I noticed this too. It is abnormal for an NCAA game.

Sengun didn't even fall for a fake. He just jumped like there was no time on the clock.

And Jimmy slapping Adams on the dick on his way down. Draymond taught him well.

Warriors not being able to exploit the Rockets two big men lineup while the Rockets continue to get second chance and foul shots

Screw it. Let them hack Adams. If they are in the penalty with 5mins on the clock that is good

Was just thinking Sengun would be perfect for the Lakers. Unfortunately they don't have anything close to trade for him, but he would absolutely be an amazing supportive interior presence and facilitator for Lebron and Luka.
