@bballbreakdown I’m a Detroit fan, but I think Thompson lowering his shoulder, extending his arm and being completely out of control also made this an offensive foul, even if Merrill was out of position. Helm of a game by Merrill by the way. I think this fired him up. Impressive.
@WizKayTV@UMFL2002@FantasyGuy93@ChanNBAthoughts But I DO think all we hear about is how teams are allowed more latitude and contact in the playoffs and that generally less gets called. And that has played out for everyone…except the Pistons. They’re playing the same, but refs are allowing less of it.
@WizKayTV@UMFL2002@FantasyGuy93@ChanNBAthoughts Not saying that (though his whistle changed dramatically in the playoffs, and I do think that caused him to lose some confidence and not adjust).
@BillBob932024@DetroitPistons Ummm…Cade was 11/11 from the line today…and hems at 84% for the season. Can it get better? Sure. But he’s been pretty clutch outside of that one game where he missed against Boston
