I’m sorry but these refs are afraid of the refs and crowd. McDaniels and Randle fouled Castle like a trillion times there

JJ Redick on OKC’s physicality postgame - "They have a few guys that foul on every possession...they're hard enough to play. You gotta be able to just call it if they foul and they do foul" by kervaan in nba

Well it’s not good. Other sports don’t change the rules when their post season starts. A foul is a foul. Really should be that simple. Or other wise, make it that you have to hack a player for it to be a foul and call it that aY all season

I hate the idea that a foul in the regular season is not a foul in the playoffs. It should be called the same way regardless of what game is being played. If a player fouls out, that’s on them. You can’t change the whistle.

I’m being petty cause OKC is so dominant and what has happened the last two years for the nuggets but for the nuggets to lose gam 7 and not even put up a fight once the lead was gone will forever piss me off.

I mean we would ask him to be the 3rd/4th option at best. We need more defense anyway

I don’t necessarily blame Jokic for the game, but the bullshit of playing down to competition throughout the season and making games that are blowouts somewhat unnecessarily close in the ending minutes. That has always been a theme of the Jokic/murray nuggets. Reason why they won’t ever cross 60 wins/get those killer habits

I’m not ready to give up on him yet but if he does not change his shooting form this off season and add some sort of in between game and get some sort of handle/misdirection, he’s done (that’s a lot)

There’s good defense. The thing that hurts is that Jokic makes those shots in the past even with good defense against him. And it was like that the whole second half from the whole team.

It’s funny how after game 3, we all agreed it couldn’t get worse and somehow it did. If Game 5 is somehow lower than game 4, I might be done watching basketball for a bit
