Why is that not a foul to you?

I thought it was going to stand. Luka’s foot hit Joe’s foot. Guess it wasn’t excessive enough

Its just all soft. Some of this contact is so minimalDirk wrote:ejs78 wrote:Watching on my phone but I didn't see Luka touch Joe at all.Dirk wrote:

Oh, he did. There was contact on Joe's foot.
If you re-watch the player later, look for the feet.
The only argument would be if Joe kicked out... to me it looked like he didn't.
To me... it was a foul. But the NBA has been weird lately with "incidental contact".

This feels like the Bucks game.
The Thunder hit some tough shots. Should have been a 25 point lead and it's 12.

Unless you're trying to convince me that Hardy and Powell are best Mavs defensive players according to DRTG, i'm not going to take it seriously. Mavs had what?.. 28 or 29 starting lineup changes? There is nothing consistant with this team, i can't take this stat seriously right now.
Still, Josh is awful in more or less or advanced stats, offensive and defensive, that's hardly coincidence. And eye test is saying that while he is trying very hard in D, he makes a lot of mistakes, enabling attackers to turn corner on him or put him on position he has to foul. His understanding of the game is still very limited, which he is somewhat hiding with enormous energy. But if you look at his D closely, he very rarely prevent players to do whatever they want. Exum is much better in that.
Hardy is not playing enough, with some portion of garbage time, and Powell is somehow in positive lineups and he has limited playing time too.
Yeah if you compare him to Exum that's true but i was not comparing these 2 players. We all know Green had a very slow and rough start, my point was, like Followill posted, Green has made a significant leap in the past 13-15 games, which is great to see.
You can’t take anything these two say seriously. Neither of them know a thing about basketball. Bob8 wants us all to believe that Siakam is also a terrible defender because of advance stats while he freely admits he doesn’t watch the games.

Good TO, 2 bad shots by Luka and Kyrie, and bad defense.

Gafford should be playing when Luka plays ....We've already seen players can't leave Gafford on the baseline or they give up dunks

Need this call overturned to make up for that terrible 3 Luka took and keep the foul off him.

Love the way Luka is playing today. Looks like he hears how some say SGA is better then him and is on a mission to prove them wrong. Some of the most locked in on D I've seen from him, even if some of the calls aren't going his way.

Good first half so far the lead could've been larger but mavs cooled down from 3s.
Gafford should get more minutes he looking good out there and he can finish around the hoop.

Do you know that your only contribution on this forum in last few weeks is talking about me? I'm kinda flattered but I believe that's unnecessary and not very interesting to others.
Maybe administrator can say something about unnecessary personal comments, especially if someone is not even in the conversation.

The whistles, 2 horrible shots by Luka, horrible shot and TO by Kyrie kept it close.
Really locked in on defense except few possesions.

For real, I still dont get why they called 3 straight offensive fouls on us at the very beginning of the 2nd quarter.

Argue his points not him, the forum is here to dicuss disagreements.

I am arguing his point. He’s hunting for numbers to say that Green is a worse defender than Hardy, Powell, and Curry. Pointing out that he does this a lot isn’t an attack.
