    “Legal guarding position” = “We weren’t going to call a 4th foul before half”

    Not surprised, since it was good defense and 100% an offensive foul.

    There's going to be so many calls to blow up over.

    An actual correct call isn't the one to do it on.

    I think the slap across the arms was the real foul

    I don't think Jokic was set in any way, was moving, then hits Alpi on the head, shoulders, idk but there was definitely a swipe down that made contact.

    Alpi definitely was trying to get revenge for getting scored on though, he always does that, is annoying sometimes, he wasn't passing that ball to anyone on that play.

    Come on my guy, it's ok to acknowledge Jokic played good defense there and it was the correct call.

    We need to stop passing it to adam for his floater. Only if he has an open dunk.

    And amen really needs to make 3s to unlock our offense.

    There was a CHANCE he'd get foul 4.... I'd roll on that.

    Honestly been the most disappointing thing for me this season.

    Part of it is coaching induced - I mean he isn't even allowed to be the terror on defense he was last season. That's straight up criminal from Ime.

    But I his shooting is just so god damn disgusting I can't believe there's been no progression, almost looks like regression from last year.

    Is it just bias glasses on?

    Or are there that many posters who don't know defense, complaining about the refs upholding a correct call?

    Should Stone be thinking about trading Amen before the rest of the league works out that he's a horrible offensive player? He gets talked about as an elite two way player but only plays well on one side, and he hasn't even been close to his previous impacts this year. Time to cash out?

    u know who’s shooting touch I’m worried about? Jabari. He’s shooting the same efficiency had his 2nd yr. This is his 4th season. It’s not good enough. I’m starting to think he’s never gonna be a 39/40% shooter. His touch has always been poor. I’m starting to really doubt Bari’s ceiling.
