Rockets can be a little mean at zeroing in on bigs that can't defend the pick n' roll
I don't even need to watch this but I bet when they force a switch he ain't even close...
The Cavs punished Curry in the Finals and he's a much better defense than Thomas. I thought we'd see something similar this series.

Beal needs to be running off screens, get open looks to start shooting, once he starts making those he'll warm the rest of his game

If Wall can't help build a lead in the second half its over.
Celtics far too deep for them.

That was a reckless foul.
Edit: Was Crowder complaining about the foul call? He whacked him in the head with his right hand before grabbing his arm. Crowder doesn't have the hops to even attempt a chase down like that.

The worst part is the Celtics pretending like that wasn't a foul. Fuck off

He hit him in the head while airborne. That's dangerous.

Hit the head, even if it wasn't intentional, those often become flagrant 1s
It was on a follow through after he cleanly blocked the shot. Clearly incidental.

So if you punch a guy in the dick while he's in the air but then grab the ball it's clean? Boston fans classing it up this week.
Shouldn't you be praying to the lottery gods to give your team a future

Ball don't lie.
Lmao ya if they were doing that on purpose maybe they'd do it to good players

Brad Stevens is a beautiful motherfucker, it's amazing how his team keeps the offense going regardless of what happens and you always see movement, you always see guys looking for good shots. Pretty much the only guy who ever forces shots is IT and that's absolutely fine.
Compare it to the Wizards who go long stretches doing shit and throwing up prayers. I mean, they will occasionally hit absurd shit like Kelly Oubre putting up an off the dribble long 3, but come on.

That's going to be the name of Stephen A. Smith and Lavar Ball's new ESPN show
Flagrant fouls don't have to be intentional. At least I don't think so. The rules say "overly aggressive" or something to that end.
Wall got upended in midair...
Yes, but only about one of the balls.

unnecessary contact is the wording, and it often labels above the shoulder contact as that way.
Unnecessary and intentional is what gets you a flagrant 2 and an ejection, typically, especially in that same area.
It doesnt really matter. Incidental contact is just that

If this doesn't become a real thing ESPN deserves to fail.
