He complains about every call.

The thing is, he usually gets bad calls against him.

However that one was clearly a foul on him on Kyries 3.

Yeah but his second wasn’t.

I hope you're not complaining about the foul on Kyrie's 3P attempt.

Is Jaylen Brown playing tonight? Is he out with an injury or something?

Kyrie got away with a charge on White. That was a bad call

Seth Curry might be the best player in today’s game so far which is crazy.

Was Drummond always this slow?

Nope he's just 1-5. Missing everything.

By surrounding them with 3 shooters? Miami's 2 best players are completely irrelevant from the perimeter yet Heat led the NBA in 3pt shooting

Lol I knew the instant Drumbo let that full court pass go what the result would be

LOL as soon as I saw Drummond wind up from a cross court pass I loudly said "Oh No" - cue turnover.

Nets are too small to not foul and C's play wayy to aggressively to not call it. What do people want? The refs to just not call fouls? Thats not basketball

I think there have been a lot of valid fouls and this would be a high foul game, but there have been a number of calls that should have been no calls, e.g. Kyrie running into White, wrong call and a no-call would have been better.

1st quarter was the most fouls in one quarter of the entire season, it was too many whistles.

He used to be a physical specimen when he was young in DET

You thought they looked dominating? Boston can't buy a bucket right now.

Yes.

I hate it when role players try to do some fancy passing in big games like this...just a totally avoidable turnover that from Drummond

Who wins the series?
