ridiculous that had to be reviewed for a "reckless" closeout. then again, it is SGA...he is the CEO of the officials.
SGA lands at a 45 degree angle with his legs about 2 feet out from his center line and its a foul on the other team?
This guy is honestly one of the most unwatchable players ever. Its worse than peak Harden. At least he was exciting off the dribble and dancing around.

Dumb
How many possessions in a row to end the game ended in FT’s, 8? That’s just an unsatisfactory way to end a game imo.
[QUOTE=Proctor;15047175]Be honest, is anyone actually watching this because they think the "stakes" matter or that it's "more intense" and the players "care more"?

Guaranteed your fakkit ass watched last night. You're [i]I'm too cool to watch this game cause players don't care[/i] act isn't fooling anyone, Columbo.
Im sure you pounded a 12pk of hard ice tea watching and celebrating.
The fouling up 3 makes strategical sense but it's the dumbest fukking thing I have ever seen and totally ruined the ending of that game.
They need to rule that out somehow. Immediately.

Something we can agree on. It’s so unsatisfying as a fan.
I remember college teams used to always do it but it never happened in the NBA.

Agreed. It's basically winning via a technicality. No basketball purist can possibly say it's a good thing for the game and obviously is horrible to watch for fans.
Not a fan of either tem, but last night did not disappoint..... until that fouling sequence at the end, but I understand. If they can have more matchups like this going forward the game is in good hands. That game felt like it meant something and seeing multiple players with busted lips and red marks on them going into commercial breaks kind of confirm the competitive spirit this game had.:applause::applause::applause:
Caruso was livid after the game, but I guess he just ignores how the officials give him carte blanche on hacking big men.
