    Eh, 28 feet from the basket, with a fairly innocuous sideways brush? I don't think Harden gets that call in the same situation. Though he probably woulda created more contact

    It's not supposed to be a foul if the shooter jumps into the defender, which is what George did. Gobert likely would've made contact if George went straight up and that'd be an easy call.

    Nah, I’m very objective. He’s a stat padding prick who likes to jack up shots. That’s his game. Not the first time he’s tried to play hero ball.

    Btw refs called a foul in George's favor early in the 4th in a similar situation when there wasn't even a contact, maybe they saw that and they didn't reward him in the end...

    Yes it's a foul. If you leave your feet as a defender and your body isn't straight that's a foul every single time anytime. Doesn't matter if the shooter leans into you or not. a shooter has the choice to take a shot anyway they want

    That's a foul period. Stop trying to justify it. Harden is one of the masters at this. Oh well. It happened. Nothing they can do now.

    LOL. George ain't resigning there you fool (Royce Young).
    It will be more of Westbrook + Melo for another year!

    that and all the Westbrook dickriding by the media which glorifies his obvious statpadding and always makes up excuses for him

    also, OKC fans are extremely delusional and many are just idiots, it’s nauseating

    Meh. It's not like Melo and PG were doing anything. There's a difference between ballhog / shot chucker and having to do it your damn self because everyone around you decided not to show up.

    As a Rockets fan, I will say maybe you should focus on your shitshow of a team instead of taking cheap shots at us.

    Mission Accomplished for Jazz. This is their Super Bowl, they want to beat Russell bad. They ain't got legs left for next round. Utah home games with give these Jizzers a game, or two, but they should be exiting by next weekend.
