Refs gave a technical for that?

Now Rudy has 5. Not great. Basically ineffective against Jokic defensively.

The 5th foul was clearly an over the back but the 4th foul was bs. Jokic hits him in the face and then Gobert gets the foul. God I wish our bigs got the Embiid whistle for us instead of always against.

What is the point of calling a tech like that.....It's the 4th quarter in a high intensity playoff game you gotta allow guys to be a little emotional

5 fouls each on Kat and Rudy. Lots of ticky minor contact calls. It would be great if they called the same on Jockitch.

Nope. Only refs are allowed to get emotion and take things personal and call techs because they are butt hurt

Put someone else on Jokic. They just need to stay in front of him. The goal it to make him work and not have passing options.

They finally call a foul on Jokic when he literally runs over our guy. At least they called it.

No one in the NBA can stop Jokic. He did pretty well all in all. No one player ever is going to be effective on him. Maybe you can scheme your defense around him to make life difficult but that ain't easy.

Double foul? I don't think I have seen that and he got elbowed in the damn face?

Our Bigs are in the worst situation now. 5 fouls each. Just brutal down the stretch here.

Really don't like that double foul call. You can't elbow someone in the face. Towns did that it would be a no brainer foul on him.
