Trade young is perfect example of manufactured NBA superstar (still not quite there yet). He is allowed two times to push off with his off hand and 2nd push off resulted to foul on defender... Absolutely ridiculous.

nothing good happens when AD starts holding the ball too long before making a move.

This is also a game where I think the refs have done a good job not falling for it, calling it on the floor, etc. And it's still incredibly grating

No one with the Lakers has any business complaining about foul calls. The Lakers hit the bonus with 7 minutes left in the half. Now the refs are trying to make things up.

JAX let Holmes literally euro-walk to the rim. Just disgusting.

I mean that was really hard to watch. You just cant play those two together at the moment. I get that Adams is out tonight, but you gotta start Hernangomez or someone else, or hell just play small with Zion tonight. The lack of defensive awareness with those two out there together is pretty mind blowing haha.

Nope. He can make the occasional great read but he's generally mediocre against the double team. Not like they have a choice with Capela in foul trouble, but smart move by the Hawks.

Is it possible they hit the bonus because the Hawks were legitimately fouling??

Gasol is one of the best interior defenders of all time with zero vertical.

Rockets are solidly a two way playoff team without Harden.

What a disaster for both sides to let the break up happen.

Anyone who knew about these players would’ve seen this coming.

No one really won though Houston has a solid future at least.
Swinging for the fences.

They really don't call fouls on LeBron. Do they?
