    If Dame rotated over, was set and outside the arc, we would want that call.

    Yep. This is seriously unbalanced refereeing no doubt. Such an NBA thing to do. Sway calls to the popular team. It’s been this way forever. Gets WAY worse when they’re also trying to promote an individual player (Ball)

    If the Organization really cares about winning, I think it's time we really consider moving on from Stotts.

    Does anybody really think a Stott's led team will ever be better than about what it is now?

    Biggie really struggles to finish in traffic. He wasn't close to getting that shot off. He's going to have to learn to get his shot of like Z-Bo.

    How much of this is refs controlling the game

    How much of this is Stotts coaching

    How much of this is just uninspired play

    Pretty awesome that they can make a sub-par team look like golden state.

    Swanigan needs to learn to just go up. He pump fakes every time in the pain.

    3 attempts by Biggie and he has yet to even get the ball out of his hands. Finally gets a trip to the FT line but this is one of the reasons he fell. Meanwhile Kuzma....
