BS fouls on Javale notwithstanding I thought he was playing well.

Next time Beverley is on the floor, accidentally step on his head

Crowder, Bridges and Booker are a combined 5 for 20 FG

KAT taunts Crowder all the way up the court and then gets upset at being given a technical foul. I really don't enjoy his heal turn into an oversized Pat Beverley lately.

These Timberwolves TV guys are clueless. Seems like every possession they're getting the call wrong.

Bridges traveled before the pass. That was the right call.

Doesn't excuse the bullshit the Wolves are pulling right now.

Days like this I wonder why I watch the NBA. Edward's was wrestling Booker to the floor, no call. And you get a flagrant on something like this?

Crowder should have hit Beverley a lot harder than he did.

Refs have let this game get out of hand. TWolves are like this year's Clippers, physical bordering on dirty and talk a lot of shit. Double Ts on Crowder and KAT after KAT dunked on Jae, then Finch gets T'd up. Edwards tackles Book going for an entry pass and they call Bridges on a travel as he's thowing the pass. Then Jae gets called for a flagrant going up for a 3 at the end of the half...just a trainwreck so far.

This is going exactly how I expected it would. The Wolves have been really chesty for a few weeks now and their fans are thirsty for a team that actually plays hard.

The officiating is really bad once again. Both teams are being physical but the inconsistent calls are irritating both teams and enabling more flops and foul baiting.

BS. A lot of body contact there to force the travel, or are we talking about different plays?

It could be said Edwards fouled Booker before Bridges' pass, but one official called the travel on Bridges before the second called Edwards foul on Booker.

I don't want to see the Wolves in the 1st round. Not because I don't think we can beat them, but they'll be out there trying to injure our guys.

I was just thinking the same thing. Monty and Paul would coach circles around them, but they would literally go down fighting.

I honestly don't mind losing this game. I even bet on it. :lol:

I just don't want to see someone take it too far for either team. This is game is mostly meaningless for the Suns.

I thought Bridges release the ball before his feet hit the floor. Big swing call.

One of those weird Booker games. He’s missing a lot of shots he normally makes including going 2-5 at the line.

Gives this DA the max tomorrow.
