Does Trae Young get more BS calls than Mitchell? I didn't watch the game which is why I'm asking

well trae young gets a lot of calls because he knows how to get the contact also hes weak af so any contact will look like hes been rag dolled.

He's been good, but no. He gets whistles that others don't, but the most important thing is that he has loads of talent around him. Loads

He gets questionable calls for sure, so does many all time greats. He is smooth with it.

He has a good squad which is necessity to make the playoffs, lol. But no one had them in Conference Finals and the biggest reason is because he has been the best player.

This post aged well.
Thier field goal percentage came back to around thier average.
Thier free throw percentage came down though still pretty well above thier average.
Thier 3 point percentage came way down and was well below thier avearge.
Thier turnover went up a little though still below thier average. They are doing very good this series of not turning the ball over without cp3.

I mean the Suns also had to deal with Scott Foster too... Him and Fitzgerald completely took over the game in the 1st Q, got several Suns in foul trouble, and then completely took it over in the last 90 seconds, where they literally stole a 6-point swing for the Clippers.

Suns are getting back CP3 who had a monster series against Denver, and he was asymptomatic from COVID.

I wouldn't be shocked at all to see the Suns end this in 4 or 5 if Kawhi doesn't come back. Clippers aren't going to be able to just play junk defense with both CP3 and Booker on the floor.

He's not an all time great. If he had to play with the contact AI or Isaih or even Steph endured, he wouldn't be that effective at all.

The NBA started getting soft a while back but this is ridiculous. First Harden antics are rewarded then this. He simply gets called differently because he's small and frail. Manipulates the refs.

The NBA is becoming a noncontact sport and it's harder and harder to watch.

This sounds a lot like gymnastics to not give credit to Trae. He gets calls, who cares. He has been the best player this postseason. I don't know how the discussion came to reffing and I am not sure it changes anything about Trae being the best.

If somebody like Lebron or Zion were called the same way Trae is... they'd average 30 free throws a game.

Lol. I spoke of three point percentage, field goal percentage, free throw percentage and turnovers. Just simple raw stats. You bring up refs.

Which means what? The percentages were going to go down, they're playing without arguably the best pure PG in the game. You claim you were right, without using any context at all.

Having CP3 out for 2 games, and having that particular ref crew (who is notorious for taking over games) is a pretty big deal.
 
NBA? How about NHL? My Golden Knights in the same spot as my Jazz were last Friday. Favored and down 3-2 playing on the road. GO KNIGHTS!!!
