  That call on Giannis's under the basket attempt where he hit the fucking back board was so lame but extremely hard to call from the refs perspective.

  Manu created all contact with his extending arm...gets call then hits shooter in head from behind, gets call again.

  How terrible are his defensive ratings even though he’s 2nd in steals?

  Right as I switched I see a blatant travel not called and instead he gets the foul call.

  Andre Drummond should be in the most improved player of the year discussion just because he's improved his free throw percentage from 38% last year to 64% (so far) this year.

  I read it he's bending his knees more this yr which is leading to the improvement. Huge improvement as he can now play in the 4th.
