Man the refs were pretty bad in that OKC-HOUSTON game with pretty much every screw up I witnessed benefitting OKC. Refs let Shai push off as much as he wanted and once when he pushed Brooks off and then stumbled and lost the ball they called a foul on Brooks. There were also a lot of phantom calls given to Shai. I also saw them call an obvious OKC out of bounds on the Rockets even though the ref was standing right there and they whistled Sengun for a foul even though he clearly went up vertically which the commentator agreed after they showed it on slow mo reply. This is one reason I can't consistently watch this sport. There just starts to look like so much evidence (real or imagined) that the refs are attempting to sway the games. I'm saying all this while OKC is pretty much my team.
I dont really follow what youre saying. But, Sounds to me like you're putting way too much subjectivity into the referees hands
OKC didn't deserve to win that cup. Even when they were playing against Dallas I thought they were employing a stupid strategy and shooting way too many threes. It caught up to them against the Bucks where they shot themselves right out of that game dying by the three. In other opinionated takes: I don't get this crazy thing where supposedly a few teams want to trade for Jimmy Butler. The rumored leading candidates being Houston and G-State. My question is why anyone would want an injury prone guy like Butler? These days he's about as reliable to be playoff ready as Imbed or Kawaii. Anyone who gives up assets just to have Jimmy sitting in a suit on their bench during the playoffs is a damn idiot.
I just saw on a video that fans can't even watch their home teams on tv because of blackouts and that's even if you have league pass. I use a site that you can download pretty much every NBA game for free and in perfect quality and other sports as well (not boxing or mma). It obviously won't be live but in my opinion it's always better to not watch sports live as long as you can keep away from finding out the result. So if anyone wants that site just let me know.
The Dallas Mavericks are bracing for star Luka Doncic to miss an extended period of time after sustaining a calf strain, sources tell me and @espn_macmahon. Doncic left the arena on crutches today in Dallas. He is expected to undergo an MRI on Thursday.
Michael Malone just ripped the Sacramento Kings for firing Mike Brown today, says they called Brown while he was in his car on the way to the airport instead of firing him in-person at Sacramento’s practice. “No class. No balls.”
There are rumors the firing call came from D'Aaron Fox's new agent team of clutch sports. Whether Fox wanted Brown fired or it was strictly the agent's decision is unclear but while talking to the media a couple days ago, Brown did hold Fox accountable or throw him under the bus depending on your point of view and that could be the reason for the bad blood.
D'Aaron Fox is Good, But He AIN'T "NBA Coach Killer" Good... Mike Brown "Clashed" a Bit w/LeBron too, in Cleveland, Yet a Certified Hard Head Like Stephen Jackson Loooooves & Vouches for Mike Brown...REED Gets It, Sacramento was STRUGGLING, But it was Waaaaaaaaaaay Tooooo EARLY to Tap Out on Brown, Given the Recent Success He Brought to the Squad... REED
They just extended brown in July for 2 more years. Dumbfucks Now supposedly fox may force his way out to a real organization
I can't remember such a bizarre trade was when Dominique Wilkins got traded for Danny Manning when the Hawks had the best record in the East
“I believe that defense wins championships,” Mavs GM Nico Harrison told ESPN regarding his motivation to trade Luka Doncic for Anthony Davis. “I believe that getting an All-Defensive center and an All-NBA player with a defensive mindset gives us a better chance. We’re built to win now and in the future.”
The Mavs had major concerns about moving forward with Luka Doncic due to his constant conditioning issues and the looming commitment of another supermax contract extension this summer, sources told ESPN.
There are major financial implications for Luka Doncic with this trade. He was in line to receive a five-year $345M contract this summer. Doncic is no longer super max eligible.
Valid Concerns, But Jumping into a Loooooooongterm Commitment w/a Player 6 YEARS Older Than Luka AIN'T the Solution...Luka for STREET CLOTHES???...The Lakers Probably Thought They Were Being PRANKED @ !st... Fuuuuuuck NO!!!...Worst Trade Uv Are Tymes... REED
Reed i think you're underestimating the value of max christie The mavs traded doncic before the pelicans gave up on williamson
