Quotes from Grizzlies' forums after Game 2-"Rudy Gobert just went Old Testament Book of Mormon on Jonas AND Jaren"

OMG... that was definitely a charge. Even if Mike was moving a little Brooks came high and led with the elbows.
I re watched the replay in slow motion.. definitely not established position, still moving and leaning to the right and should have been 2+1. Agree to disagree.
 
ok even if you add that I could list at least twice as many bad calls against Memphis. We got homecooking last game, no way to twist around it. Even Shaq said that during half time.... same as Perkins on Twitter.
LOL You just buried your case. Shaq and Perk agree with you? haha, sorry but you have lost the argument.

Utah got a more favorable whistle than in game 1. But overall I feel like the officiating of this series in general hasn't been great for both teams.
 
That one where he threw a tantrum about no call and should have gotten technical?



Or the one where JV got technical, for barely touching him with off hand after the shot when Rudy flopped all the way out of the key?

That was clearly an offensive foul on JV, so ok.

Its a hard job so all I ask for is consistency. Last night they called a lot of soft fouls... but I thought they were at least even and somewhat consistent. It's not an ideal way to call a game and Kane Fitzgerald generally finds a way to make things weird. I will take last night's crew over Game 1s crew. Touch fouls on Mike on one end and on the other end Brooks was doing his thing and walked out with 2 fouls.

That's fine I guess but Mike took it in the chest and Brooks never really left the floor so Mike was in legal guarding position. He also led with some high elbows so even if no charge you can't really do that. If it was the wrong call it was borderline at best. The Ja Morant foul on the Rudy block was so much more egregious its not funny.

I think it was a charge or no call. Conley was out of the restricted area and I will grant you he moved very slightly but he was in position and brooks was out of control.

Do you know if the same refs travel to Memphis for the next game?

Jazz definitely were on the good size of the whistle more than Memphis, IMO, but that's to be expected. Utah finally got a bit of home playoff cooking from the officials. Still, I expect Memphis to get a bit back Saturday...and I don't think the calls were egregious in favor of Utah. They were just egregiously bad all around.

Ingles and Bog are perfect for Utah. They look like Mormons that only practice 3s
What?? Something like.. "They look like Mormon dads that you overlooked as slow old white guys that ultimately destroyed your team at the Wednesday night churchball game." would have been more creative.
