Draymond Green says he thought it was crazy the NBA came out and said it was a no call at the end of the Cavs vs Pistons game 5:
“Ausar Thompson got tripped. Point blank period. Incidental or not. I hate when they say, “Oh, like, yeah, he did trip him, but it was incidental.” Hey man, sometimes I foul and I didn’t mean to. It was incidental. That’s the nature of basketball. Sometimes you may trip someone and you didn’t try to. You still tripped them. That’s a foul.”

These two clips are from the same game.
The first clip shows a normal James Harden three point shot.
The second clip shows the foul he drew on Tobias Harris.
See if you can notice any difference on what Harden does with his feet.
J.B. Bickerstaff on the free-throw disparity:
“We didn’t do enough obviously to help ourselves, and I’ll start there. But ever since we came to Cleveland the whistle has changed. … It’s interesting since Kenny made his comments publicly about us, the whistle has changed.”
One rule for today. Whether we watch College Basketball or not, we bet on every game. Out of respect for the kids. Can't have them out there playing for nothing. Be somebody.
Imagine telling back-to-back Cy Young award winner and model citizen Tarik Skubal who bleeds Detroit blue that you're planning on slandering him in court so you can pay him $19M instead of $32 million, but have no problem with paying Framber Valdez $38M a year over three years.
THESE REFS NEED TO BE INVESTIGATED.
MATT LAFLEUR CLEARLY CALLS THE TIMEOUT AFTER THE PENALTY.
BECAUSE OF THIS FAKE TIMEOUT GREEN BAY SCORED A TOUCHDOWN.
The refs just had a four-point swing on another controversial call in this game.
Insanity.
