Can’t believe they foul CP3 out of a playoff game on that. Had zero impact on Brunson rebound or shot.

Yep but it goes back to a veteran being smarter.

Yep.

 

[Shanemansj13]

Now Dallas can’t make anything

Yeah, I agree.

Also speaks to why basketball is so hard to officiate.

There is some contact on almost every play. Up to official judgement whether to call it or not.

It was so bad that i dont Brunson or kidd would have said a word if they didn't call that

Grabbing his arm didn’t have an impact? I disagree, hard to jump while a a player grabs your arm whether it is a big player or not. Every foul should be treated the same, so is it a foul or not. CP3 has made a handful of bonehead plays in this game and this is another one, luckily PHX is still very much in the game

True but pretty easy call when a player grabs a players’ arm while they are trying to jump. Whether it was a light grab or not, why are you grabbing his arm? Bonehead

2 of his final 3 fouls could have been no calls

Looks like Dallas is playing better in the 4th!

Phoenix better not let this go 7. I can imagine Luka going nuts in a game 7

Already having flashbacks to 1993. First round went the max, 2nd round went six, 3rd round went all seven. There was nothing left in the tank when the Bulls came to town.

Absurd to even say that when the hand is on there for a split second, doesn’t impede Brunson’s movement and he gets the rebound anyway?!?!?

It’s a horrible call in a playoff game regardless of time and situation. It’s Corky Thatcher level retarded when it’s a key player’s 6th foul with like 9 to go in the 4th quarter. It is what is.

 

[bksballer89]

Best of 3 where Luka can go absolutely off in one of the next 3 at least.

Feels like 7

Kind of crazy how these things always tend to extend series. Oh well, nothing to see here.
(Checks watch, sees Scott Foster coming at 8pm and is suddenly glad his team is the one down 2-1)

Kidd showing how great of a coach he is so far in this series

So even though it was a foul it can’t be called for your 6th foul. Got it

He is playing really well....

To be fair refs isn't why Mavs won. They were better from start to finish. Even though I didn't agree with 2 of the final 3 fouls on CP, he should have been smart enough to avoid his 4th and 5th fouls. Those are 2 fouls easy to avoid if you just play cautious
