Did he even touch his nads? Looked like a flop.


Thats why that call didn't bug me (I'm with JVG here). No one would want that call to eject the star player of your team in a critical playoff game. They'd cry rigged for the soft touch foul + flop. Giannis did a slight push off and for whatever reason it hurt him/struck a nerve (I don't think he flopped that call).


So basically, let stars get away with whatever they want? What a laugh, Giannis has equality written on his back.

Whistle came a long way after the play happened because Theiss was staggering around like he got shot. It was pathetic. They didn't deem it bad enough to blow the whistle when the contact happened because it was minor contact. He's clearly been practicing theatrics and flopping with Smart during the close down period.

I don't think the Theis play was a foul (especially in a close game that late), and I have no clue how they reasoned to stop the play as a result. That was just a weird sequence.

That was absolutely a block on Smart.

I’m still stumped on how Giannis didn’t foul out. He punched Theis right in the groin. At minimum it’s gotta be a regular personal foul.

I was told that Tatum is a Superstar. Those 5 points + 3 Assists are very typical superstar statlines. I am convinced.

Replay rules say they only are checking for in or out of the circle, not to overturn a charge to a block because Smart was moving.

I don’t think it was worthy of a flagrant but that’s gotta be a common foul. That’s for sure a common foul if Theis does that to Giannis.

Was a challenge, I believe.
