If it was anything he traveled.

Nope

good thread by Haberstroh on why the refs decided 3.0 was the right time- that and Jimmy should probably only have gotten 2 FT's- not 3.

This one will hurt more than last year which in the grand scheme of things doesn't make sense because they were the 8th seed while last year they had the 1 seed with a game 7 at home

Watch the series finale of succession shortly after 9 then take a sleeping pill shortly after. Need be May 29th already

Sure but it's understandable if they get your hopes up going 3-0 then become the first not to close it out...

First time all playoffs Jimmy did not have a ig story post after a game. Usually there is something. That game last night hit him differently.

Need a performance that he delivered game 6 in boston last year

I haven't seen so much crying since JFK was assassinated.

Because of the 3-0 angle I cannot think of any loss by one of my teams like this one. Only one that might come close (and maybe worse if you are like me and like football a lot more than bball) is The Drive loss. Similar in that Browns took the lead then looked to have it won when we pinned them on the 2.

Guess the one consolation is you at least still have a shot.

L2M is out. What everyone debated was called correctly. They did miss a lane violation on Caleb Martin and then a foul committed by Gabe Vincent.

Comment:

Replay review of the foul called on Horford (BOS) pursuant to a coach's challenge was deemed unsuccessful. Horford (BOS) made contact with Butler (MIA) during his shooting motion and a foul was warranted. During the review, the Replay Center Official also determined that i) the foul occurred at 3.0 seconds and adjusted the clock accordingly; and ii) Butler's shot attempt was taken from behind the three-point line, and therefore three free throws were awarded.

Here’s the error in this report. If they say the foul is in the shooting motion and not on the hip while Butler is still handling there’s not 3.0 seconds left. If that’s the foul as they state here, consistent with them awarding 3 foul shots, the time left should have been 2.7/2.8 seconds.

You know we're talking about Wiggy....right?

Oh, he will 100% for sure be gloating.

And I will laugh at him when he does.

It absolutely was not a goal tend. The goal tend was only called because his hand was on the rim. Seems like a double penalty.

Ummm…

If the defender’s hand is on the rim?

Then it is 100% a goal tend.

Defender can’t touch the rim or the backboard while the shot is in the air.

 

[tlance]

The guy has both hands on the ball and gets an extra 2-3 steps out of mishandling it. The ref can make a call on that if he wants. Can also let it go. Gets a step after putting both hands on ball, then drops it then another 1-2 after dropping it.

But not gonna keep this going on this thread...if you think I'm wrong that's cool.

That is not a double dribble.

I get it, but someone was saying without the hand on the rim it was still a goal tend. Not true.
