Tatum gets the goofiest whistle. The man can just lose his balance and stumble into them.

It’s such a terrible look for the league and a horrific precedent being set.

Derrick White is shooting 51% from three on 8 attempts per game these playoffs.

Crazy heater he's on.

Meh, I'm OK with it. Not like he's a serial offender like Draymond. It'd suck to effectively kill off the Denver vs Minny series due to a heat bag. I mean, it's probably likely already done, but game 3 will be huge to see if Denver has anything left in the tank. Without Murray they might as well raise the white flag.

Yes, it would suck if a player was idiotic enough to kill a series by throwing objects TWICE while play was going on where a player could get seriously injured but that is on Murray not silver, or at least it should have been.

Dame put up 31.3 PPG on 64% TS% against Indy playing half the time on a bum leg.

The fact he threw it at the ref twice is crazy lol

Can't let how it would affect a series determine the punishment. What he did is as dangerous as any flagrant in the playoffs.

At risk of incurring the wrath of Stelly, anyone wanting us to trade for Giddey should take a good look at this OKC v Mavs game.

I don't think he offers much if he's not the one with the ball in his hands initiating action. He can't shoot reliably enough, and isn't a great defender. Has great vision as a passer and a decent floater game but I don't know where Giddey fits on a championship contender if he doesn't have the ball (which he wouldn't get here with Dame and Giannis doing most of the ball handling duties).

I hear you! He maybe fits okay as a secondary ball handler, but there are too many ball handlers in OKC so he's probably third at best on the pecking order (and from 3-5 they're really just contributing to ball movement more than running plays).

I imagine his value and any price for a trade or contract would be about being a primary ball handler. No idea what to think.

Giddey would have been fun from like 2013 to 2016.

When I first saw the brackets, I thought the winner of Dallas and Clips would handle OKC but I may have the revisit that one. Just one game of course but OKC looks very strong when they put a lot of shooting on the floor around their core.
