Bulls still winless against the top teams :wink:

Nuggets made an intelligent adjustment at half. Put Jokic on the perimeter as a stretch big drew Ayton out of the paint and opened up the rim for lay-ups.

JaMychal Green should not be on an NBA roster.

In the span of about 20 seconds, he turns the ball over off of a rebound and fouls Booker for an And-1 and on the other end, misses a point-blank layup.

I'm done with NBA reffing. It's one thing if it's totally incompetent but there's literally 0 consistency from game to game. You have a game where Boston can hand-check and get into space with impunity and another whether Booker gets every single call when he jacks it up. NBA officiating is just a complete joke.

Pushing off is as NBA as apple pie

Not as easy as the entire Raptors lineup hand checking, reaching and commiting body contact fouls on every possession with no call

They are like Philly lite in that regard.

Scottie Barnes has thrown like 4 hips into Cavs guards on screens and im reasonably confident not one has been called and FVV has never seen a push off he didn't like. He just pushed off Okoro to call a timeout hahaha

Cleveland has been grabbing Fred on almost every pick and roll. Refs let both teams be physical tonight.

Its just tough, I feel like we go through this every game for the last month. Darius Garland is officiated like hes a nobody. He cant buy a foul if his life depended on it. He gets knocked, bumped, grabbed and smothered on drives to the rim 10x per game and they only call fouls 1/5 times. If he got a whistle like Trae Young he would average 35.

To put that in perspective that Im not just BSing. Young has shot 482 FTs this year. Garland has shot 195.. WHAT??!?!?

Same for Mobley. He is slight in frame and gets shoved around everytime he posts up with no calls. If I had a dollar for everytime a defender put a forearm into his ribs on a shot attempt I could retire.

Meanwhile I cant help but notice the 5-10x per game the other team drives to the rim with a full steam and the slightest reach in from the Cavs bigs draws a foul.

Its not the Raptors, its everything. Its become mind numbing that aggressive teams are allowed to get away with murder because the refs cant just foul everybody out by halftime. Meanwhile Okoro cant look at somebody wrong on defense without a whistle being called. It doesnt make sense.

Can't even touch the suns. This is ridiculous

The Suns never lose their composure. This team is focused.

maxwellcu · Post #74 » by **maxwellcu** » Fri Mar 25, 2022 3:10 am

officials dominating and i mean absolutely DOMINATING this game. shaq style. most DOMINANT officials ever.

its **** incredible that in this "superstar" league where embiid gets to shoot 40-50 FTs a game that jokic gets officiated like some bum off the street. in the same game, scrubs on the suns are shooting FTs everytime they get the ball.

i don't get it.

gottamakeit · Post #75 » by **gottamakeit** » Fri Mar 25, 2022 3:11 am

Suns benefited so much from the whistle in the 4th

falcolombardi · Post #76 » by **falcolombardi** » Fri Mar 25, 2022 3:12 am

i wonder who is gonna step up against the suns in the playoffs

these guys just feel like a basketball AI of perfect execution

reminiscent of the early 2010's spurs

Peregrine01 · Post #77 » by **Peregrine01** » Fri Mar 25, 2022 3:13 am

Watching these Suns flail around on both sides to take the lead makes me realize that the NBA reffing rewards flopping, plain and simple. They seemingly made a commitment to not reward this BS earlier on in the season but now it's back bigger than ever.

Wolfgang630 · Post #78 » by **Wolfgang630** » Fri Mar 25, 2022 3:14 am

I never expected Denver to win, but my god Joker if you’re the fking mvp then take more damn shots. 8 frigging shots by near end of the 4th is unacceptable. It shows no aggression from you. We get passing the ball around is fun. You don’t have a team of all stars around you though.

maxwellcu · Post #79 » by **maxwellcu** » Fri Mar 25, 2022 3:16 am

refs force feeding the game to the suns. and i mean the refs will not TOLERATE a victory by any team other than the suns. gross and weird.

why?

the more we watch Bridges, the more realistic the Kawhi comps get
