Even Lebron never got these favorable calls compared to Giannis. How was that not a goal-tend?

Giannis is easily the worst player to have to play when it comes to officiating. Thanks god they never officiated LeBron this way

Refs ain't calling anything today. They're letting a ton of obvious fouls go. But I prefer this style of officiating over refs who call too many fouls.

Obvious the refs just call Giannis differently. Anyone not biased must see that right?!

We get excited because we're fans, but if you're a neutral watching this game it's borderline unwatchable. Brick after brick.


I'm neutral, it's two truly elite defenses playing going at it, it's enjoyable to me because of how high level this is. Especially when you hear about how current era teams can't D up.

Why is Giannis the NBA illuminati's favorite puppet? Why?!

Lol. They definitely officiated LeBron that way for years. Drive into a crowd, barrel into people. LeBron spent years getting easy looks but running into people and pushing off.

Melo and amare should thrive in this offense. If Jeremy Tyler and cole Aldridge looked that good in summer league then us knick fans have a lot to be excited about. Make room for all the bandwagoners when we take off

D has been respectable, but also a lot of wide open 3-point shots being missed

On replay, its kind of wild that they missed that goaltend. Blatantly obvious.

Giannis is running people over but if your defensive strategy is to repeatedly try getting a charge call then your just begging the refs to **** you.
