    Absolutely travesty. How do you let the Knicks win that game?

    Lowry hurt. Funny thing is, he should have been out, and wouldn't have got injured has he. Doesn't look bad but still.

    Philadelphia has the best excuse in the league. Blame James Harden

    Refs swallowed the whistle. Nurse was asking for a timeout before the inbounds, then Maxey gets mugged. Brutal stretch for the 76ers.

    So why is the Knicks 3 guard line up is so successful than the Dame Cj and Norm Powell? I mean Brunson is just like what, 6’0” ?

    There's 24 seconds left in the game and you're lying on the floor with the ball, on your opponents end of the court.
    Why would you not call a timeout?

    Nuggets guards shooting 2-18 (11%). Lakers up double digits at halftime

    I've rewatched it a few times and it does appear he's got both hands up in the air, ready to call timeout, but didn't (prior to the inbound). He certainly tried to call timeout after Maxey was thrown to the ground and they were on the floor, but it's not clear to me if Maxey had possession.

    the league should give head coaches a yellow bean bag. The refs got Chauncey, now they messed up in playoffs. Allow no doubt when a coach wants time. Let them toss the bag. Nail the ref right in the back.

    I think they should put a shock collar on the refs and when the coach wants a timeout, they let it rip!

    I agree with Shaq. You can’t be flopping & flailing around, crying about fouls. Especially when the game is on the line. Just get the ball and hold onto it.
