he I just don't think he has his legs under him. It's like they turned to stone Always the legs huh it's a broken record Cole. Inside the NBA Bubble, Jayson Tatum Is Playing a Lot of...Golf Golf Carts have wheels and Tatum has no Grit. He'll never be the go to guy. He's not a smart ballplayer. Gotta disagree...I think Tatum has it...he was exceptional after the all-star break...catapulted to next-level...he will get back there...he probably thought this bubble thing was never going to happen...and honestly if I was him I would have seriously considered opting out...he is making peanuts and is looking at a big contract coming up...probably Jaylen convinced him to play because the league/players union needs this to get some of the TV money, blah blah blah....

Kobe is supposed to be Tatum's hero. Kobe always came to play, Tatum looked like he was sleep walkin! I just don't think he has his legs under him. It's like they turned to stone I agree, Stevens shares some of the blame for not playing the starters more in the scrimmages!

Does that look like his hand is in the groin? And he doofus ref is looking right at it Agree, but I think Cole has a point in that the whistle was called because Theis was hurt...they did not blow the whistle to call a foul...they were unsure what went on, then could not retroactively call a foul...something like that...is that what you were saying Cole?...
bad reffing no matter what...I hate that Giannis is the new annointed one...pisses me off...couldnt wait for LeQueen to retire, or go west, now here we are again too young to get respect, no superstars to get the calls...NBA sucks...would not watch it except that the Celts are contending...it is like torture by a thousand cuts...

Yes that's exactly what I'm saying. The refs missed the call on the floor at the time it happened, but after that their hands were tied unless they were going to determine it was intentional
The ref was actually on the other side of theis body I think
Perhaps they need to make an exception for incidental groin shots much like incidental elbows

You can see a man driving through another man from the other side. This is a foul, right?

Funny they didn't even quote the rules right when they were talking about it. The actual rule is you have to be in place before the offensive player leaves the ground. At least that's the way I learned it
That's right and you have to slow the replay down to "ultra slo-mo" to see if Marcus's feet were set before Giannis left the floor.
It would have been an automatic charge had that been Gordo or Tatum but it was Giannis with 5 fouls.

Sooooo, Marcus should have just "Walked Away?"
if you don't want to go to youtube there's this one as well ...

Here we go again. Same mistakes as the past few years. Yea a few bad calls against us.Kemba took a few charges that were not called and that smart play. BUT, this team or coach has a tendency to go for complencency rather than trying to become the best. We keep running plays through the wrong guys and our main unit refuses to move the ball. Too many guys wanting to show. I will keep saying Gordon is our best player period but either brad or tatum himself wants to carry the torch. Point here is we cant depend on last minute calls. We need to get better on getting the other teams best player out of his game from the get go. Why Time Lord wasnt in is beyond me. We have tacko,put fkng tako down there where every team does at will against us. I see our team and its amazing on paper. I look at them playing together and it makes me wanna cry. Run offense through Hayward. Fk tatum, fk kemba, fk JB, fk smart. Run it through Hayward. Best passer, best shooter of our team.

Right...which is why it is so difficult to watch the NBA...if you are LeBron or Giannis you can do whatever you want...did you see the Giannis prick celebrate after a dunk shortly after he should have been fouled out?...he has a lot of audacity...no humility...McHale would have clothes lined Giannis on the next drive up the middle...

Also, as much as I love Smart he needs to accept his role. Ddfensive/the one that goes for the 50/50 but as long as he keeps pretending to be an offensive threat, he is going to hurt this team more than help them. But a coach that avoids conflict by not holding anyone accountable for not accepting their roles, will always struggle. And thats brad.

As much as I've watched this over and over using my cursor to move the action from the paused position, I see Marcus planting his right foot just as Giannis' left toe leaves the floor. With a high speed slo-mo shot on a big screen you can probably decipher that Giannis' toe left the floor thousands of a second before Marcus stopped moving that foot but that's not overwhelming or definitive evidence in which case the call on the court should stand, and that was a "charge."
That's my conclusion, but of course, I am biased.

Just thinking with no crowd to hold officials accountable they could try almost anything. I don't think they've got any boo tracks queued up

Smart was 7 for 11 shooting 3 of 6 three pointers! we needed his offense this game!

Smart fined $15,000 for speaking the truth about the referees...wondering if Jaylen gets fined for his instagram picture...
Brown needs to D up better against Giannis...wish we had Baynes still to battle inside...
