26 fouls on the bucks, 20 on the Celts. Celts flop all day and get calls but quote "CoNGRaTs ReFS"

Boston had 34 FT attempts (to 17 for the Bucks) and they still think that they got hosed by the refs!?!

Bucks have the best player in the series but Boston look light the better team. This is going to be a long series.

Giannis is the clear cut best player in the league. I don’t want to see people compare him to Durant ever again.

Tatum and Marcus Smart combined 5/26 shooting… yikes. gotta walk home after tonight. Boston had this game and those two single-handedly lost them the game.

Game 3 winners usually go on to win the series. Tough.

GeorgeSears wrote:I'm not too familiar with the rules, but wasn't that a lane violation by Smart? He crossed the line before the ball hit the rim. It hit the backboard first and Smart's momentum had already carried him past the FT line before it hit the rim.


Pretty sure it’s that’s the rules too lol, idk refs decide to blur the lines up to their discretion

Bucks deserved that game but man we deserved the opportunity to tie at the end. To say Smart isn’t shooting when he has already jumped in literally in the shooting motion. Just an all time bad call by the refs

Giannis scored 42 and Hokisay 25. Lol. Bucks going home in 5 if they lose that one. We gonna get a game 7.

You clearly haven't been in the game thread. The entire thread has been people crying about the Celtics getting calls.

Because if players were actually shooting threes like that the average 3pt efficiency in the league would be 2%.
You gotta be convincing that you're shooting in a natural motion to get a foul, not flicking it because you heard a whistle.

There was 5 seconds left in the game. He was clearly shooting.

After Jrue grabbed him.

What a game. If you're a Bucks fan and were told they're up 2-1 against the C's, without Middleton, you definitely take it.

LOL. Not a chance. He's in the upward motion as Jrue grabs his arm.
