What worries me about a Knicks series, besides the officiating bias, is also the rebounding. Hart and these guys are just relentless on the court and hunt the ball on both ends. Last thing we need is for them to get extra possessions while we keep going one and done. And honestly even Porzingis doesn't help much there, he isn't an "elite" rebounder as is.

Need more than 6 points from Haliburton.   He is an all-star, he needs to make a play at the end of the game, either set someone up, or find a way to get a score.

Towns is incredible. Not just the shooting but being able to put the ball on the floor and drive and finish acrobatically.

At his size ... amazing.

People talk about how improved Ant was, but nobody is talking Naz Reid

Wait, was Malone thrown out or did he not even get T’ed up there? No way that’s not at least a single technical. He was basically kissing Marc Davis!

  • GOT IT!!!
Denver are getting beat up and Jokic doesn't appear to be taking it well. He's starting to pout and Jamal Murray is looking like a nobody in this series. Minnesota got this otherwise.

Apparently not. I was just so confused that they didn't call anything there given how extreme that got. They will literally face to face yelling at each other! There's no way that's not at least a technical foul.

This is what's frustrating about the league officiating. Whether it's coaches or players, the refs clearly have different standards for what is and is not a foul, technical foul, etc. Ridiculous lack of consistency.

EDIT: It's particularly frustrating after Ant got the technical last game for a very, very light staredown.
