100% not a foul. Great call by the refs. I'm glad that stepping to the side into the defensive player isn't rewarded.


He would have made contact regardless affecting the shot. He drifted that direction to emphasize the contact...its a terrible no call.

That's the angle I was asking for. Thanks man.

It makes it a little close, but probably still a foul.

Jazz fans know about missing calls in the last second, too. Condolences.

Looks like he brazed his jersey slightly . Paul should of leaned in more

That clearly shows Gobert’s body make contact with PG body


No ****... George initiated the contact by stepping into Gobert.

I love the no call after Paul George was pushing off the entire series to try to get open. The guy fouls at least 20 times a game trying to create space.

Sack the refs. Solely because of the terrible call by the refs that a series was unfairly decided

They don't fine players for making mistakes, do you suggest players should be fined for missing shots like refs should be fined for missing calls?

And yeah, it doesn't look like a foul to me.

From this angle it doesn’t look like foul, but I’m 100% if it was James Harden this would have been 3 free throws..

While I agree, that call is made every damn time. Just watch Wade... he lived off of that


Idk man. The behind the basket angle will tell us a lot if we can find it.


PG definitely initiated the contact without a doubt but that is consistently called every game.

I only watched the final quarter but I'm 99% sure there were similar calls made in this game.

I hate when they call it but if they're going to call it then they need to do it every time

I thought some one said pg13 jump into Gobert, Gobert literally jump into pg13. Thats a clear foul.

George does jump into him. Gobert is contesting to the side of the offensive player like you are taught to do, but George moved his body to get contact. Goberts leg was in George's shooting space though. Might have gotten the call by just taking a normal three as well as having an opportunity to make it.

He barely touched George AFTER George took a ste AND leaned into him. What are you talking about?

To fans whining over PG not getting that call, I weep for your predicament.

People should look at this before complaining about the no call.

That was a FANTASTIC no call by the refs.


This is the angle to decide from.

It could have gone either way. Probably a foul in normal circumstances.

I disagree. Gobert made a poor defensive play and would have hit PG regardless and a very obvious foul should have been called.

Fitting that OKC's season ended on such a garbage sequence.
