Draymond commits four fouls on one play and still comes up complaining. Amazing. :lol:

If Robert Williams can't stay on the floor cause of defense, what hope is there for any big?

Steph cooked them in the 3rd, he's been so good these finals. I'd say it is on pace for the best series of his career, would you agree?

I feel like he's been better than Al in his minutes this game but idk. Bostons refusal to go completely small is interesting.

2019 WCF comes to mind as a pretty ridiculous series. i'd certainly say this has been more impressive so far though given the defense faced

i am not saying curry did it on purpose

but i am unsure if it should count as a foul, let alone a flagrant one

the shooter shouldnt get fouls if he collides by mobing forward imo

Yeah he was absurd in that series, but let's be honest - Portland defense isn't in the same galaxy to this Celtics monster. He was also absurd in 2015 WCF against Houston.

Horford moved forward far more than Steph. Obvious shooting foul for me.

defenders closing out are by definition moving forward a lot

the question is if they enter the shooter landing space, which horford did but arguably only cause curry was jumping forward

i am very unsure on that call
