Gordon from Denver slapped someone two games ago and didn't get tossed so at least they are being consistent i guess.

Wonder what Kerr is going to say about that. I’m guessing he didn’t see it.

Burke is right. Gray gets a generous standard from the refs. He deserves way more ejections/technicals than he gets.

If Green had a messed up thumb Draymond would go after it and try to intentionally injure it

I’m not sure what’s worse, watching Draymond implode or having to listen to Doris talk about it. FML.

Then yelling in the refs face

Jalen Green is a net negative for Rockets. He should be playing around 20 minutes a game.
