Absolutely terrible foul call on Gabriel that was challenged. He did everything right. Just do away with replay if you are going to get the calls wrong. |

Because the Lakers free throw shooting tonight was hot garbage.
Lakers easily win this game with just average FT shooting. Not sure how so many guys were so bad at the same time.

Looks like Mr. Adam Silver really didn’t get his message across when he tried to suggest that refs would face extra consequences with the bad calls |

Even if you want to foul with 11 seconds left up by 4, you don’t foul Kyrie, and I guess we find out the hard way how a 58% FT shooter made all 3. DS took ZERO FT shots |

The NBA product is broken. It's basically like 2K with bad AI, maybe worse. The internal logic of how the game is called is laughably inconsistent. |

Oh, I missed read.
I get you, you're correct.
That's actually funny, when you think about it. |

Woke up this morning and it was still bothering me how in the world does Anthony Davis commit that fell at the end of the game sending him to the free-throw line for three free throws make him make that shot
Then turns around and Misses free throws that could’ve iced it
Definitely not what you want to see from your star player |

Woke up extremely irritated by those last three AD possessions
Honestly woke up pissed at him.
God this team is so annoying. We've dropped at least 5-6 games this season on stupidity.
AD himself has cost us at least 3-4 games. |

I apologize to Giannis,Jokic, Joel for ever comparing AD to them. They are clearly a tier above him |

I actually wasn't 100% convinced he got that shot off in time so I just spent the last several minutes hate-watching different angles on Twitter and indeed he did, the shot was definitely good.
Somebody hit some free throws. Just anybody hit some free throws. |

Things had to go terribly wrong to lose that game. A lot has yo do with coaching. I would have got all to Reaves for free throws since he just hit two. Also, would have been clear to not foul or hard contest three. Then finally at end, Davis was out of position but bad luck. I actually liked the double in kyrie. |

The default is always to blame the coaching. The Mavs needed several miracles last night to win that game and they got them all. We missed 13 FTs. That alone changes and we win. Then they needed AD, who knows not to foul a 3 pt shooter in that situation, to do just that. Then they needed a 63% FT shooter to swish all 3. Then they needed more FT misses from us. Then after defending their best guy excellently (which, of course, Ham gets no credit for) they needed a 36% 3pt shooter to hit a buzzer beater 3.
For me, I have a hard time processing all that and concluding it was coaching. _________________ 14-5-3-12 |

The Nuggets are the Clippers' kryptonite. They own them and are in their heads. Only chance Clippers have to make the finals is if someone else beats the Nuggets. |

TWolves, OKC and Jazz are 1/2 games ahead of us
1.5 (+ tiebreaker) behind Mavs

AD and Reeves are the ones that you want taking the FTs and shots during clutch time.
