SGA is literally ref baiting by snapping his head back every time he drives in. that's vintage Harden. He has 8 FTAs in the first half.

I'm having a hard time really accurately judging SGA's level... he's got the moves of a Kobe/Wade, but lacks the strength/athleticism those guys had... but his numbers end up similar, and I really think it is because of his ref baiting. I want to be charitable and say that's not the case, but it feels like he's trying to get a whistle on every single possession.

I like how Murray doesn’t have a scratch yet somehow just got knocked down by prime Tyson. Holy flop

Minnesota is becoming overrated as hell. They beat up fat Luka and 60 year old LeBron with no center and the Curry-less Warriros. I think they will lose to both OKC or Denver.

That might be the worst 3 minutes I've ever seen a great team play.

I don't like that they're calling those elbows normal fouls now. I think players are catching wind and they almost have free reign to elbow defenders in the face right now.

Terrible way to finish the half in a close-out game for Okc

If braun misses that contested 3 with OKC up 12, the game might have gotten out of hand. Now its basically tied.

Yep, Minny hasn't played a team anywhere as close to what these two teams are

These two teams are way better than LA or GS
