43 Free throws ladies and gentlemen

Nba officiating is shite.

The shite they were calling on Ja was so soft and then they’d just watch our guys getting mugged at the rim and not call shite

Willie out there working the refs like awe shucks gosh golly goodness that looked like a foul but I’ll take your word for it.

Morant traveled clear as day when the Pels cut it to 2 in the final 30 seconds. So yes, I will blame the refs that reward Morant’s constant flopping. And then he wants to shite talk like he’s tough lol.

Referees literally wait till they see a reaction by a player before they call the foul. Oh you bobbed your head backwards and made a grunt? There's a foul. But smack Zion, & he didn't fall down and do a snow angel on the floor?--nothing to see here.
The most annoying is when a player tries to draw a foul,...(one of the rare cases he doesn't get it) sprawles out on the floor after he misses, and is still laying on the ground, hands in the air, while his teammates are running down the court trying to defend a fast break.
The angrier the players get for not getting a foul called depends on how bad they miss the shot. Because of embarrassment

But man….. it’s a legitimate case to say that Zion is fouled every drive. You can just can’t call soft shite on the grizzlies while watching Zion, trey get mugged.

While I agree, its also a major issue how terrible Zion's ball control is when taking contact and the exact reason why more fouls don't get called.

Its hard to call a foul on someone when you see the ball fly out of Z's hands because we see it fly out of his hand every other possession even when no one touches him yet....

The day that he can consistently keep control of the ball when going to the basket is the day that fouls will consistently be called.

I've been talking shite about his handles and lack of ball control since we drfated him and its still his biggest issue and hasn't changed a bit. Its way worse than him not having an outside shot.

And anyone who says "are you serious he losses it because he takes contact" please go look at every other drive.

Its literally Z makes layup, Z losses ball out of bounds, Z gets fouled, Z gets ball stolen in circles over and over again. At a bare minimum he has to clean up the out of bounds possessions. The only changes to that pattern is Z getting b2b fouls or made shots. But its almost immediately followed by a turnover or lost handle.

The next step is making 5-6 shots without losing the ball out of bounds or letting a PG slap it from his hand.
