The NBA needs to take it's time with it's reveiw of the Wemby flagrant foul.
They must not set a precedent that prevents the refs from dictating who wins games and series in the future.
The Knicks and Spurs both shot 46% from the field and 35% from 3.
The Spurs didn't deserve to lose because the Knicks outrebounded them. The Knicks didn't deserve to lose because they had more turnovers.
The difference in a 4-point game was FTs and missed calls.
The Knicks didn’t lose last night because of the referees. That said, it’s not exactly a great look for the NBA or its product when the head of officiating appears on TV during the Finals. If there were no issues or if this were an isolated thing, McCutchen wouldn’t be on camera
@MikeHerndonSk1 You talking about the guy who pushes off after every single pic that he says.... the guy that's always pulling on jerseys. Guys are sicko
Charlamagne tha God: “Donald Trump wasn’t responsible for the loss of the game, but he was responsible for the loss of joy the Knicks fans had been feeling. Donald Trump came here yesterday and sucked the joy out of the city”
Refs let them inbound.
Knicks had a wide open 3.
Spurs had 6 on the court.
Tech on the spurs at least? Nah let's do a do-over but take away a second from the shot clock for no reason
Why the Knicks lost last night:
1. Mitch Johnson took Wemby off KAT and put him on Josh Hart
2. Wemby stayed in the paint, daring Hart to shoot 3s, letting Wemby do what he does best while saving his legs
3. Hart hit a bunch of 3s early, got on a roll in the first half. OG too.
4. But Brunson hogged the ball in the second half, instead of letting KAT play as a point center. KAT was no longer guarded by Wemby, the Spurs put 6’5 guys on him instead. That opens up lanes for KAT to score, or else feed the ball to the hot hands like Hart and OG. That’s checkmate.
Refs didn’t help. But the main problem was the Knicks didn’t adjust to what the Spurs were doing.
Had nothing to do with me or any of the Knicks fans watching in the MSG, at home or elsewhere.
Social media and clout chasing is an addiction. Attention whoring is at an all time high but let's not conflate the actions of criminals with those of die hard fans.
To say Wemby mushed Jalen Brunson over a handful of jersey while ignoring the fact that the Spurs have been grabbing, tugging, & holding Brunson’s jersey all series long, is Homer goggles with Meta Vision installed.
I don’t turn into Steven Spielberg & cut together a compilation video for every time it happens because if you’re that drunk on the Homer Kool-Aid there’s no reaching you anyway.
