Game 6: Close it out -- Thunder @ Jazz 4/27/2018 8:30 pm MST

Wait, no, disregard. Here's a better one. Just picture Joe saying "Toasty!"

Definitely a foul. And i bet it dominates media discussion. But it is what it is. Refs get things wrong.

Ya it’s a foul by nba standards but it’s something that needs to change. Offensive player should never be able to pump fake and then jump into the defender who is trying to avoid contact and get rewarded for that ****. The pump fake was invented so you get the defender in the air and then you get an easier shot..... no hope for a call.

And again, in today’s nba that should have been called a foul but in the game of basketball and the way it’s meant to be played that’s not a foul. No way that **** gets called in any pick up game I have ever played in.

Reckon AB knew it was fish's b'day and put a shift in for him tonight. Restraining orders be damned!!!

I was actually pouring myself glass after glass of wine in the 4th quarter, something I have never done before.

 

[str8line]

I must have missed Westbrick shuttin that **** down.

 

[Jazz and Utes]

Who cares what the narrative is? We play in Houston Sunday and OKC is spending the off-season thinking they have a chance at keeping PG.

 

[fishonjazz]

He'd have missed anyway. But I love that they didn't fall for it. He jumped sideways with an unnatural release. I hate when they call it and trying to get the ref to bail you out instead of getting a shot off is a pansy move.

Yep

 

[Spinoza]

Hilarious! They’ve been calling BS calls all night. Pulling stuff out of their asses. Then they miss the most obvious one. Gobert clearly fouled George

No he didn't. You're not supposed to jump into the defender in order to draw contact.

Can you show me where in the rule book this is listed? Like official NBA website. I couldn't find it.

Never mind found a link.

Would be a no call or offensive foul. So good call.

This rule shows that the call on the floor was correct. Gobert legally landed and then George jumped into him.

 

[fishonjazz]

Thanks for posting that. I was wondering what happened

 

[LoPo]

? Just because a defender jumps in the air doesn't mean a player has to launch into him. PG already tried that garbage and got a call minutes earlier.

I would be pissed as an OKC fan, but I also understand that the refs let them play.
