I definitely wouldn't "blame the refs," I think Golden State is the better team, they've been hitting their shots, Tatum is having another bad game, and Boston just doesn't have a floor general. That doesn't change the fact that the calls were blatantly wrong and favored Golden State in Q1.
tbf, the whistle also favored the C in game 1 when they were down. I feel the refs just tries to keep the game close either way.
payton literally lost his balance in midair on his own. even with all the ref help, warriors only up 1. celtics might still come out on top this game but idk with how it's being reffed. definitely feels like a passing of the guard of some type
whistles didn’t favor the Celtics. I think them making 7 straight 3’s in the 4th was a bigger reason y
+ draymond offensive foul. it's two calls now, let's see if these will be made-up later on the other side.
it's actually dirty by white. He could've easily walked around instead up jumping over a dude. That easily feels like an insult, if you're the guy that just got bumped to the floor.
Very few probably actually notice there’s no actual pg on the floor in a nba finals game. Let that sink in and how the modern era of the league works
That's fair, I'm sure sometime down the series GSW fans will say the same about Boston.. Anyone thinking Boston was going to easily beat GSW were just wishful thinking...
Excellent game! I'm rooting for the Celtics, of course, which feels extremely weird. I don't expect the refs to do anything but lean towards the Worriers. We'll see. I have the Celtics in 7.
