well.....i thought the rule was always you can't jump into someone to draw a foul, but that is obviously not the case.
I do'nt understand why kicking your leg out on a shot is an offensive foul, but it's ok to jump into someone when taking a jumpshot and it's a defensive foul.

Thanks. That's all that I have been saying. Every season we made tangible improvements despite injury prone core players yet somehow we were stagnant and Monty was a bottom 3 coach. His players seem to love him like Gentry but he's known as a tough coach that holds them accountable like SVG. I'm not saying Monty is the best coach in the league but even without this year's Suns team, it is obvious to me that he was a very good coach with us and there wasn't much shown that would have led me to think he couldn't have gotten better with us. This isn't revisionist history. I've been saying it since we let him go.

THANK YOU!


Very happy to see this. Defense is hard enough in the NBA without a player being able to jump into you and get free throws.

76ers were up 26 in this game.

Now they're about to lose this game at home. Talk about a meltdown.

Dude is just plain getting old. I know that some of us wanted to keep him around another season, but jeez. Steven Adams has his faults, to be sure, but he's better than Favors.

And, to be clear, I think that Adams was better for us this season than Favors was the year before. I still think that Adams was an upgrade, and it's crazy how upgrading the center position didn't really upgrade our record.

Nice win by Bucks to force game 7.

Jrue 8-21 from the field including 1-10 from 3. I really don’t understand why he shoots and is allowed to shoot so many damn 3’s. He was a bit better at them this year in the reg season, but he’s historically terrible at them, but he’s not too bad from most other areas on the court.

So maybe the Clippers do have something that the Pelicans would want in a Lonzo S/T

Lue is a good coach in PO format...

He outcoached Snyder

I don't know why the fans dislike Lue

And he holds today's emotional players accountable without pissing them off. Oh well, at least we know that Balmer would've outbid Gayle even if Lue was our choice last year.

Very curious what Donovan’s gonna do. Jazz just lost a series to a Kawhi-less clippers squad. Jazz are also stuck with the Gobert contract.

that’s what happens when you’re a former respected player and not a fat walrus with sausage grease stains on your shirt. Players respect former player
