It's amusing watching the Laker player reactions to some of these calls.  Some of their bench players should be getting technical fouls.

A little contact on Lebron -> two foul shots

Much more contact on Tatum -> play on

Waiting for the day he gets superstar calls

Man Theis has done a good job on all the times he switched onto Lebron.

Now imagine if that was Drummond.

What a BEAST Tatum is becoming. And this team just battles. No Kemba and only down 2 at halftime

Admittedly that was a bad call against LeBron.  A no call if anything.
Actually I don’t agree.  He put his shoulder right into the man with position.  I’ll be happy when LeBron bullying is behind us in this league.

Lol at Mike Breen saying “Lakers are distracted by the officiating”...why would they it’s been in their favor all game!!

The amount of excuses the media makes for the Lakers is pathetic

In his defense, I think he just meant they were complaining a lot.

Fun fact: Mike Breen is in a group chat that I'm in and definitely likes the Celtics!

He got bumped off his line hard!

Marc Davis received the torch from Joey Crawford.

Officiating has been pretty even overall.  Some bad calls going both ways, but that's normal.  That goaltending snafu is the only egregious call IMO.

Anyone hear Breen saying that we're a bad FT shooting team? I checked and we're top 6. You can really see that these national broadcast commentators have no idea what they're talking about and are just following the narrative.

Tatum’s evolution is raising this team’s ceiling to legit title contender... just wish we could get some scoring off the bench.

I think he meant to say Lakers. 

We definitely aren't a bad FT shooting team.

He said it when the Lakers were shooting so I think he meant them...

You bet I heard it, and I complained to my wife that he has no idea what he’s talking about.  What’s more, he said it with a Laker at the FT line.

Neither one of those guys is on their game at all... it isn't hard to look up stats and have them at your desk while you call the game.
Lazy.
