Nice play at the end there. Still not good enough.

Hand is part of the ball. When did you start watching basketball? Tatum needs to stop going so soft on his dunks

This is within striking distance for the Celtics. Not confident though, they are missing their rim attempts and their offense looks stagnant. Cavs offense hasn't been much better though.

Wtf?

By the rules the hand is part of the ball when it's in your hands, so you're wrong.

Referees as crooked as Trump. Making that moolah. 3 calls for Celtics, 7 calls for Cavs. You know how we do

LeBron killed the Cavs with his turnovers. Luckily, the rest of the team hasn't let that do them in thus far.

Yeah, and that wasn't blatant at all. That was the most subtle "kick" I've seen in my entire life.

I don't think it's about intent, but about the action itself, which the league is trying to curb. Same with the whole planting your foot into a player's landing space. You don't mean to injure, but it's the action itself, not it's intention, that is the foul.


Then you might as well call Steph's 3s an offensive foul like 80% of the time

that slight leg swaying motion is completely natural, or at least to me, since I don't shoot square up to the basket like many other guards

I agree, the league has to do a better job of calling that consistently else players have no incentive to make adjustments. I think the way it played out in this instance, even if it was a natural motion, it impeded Love's ability to land, so the evidence of the leg out was convincing to the ref who called it.

Because Korver is old and can't play 40 minutes. Its not like the Celtics took advantage of the situation.

13 point game going into the 4th and I'm kind of excited because that's considered "close" these days. Sigh
