On top of that Tatum wasn't even close to hit him in the face. There's no way this can be overturned.

Replace his face with his arm, and there isn't any discussion about this.

Epic flop

That was a flop. That should be a technical on Dragic.

In no universe this is an offensive foul by Tatum. Dragic shouldnt have his chin right on Tatum's shoulder, what was Tatum supposed to do?

LOL @ THAT CHALLENGE

Successful Challenge: Theis has been banned from the league.

If they take away that basket and call a flagrant/offensive foul, I WILL STOP WATCHING THE NBA!!

...for the next 10 seconds.

What's your gripe with Tatum? I notice you've been badmouthing him every chance you get.
When good Tatum shows up I'll have nothing bad to say.

Every single one of your posts mentioning Tatum going back to February have been complaining or negative about him.

Literally, every single one. At least I balance my negative Jaylen takes with constant praising of him.

There is no way I'm hell that's offensive foul.

Not sure it was a flop but no way was that offensive or a flagrant. Dragić stuck his face in there

Tatum went straight up, natural shooting motion. Dragic put his face in. Then flopped.

Dragic hoping to work some Doctor Strange magic on the refs

Isnt that a technical foul for flopping?

celticfan42487 · Post #857 » by **celticfan42487** » Fri Sep 18, 2020 12:31 am

Well in the modern game any contact with the head could be a violent act or whatever.

I didn't see much contact there but Dragic isn't an actor either so I believe Tatum's shoulder must have hit his chin.

If Dragon's mouth was open that can result in a slam shut on your teeth that can be painful if he's not wearing a mouth guard.

I have no idea what the rules are in this situation anymore.

CavemanDoctor · Post #858 » by **CavemanDoctor** » Fri Sep 18, 2020 12:31 am

So glad Miami challenged that lol. Easy lost timeout.

Also, imagine if that was Lowry instead of Dragic. He would legit tackle each ref until they changed the call.

Good, now they don't have a challenge for the rest of the game.

LewisnotMiller · Post #860 » by **LewisnotMiller** » Fri Sep 18, 2020 12:31 am

Doesn't matter if there was chin music. Tatum was in his natural motion and Dragic reached. I literally half severed a guys tongue on a play like that and the could was on him.

Not that he cared at that point.
