Poeltl body check's Curry and Raps fans want to complain about the call? Raps fans just love to complain I see.

Curry went up soft and tried to throw a high floater.. If he had taken it in strong and protected the ball, I'd agree... But is Jakob not supposed to contest the shot? he went straight up, and Curry's momentum went into him.

Except half the time they let that go if the block happens first
What an absolute failure and disaster this franchise is, ran by one of the most incompetent front offices in the league.

You need to rewatch the play. Dude came from the other side of the basket. That's not straight up.

It's such a 50/50 call that this was completely dependent on who took the shot, and who blocked it. If it was Tyus Jones who got blocked by LeBron there, no call would have been made.

We see him. It remains to be seen if he can play like this in the playoffs. He hasnt proven he can yet. He has a ton to prove this year.

Was the contact after the ball, and don't your players complain all the time about calls?


Doesn't matter if the contact was after the block, it's a foul.


That's not actually true. It's incidental contact after the missed/blocked shot and Curry is the one moving horizontally while yak is trying to land.

Are we talking about when Derozan clearly kicked the ball out of Klay's hands? Because if there was any justice they would be allowed to call that a kicked ball.

Poeltl wasn't vertical, he moved into Curry.

I think the idea is that the out of bounds event was Curry knocking it. So the 1-2 seconds before when Derozan touched it wasn't reviewable.
