Oh that looked clean clean. Reaves should have passed it DFS was wide open.
He's been bad this game.

Reaves' whistle is elite. Not like a couple of years ago when they were fighting for a playoff spot, but damn does that dude get the benefit of the doubt.

Hand is part of the ball?

Is the rule still the hand is part of the ball?

They'll get a whistle in game 3 in Minny as well. The media can hype them up, it goes even at 2-2 and then we have the actual series.
Unfortunately, this is very realistic. The Wolves want to prove they are title contenders though and to do that you should be able to survive some tough calls and still get the W.

I think the refs have been even, or at least close enough that it's not affecting anything. They have bought some dumb foul baits like Reaves did once, but overall not that bad. A few too many ticky tack calls though.

Isn't the arm on Reaves a foul?

Refs still hate Luka. Silver might need to have a talk with them after the game and remind them he's on the Lakers now
