of y'all aren't refs. Double technical was the right call there.
