This isn’t the one to challenge, either challenge the earlier strip foul they called on KD in the first half or the one on Ayton just now.

Come on Monty.

Williams SHOULD have challenged the Ayton foul as Brown traveled; Durant clearly hacked him here, so this is a waste now.

They let all these fouls go in the first half. It's super frustrating as a fan to have a complete 180, must be extra frustrating for the players.

This is so fun
SHAZAM!

Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

I would never use a challenge, ESPECIALLY in the playoffs, unless it's on a crucial play near the end (or a questionable call in the 4th that would foul a star out).

This game has been pretty egregious and blatant with the refs favoring everything under the Sun for Denver. This is a really bad look for the NBA's image of promoting equity and lack of biases from the refs rigging games.

This game has been so tight and teams shooting so poorly, it's nice we have that KD banked 3. Could be the difference.

Refs bailed the Nuggets out hard in that 3rd. At least Booker is pissed now.

That's all he needs and if Durant wants to wake up his shot, that might help
