    Actually waiting a game to retaliate would be better the ref's know and will be waiting for anything today. They are going to call everything today to prevent another scrum on the court. Let the Nougats get the brunt of the pitty pat calls take advantage and win game 4 in Portland go back to Denver go caveman on their asses and bring it back to PDX and win the show in game 6.

    Who said the Blazers should try to injure Murray? Like what, kick him in the leg? I find that hard to believe. Go at him because he's supposedly hobbled, sure. Attack him on offense, drive on his weak side, yes. But not "attack" his injury.

    Can't the Blazers send video to the league office and ask the league to review it? I thought they could. In this case, the Blazers could put together a pretty good (bad) montage of shit Jokic has pulled (pushed, yanked, elbowed, shoved, etc). The league absolutely should instruct the refs to keep an eye on Jokic. Problem is, the league seems to be enabling Jokic's bullshit.

    I wasn't one of them, but I'll chime in that if a Blazer had done so it would have been called a flagrant foul, and we'd all know it was deserved. The bigger problem here is that Jokic has committed multiple flagrant fouls, to go along with all kinds of grabbing and pulling and elbowing, but nothing gets called. When something this flagrant happens with no repercussions, it's simply beyond the pale, even for the NBA.

    Fuck that. We have nurk and turk and the storyline between the two is much more compelling that jockitchbith.
    Nba can fuck off with thier propped up stars with storylines if they cant figure out which has a better story.

    My photoshop skills aren't so great. I think a headshot of Meyers on the middle dude would be perfect....

    I would never call for one of our players to mmmbop an opposing player on their injury.

    I wish Kanter wouldn't have tweeted that Jokic shot to the NBA.

    I'm sure they have sent in video. It's common practice

    I think the NBA would have said something by now; it's a no call. No fouls, nothing, two fucking games in a row. Fuck Silver, he just cares about making WWF storylines about stars

    In today's world of wimps, the NBA would suspend the Blazers organization for a season or blackball us permanantley if they could prove we actually pulled such a stunt.

    Remember our local hero skater? and that was 20 years or so ago.

    I just think the league and everyone has seen it, and if players start their own protesting directly to the league it looks weak. The team can do it on behalf of the player or the league can review on their own.
    Im a believer that karma will offset things. And, I think its will give Jokic extra motivation.

    It's more likely that Kanter will be fined for his tweet than Jokic will be fined for his flagrant fouls.

    Welcome to the NBA
