if the ball is in the air when the shot clock expires, the defending team should be able to grab it and go - reward good defense

yeah been arguing that for a while

I just realized that I have no clue who the coach of the Lakers is

fucking comical no-call on bron on that murray drive

these calls remind me of kobes last game

LeBron always gets favorable calls against likeable teams

yeah been arguing that for a while

it would improve the flow of the game, thered be more fast breaks, the league should be all over it

I'm not the guy to harp on or care about the NBA's supposed ratings dilemma, but the Lakers of all teams having the nerve to file a bogus report to the league office over officiating (after Dwight spent all last game hacking opponents and then almost getting tossed for abusive language at a ref no less) and getting shamelessly rewarded for it like this is in a critical playoff game is why viewership is down. Hard if not impossible to be seriously invested in these playoffs unless you're Snoop Dogg or one of the bandwagon of 14 year old Laker fans on social media when stuff like this happens.

This is the worst fucking outcome, the lakers marching through the playoffs via officiating

it’s extremely lame

this game is going to be an officiating controversy? really?

Glad to pop in here and see I'm not the only one who was livid about the crunch time officiating there.

i’m in an airbnb in maine with no tv and uh maybe that’s for the best.

celtics are continuing to play how they have played

they r ready to leave the bubble

Sad

Oh the fix is in! That wasn’t a foul by Kimba

i lied they want to stay in the bubble now

at halftime marcus told them life is a bubble

20-3 run baby

why is halsem still a player

the heat should try giving jayson tatum more wide open threes, wonderful defensive strategy

iggy has been truly awful in this series

he even looks cooked lol

celtics finally getting some looks closer to the rim

very, um, intrigued... by spo’s decision in the last 2 games to let jayson tatum score 70 points without putting bam on him once

i think he likes to keep bam near the basket

did someone strangle spo at halftime? why am i seeing igoudala taking three pointers

whos minutes is iggy taking the last couple games kelly o

robinson, olynyk, robinson, derrick jones jr......

the reffing in this game has been out of control, how do both starting point guards have 5 fouls. just swallow the whistles sheesh

kembas had so many charges he usually draws called blocks this series

utterly ridiculous call man h8 da refs

i need to see more three shot fouls. please keep blowing the whistle

theis is sad review the play flagrant 5

every ref in this game needs to be suspended lmao

6 on dragic, 5 on bam, 4 on butler, 5 on kemba, 4 on marcus smart... ok that one i’m fine with but who wants to see this

refs are the stars of the game

refs are psycho control freaks who need to be kept in check by fans telling them they suck

there's no real accountability no one can stop them

anyway celtics really did look like they were ready to exit the bubble at the beginning of the game kudos to them for digging deep and so forth

it seems like the heat thought that too lol

yeaah

Jayson Tatum joins Kareem as the only players under 23 in NBA history to have multiple 30 point, 10 rebound, 5 assist games in a playoff series, per @Sportradar.

Bird, Jeff Ruland, Barkley, MJ, Kobe, LeBron, Durant, Giannis, Jokic only others to do it even before 27th bday.

exceptionally weird game with some of the worst officiating i've yet seen in the bubble, which is saying something.
i wonder what the players said in the locker room at the half? third quarter was some real domination shit.

At halftime the Celtics all agreed it was getting on time to take the ball away from the Heat and put it in the hoop at their end.

The Celtics are back in this series, folks

kemba gave a stirring halftime speech

Jaylen Brown on what happened at halftime: "Kemba just said we needed to settle down."
