THIS IS BULLSHIT OFFICIATING. Jesus H CHRIST!
What is smallball? I play basketball. I'm not a regular big man. I can switch from the center to the guards. The game is evolving. I'd be dominAyton if the WNBA would let me in. - Ayton

Lazy ass stupid pass by DJJ. So much for trying to go into the half with any momentum. That was just stupid.

I don't think I've seen a defensive possession this qtr which wasn't a foul or an open shot.

Weird game

Convinced coach to keep him in. What broadcast are you listening to? Nobody ever said he refused. "Booker trying to buy time. And he convinced Jay Triano." Just hit rewind on the recording. Don't create a non-existent narrative.

Warren needs to figure out how to play under control. He is taking completely avoidable hits to the head every game. For fucks sake.

Bender played great D on Porzingis, despite him having 20 pts most were against Chriss, Warren and company

Weird game
Worried too many guys in foul trouble for a comeback.

Even when we made that run we were taking tough shots

Knicks are over pressuring and we take so long to realize it.
Just penetrate pass pass or let's look for some back doors
It's not great defense we are just taking forever to react to it or just jack 3s. Do that and stop giving up lay ups and we could easily be in this.

No Kanter went straight up. Warren head butted him.

Sorry guys I’m not seeing the horrible officiating. It’s certainly not the reason we’re down 15.

Not entirely on the refs but just quite a bit of tick tac calls which make game hard to watch

Sorry sauce, but you've got to realize at some point that not everybody is going to see eye-to-eye. Your opinion and what you see doesn't come across, when I read it, as humility or room to budge. Before the end of the half, when we were getting to the line a bit more and the refs let Dragan play defense against KP, there was a lot of physicality being allowed by NY while we were getting called for everything.

Really?

You are going to ask me which broadcast I am listening to then go on to claim I am making shit up?

Ok.

Chriss hitting a three. Nice to see him make one after how off his shot was in the first half.

So I’m not allowed to disagree? Sorry bro, not following you here. I just see a lot of physical play being allowed, I’m not seeing ticky tack fouls.

Example right there. That’s just shitty defense by Chriss. Flat out lazy. He deserves two fouls for that.
