Kawhi gets away with that hook so much. Gotta flop to get the call.

Why is Kawhi allowed to hook people every play?

Kawhi in a so called bad game finds himself randomly with 18/5/3 on 7-12 shooting and great D this quarter.

This is where the Magic inexperience may bite them. When the superior team goes on a big run, how do you respond? Scared or do you settle down?

Why do players give that "WTF?" face after they've been whistled for obvious fouls? Probably the most annoying part of the game for me.

How are Raps winning a title when their ''star'' Point guard is a non factor? we've seen this story before.

Gasol’s foot clearly out of bounds as he’s touching the ball. These refs are clueless

They are, especially the last 3 minutes or so. Late 2nd, early in 3rd, I don't think it was more than them just hitting open shots.

Refs need to do a better job of calling that hooking call. It happens a lot and they always pick and choose when they call it

Raptors have no awareness when feeding the paint.

He also gets away with about 20 moving screens a game. Trust me, I've seen it in two playoff series.

Vuc has been a huge disappointment!
