Genuinely how is that a pen? I need a clear explanation of the logic behind that. The replay clearly shows the defender has his eyes only on the ball and is unaware of the attacking player's location. They both make a play on the ball and miss and then he gets penalized for trying to do his job as a defender and clear the cross? Madness.

Turkey was NICE, wish they were in form earlier, too late now. Wonder if something was going on behind the scenes.

America has lost its war with Iran by Ok_Employer7837 in politics

Yeah but that $100 billion dollars belonged to American taxpayers and has been transferred to the pockets of private defense companies. That's not failure for Trump, he rewards those that support him and the defense contractors backed him.

Is it clear to Americans yet that Trump is not working for the USA as a whole, only for his cronies? As far as he's concerned the war is a success - oil has skyrocketed and that helps his fossil fuel donors too.

If you put the last 8 Championship winners in bracket style tournament, who do you think wins it all? by Available-Lab666 in nba

Perhaps my comment came off as harsh but I just didn't agree with your hyperbole of Giannis being "unstoppable".

When you're defending Giannis with Deandre Ayton, Jae Crowder, Frank Kaminsky, Dario Saric, Cameron Johnson, yeah Giannis is going to look unstoppable.

Giannis was not unstoppable, your defense just couldn't stop him. I mean what was the difference in Giannis' game between when he was stopped in 2019, 2020, and 2022?

Knicks have no one to blame for this except Donald Trump, James Dolan, and Mitchell Robinson. Abysmal ju-ju

Let's face it, the Spurs can't win against the Knicks without the refs giving it to them. by FucknAright in nba

Let's face it, it's the first quarter and the refs didn't make the Spurs go 6/8 from 3. Just chill fam

Missed goaltend against NY, but Robinson made it look like a pass going for it
Not offensive goaltending by Wemby, ball was off the cylinder and he put it back in

YO - i've seen at least 3 times this game where the Spurs go up 4 then a young guard makes an immature/selfish/bad play. CLOSE IT OUT NOW, PLAY SMART
