This may be the worst foul call I've ever seen.  And that is saying something.

This is the kind of stuff that turns people off from the NBA. It kind of ruined an otherwise great game between really good teams.

I really wish they could replay that because there is no way the ref views that footage and sticks with a foul call.

He did what he had to do to get out of Detroit. He hasn’t been great in Brooklyn, but he’s playing better. Was definitely dogging it for the Pistons.

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

I don't think it's the worst. I couldn't tell from the footage whether his leg hit the shooter's leg or not. If it did, that would be a foul. I think the Celtics had a worse call against them a few years ago when Smart contested Jimmy Butler's shot and got called for a foul when it looked like in replays Jimmy wasn't touched at all.

Also, I've seen Embiid throw out his arm at the refs 3 times now without repercussion. He did get tech'd up earlier, but those three times, nothing.

Thought that wasn't allowed. Seen so many players get tech'd up for that.

Not Embiid though.

Telling fans that their team really lost because of a bad call but doing nothing about it.

Embiid is getting a whole other level of service from the refs this year.

With Harden out injured and Giannis no longer the media darling because he stayed in Milwaukee, it was destined that the NBA would find someone else.

Well let's hope that in a year it two that type of focus on the next guy falls into Tatum.

Been pretty interesting watching Thybulle clamp Booker like this.  Book can't get anything against him. 

To his credit, though, he chose not to shoot his team out of the game and is instead playing facilitator/decoy.

Jayson Tatum shooting 8+ free throws a game would be a dream come true!
