Why on earth has it taken us nearly 3 qtrs to FINALLY bring on Nurkic?

He's still struggling with injury, purely a management thing.

Harden with nearly twie as many FTs as Denvers whole team...

Gonna be epic playoffs when he doesn't get this bulls*** calls all game

harden is a fantastic offensive player. that there can be no doubt. i see he's had 23 fts. without seeing any of the fouls, from your POV how many of them were fouls?

Well done Beard on 50.

I see someone else complaining about the free throws. I'm guessing didn't even watch game or like the others can't tell you which ones weren't fouls and why.

 

[DT_35]

25 FT attempts in one game by ONE player is bloody ridiculous man..

Not saying it cost Denver the game or anything but it was definitely a little one sided with the calls. A +10 foul disparity is rather unusual in the NBA. Harden is a great player but certainly aided by calls, much like the other superstars in the league. Simply put, they will get calls that regular players do not.

I look forward to him only attempting <10 FTs a game in the playoffs

No simply because it's too drawn out.

The smaller nations should be having a tournament for two spots in the main draw. The two QF's this far have been blowouts.

So which ones weren't fouls?

Gerald Green just made an alley oop PASS.

Weren't fouls at all or aren't fouls for 98% of the players in the league?

Score update?

 

[Look2Me4Guidance]

This Suns crowd needs a rocket. No, not a Houston varietal.

Archie Goodwin makes two great plays and checks out and hardly a clap.

 

[Look2Me4Guidance]

Evans down for the Pels. Looks like his ankle, again

2Q - 6:18. Really? Piss weak
3Q - 6:33. Chandler gets a lot of ball and a tiny bit of hand. No call almost the whole league
3Q - 1:01. Charge every single day of the week. Nelson moving backwards and no where else, Harden runs straight through him.

CBF looking at the last quarter

The 76ers playoff hopes are still alive, don't care what anyone says.

Fair play I'll look later.

Not sure charges are valid. Almost certain NBA refs don't know how to call any given some I've seen this season.

Which is why Harden is a non-factor in playoff games. Doesn't get the soft calls, and his game is based around getting to the line from soft calls.
