I think the NBA loosened restrictions with coaches wearing masks - those who've been fully vaccinated don't need to wear one. I guess some have it off when yelling instructions to their team above the crowd, and at other times put it on in a closer scrum?

Sure -just leave it off permanently as it looks silly constantly sitting on their chins

Refs having a forgettable night. Missed the Giannis inbounds violation. Calling a foul when there was no foul on the inbounds. Earlier not calling an obvious foul on Booker.

If I hear ONE COMPLAINT about Scott Foster in the postgame presser, I hope someone responds to whoever it is that complains with, “Did you see the 4 serial killer calls we swallowed on Booker?”

None of his feet were inbounds. One foot was out and the other was off the ground. Is that a violation?

The NBA just went full blown WWE by refusing to call a 6th foul on Booker. Twice.

congrats refs...
giving him the 5th once it was nothing to cool him down
and than making up by not calling the 6th.

Yup.

That block won them the game, and maybe the Championship.

There's probably noway the Bucks will win down 3-1 going to Phoenix.

Giannis has shed his choker label this series. CP3 reaffirmed his.

First time since Games 2 and Games 3 of the first round that the Suns have lost consecutive games this postseason.

Now doubting my "Suns in 6" prediction.

You aren't wrong, but Jae Crowder inbounds the ball EVERY TIME like that.
