They actually called a take foul. They haven't called one all playoffs

That's the first time in this series, the Celtics allowed Lively a rim run. Great timeout by Mazzulla.

I don't like these non-calls against the Mavs. They have to weather the storm here.

Transition take foul. Can’t foul to stop a fast break.

That's a man's jam by Lively. That's how you finish.

Gafford and Lively have already gotten more involved this half.

It was "take" foul. A foul to basically stop a transition opportunity. Clear path is a different foul.

Celtics ain’t gonna shoot this bad from 3 again. Mavs should take advantage. I would fear them if they don’t. These are wide open,

I mean if there no Mavs ahead of Holiday I understand. But there were two of them well ahead of Holiday.

Except they haven't really enforced this rule for a few months. This definitely was a take foul but I really don't like the inconsistency
