We all know LeBron would never foul out of a game and neither would other ... league stars. The different treatment is obvious, i've mentioned it only yesterday. The really ugly face we see here is not Jokic's.


lol, it's incredible how much space LeBron takes up in your head

Yeah it’s definitely in the NBAs best interest for the MVP to be swept in the second round so they can push their interests of the juggernaut fan base of the Phoenix Suns. These refs are just a bunch of company men by calling the rules correctly.


No, if they were calling the rules correctly, Jokic would have been rewarded with free throws on his drives instead of the whistle being swallowed. Cause and effect.

Booker won't do anything.

Weak ejection. But it looks like it fired up the team.

Booker is smart enough not to get kicked out of a game his team needs him. he did the right thing though and stood up for his teammate, nothing wrong with what booker did.

Denver's "No stopping us" hype video is awkward after the Jokic ejection.

Connaughton didn't curl up like a little ************ for 5 minutes. He'll learn next time. And it will happen many times going forward after what these refs pulled tonight.

Exactly. The nba has such a toxic flopping culture that he will be informed to next time go to the ground, lay in fetal position for 5 minutes and if possible get wheeled off the court in a stretcher to ensure the opposing player is suspended and ejected

that seems to be a running theme on this board lately. if something happens with jokic you have ten posters whining about how that would not have happened if it was such and such. it's an old act now.

There’s nothing in the rules that allows players to lash out if they don’t get their way. Jokic acted like an idiot, and was suitably rewarded
