Remember Kobe hitting Pau Gasol on the first play vs Spain in the Olympics to set the toneโฆ
Carter Bryant just did the same to SGA.

These kids are different these days. Bravo ๐
This entire series has my brain in a pretzel because on one hand, a few things bring me more joy than the Lakers losing, but also this type of call/whistle is gross when it happens in the regular season let alone the playoffs
It's why the FTA argument misses the mark imo. It's not about OKC's FTs, it's about refs taking the bait on stuff like this
When Foot Locker, rappers, NFL peeps, and fans from other fanbases are all calling out OKC and the refs while defending the Lakers, that tells you just how bad the officiating was last night.
Never hated on GSW during their run. Even in real time. Only complaint was how stacked they got once KD went there. But that playstyle was beautiful and pushed the game forward
This shit OKC is doing is nasty to watch and a big reason why league viewership is crashing
No shit, Sherlock. The problem is that opposing teams arenโt allowed to be nearly as physical against yโall.
I absolutely hate how shameless these mfs are man
Why do people not do this discourse about Nikola Jokic/Jamal Murray every summer?
I haven't even seen this many conversations about duos like Paolo Banchero / Franz Wagner, who have not yet accomplished anything together.
Does Boston just generate more clicks?
