Lol Crowder passed on a good look from 3 in favor of trying to bait a call. Just play basketball guys pls

Glad Crowder didn’t get rewarded for that ridiculous Middleton-esque 3pt foul baiting attempt.

That move by Booker.... if that was Giannis yesterday, Giannis would have been on the line.

And that is why officiating is roublesome.

I think Luka has the ability like Lebron to elevate the floor of team like crazy even in playoffs if you surround him with 3&D guys.

Luka needs to get in shape and chill with the refs. That's his off season homework.

Go on, Luka. Go on and snivel to the officials. You crashed into Ayton and that's on you. Crowder with the extra as you were falling down wasn't necessary but also wasn't the cause for it.

Get up and get on with it. Yapping at the officials is going to get you teched up and you had it coming.

Yeah Luka has to bring up his playoff mental game. That whole standing back, glaring, sarcastic smiling is only holding his team back with its distraction. I get that Luka's an emotional player and that's a strength for him, but there is point at which it starts becoming a focus on hard done by rather than executing (like not getting back on D or taking dumb fouls on D for revenge) that it distracts or even hurts his team.

Ayton is lost in an island and he don't know what to do. Having really easy spots but the situations that they feed him are not the same when he normally recieve or the passes aren't clean because Paul and Booker has two guys all over him.

When Luka plays angry he either kills the other team or goes into his own head and loses focus. Let's see how it turns out. Go Mavs!

Agree, and play where they called offensive foul on Booker should have been 3rd on Luka since he was moving ...
