The fact that the commentators were talking about reviewing that shows how soft the league has become. That was almost a clean block!

This series is proof Durant has declined. I don't even think 2012 Durant would struggle like this

Durant's efficiency tonight has been bailed out by some god awful officiating on these calls in the bonus.

Compare that to the physicality allowed on someone like Jokic or Curry and it's laughable

Refs once again taking over a game. Seriously wonder how many of these refs bet on games.

KD is not the best player in the NBA
Equanimity, peace, harmony and conscientiousness, friends
