    I can’t wait to see the 2 minute report or whatever they call it where the refs go back and review any missed calls- I guarantee you that there will be “several” missed calls against Denver.

    but it was the whole game, not just the end. Like i don't think i would help the rockets THIS much if i could ref the games because i'd be afraid it would be too obvious

    For someone that keeps calling Jokic the greatest offensive player of all time not surprising to see such a stupid ****ing take. Miami shot like 2-6 FTs all oast game. This was officiated really well, Miami outbustled and 2nd chance/ 3s

    but yea let’s continue the culture of biching

    KCP had a rough night but if I was a coach I would be much more upset with MPJ. He just disappeared when he wasn't getting wide open 3s anymore.

    KCP just made dumb mistakes and sometimes guys are just trying to do too much.

    It's a series for sure now. If the Heat can hold home court they can win it.

    Heat's first win in Denver in seven years? What a timing.

    Officiating sucked on both sides. Are you ignoring the countless offensive fouls never called on Joker. He literally spins pushes people over no call.

    He makes them worst defensively and hasn't played in weeks. I thinks a bad move.

    I had Jokic in fantasy so watched a fair few Denver games.

    The two dumbest players in the entire league are:

    - Kevin Porter Jr
    - Michael Porter Jr

    I would be pulling my hair out if I was a Denver fan invested in watching MPJ - he'll do one good thing then follow it up with an immediate 5 terrible things.

    His defensive IQ, his shot selection. Just absolute utter killers.

    I hate every single time he gets the ball.

    I wonder if they no call him sometimes because one of his go to moves is often an offensive foul. It's like trying to ref a Giannis or Shaq game. Jokic hooks his defender or stiff arms them every time he spins. To be fair to him, lots of players do it as well. Duncan used to get away with that. But, I haven't seen someone do it as often as Jokic.

    But, If they called the game straight, both teams would foul out and there would be constant travel violations. It's a part of the game. You gotta adjust to the refs.
