There was no punch

Agreed. They replayed it like 5 times. Multiple angles, slow motion. There was no punch and no elbow. He did push with his left hand, but his right arm remained extended.

So Porzingis won't take a dribble to post up a guy whose like 8 inches shorter than he is?

Looks like Kimbo Slice is back from the dead and changed careers

WHAT A **** JOKE

Did he even touch his nads? Looked like a flop.

He made contact with him. It was a blatant foul. If that’s George Hill it’s absolutely a foul.

No it wouldn’t be no matter who it was that was a flop he reacted like he was shot lol Smart was boding all game worse than that. The Celtics were trying to get Giannis out of the game because that’s the only way they have a chance.

Not even counting the last two fouls.. How are the refs calling 10x the pump fakes travels then Giannis travels in the game..

I don’t think it was worthy of a flagrant but that’s gotta be a common foul. That’s for sure a common foul if Theis does that to Giannis.

Yeh but i think it was making up for the earlier off foul called on giannis where olejele or whatever his name is, clearly flopped. Giannis being mvp also played a role no doubt. Fans have been starved of action and the best players.

Replay rules say they only are checking for in or out of the circle, not to overturn a charge to a block because Smart was moving.

Was a challenge, I believe.

They never said there was a challenge on my broadcast.

Harden plays defense like a trainer.

Houston Covington.

I'm glad he's left the Timberpups, but I can't stand the brand they play in Houston.

Tucker almost got murdered O_O

the play before the theis gut shot was a clear push-off with his right forearm and the refs have a clear view of it. This was the possession right after Giannas picked his 5th.

Both teams had 68 FTs tonight. It was almost unwatchable at a point.
If they gave fouls for trying to get over/under a screen we could had 168 FTs instead.
This crap happens on almost every PNR.
We only had stoppage because the ref thought that Giannis actually punched Theis in the balls which was clearly not the truth but the ref fall for this because it was out of his view and Theis flopped.
Giannis huge palm was open close to Theis stomach trying to get over him to guard the shooter.
Imagine fouling out a superstar for a play like that..

I clearly see some knees being shoved into Giannis here. Dirty play.

The Mavs are so incredibly bad defensively, everyone looks lost.

He’s protected, should’ve been a push off but refs won’t foul out Giannis and we shouldn’t put the loss on that, we were pretty average
