Also ishbia should get a line on the box score for his efforts. Sarver would have called him an obscure slur or something

If this series suffers because of people who can afford seats like that (basically fuckin demons) then I'm gonna be pissed

Owners initiating contact, then flopping to get the opposing team's best player suspended is the new market inefficiency. If Jokic does get suspended then the Suns win the championship, it would be the first time ever the team owner actually deserves to hold the trophy first, though.

If Jokic gets suspended I’m gonna be real fuckin close to not watching the rest of these wonderful playoffs.

I don't care about Jokic or the Nuggets, but a tech even seems like too much for whatever the gently caress this was. https://twitter.com/BackcourtAlerts/status/1655376814158610434

Reminder that the first thing Ishbia wanted to do as owner of the Suns was hire Isiah Thomas

You mean the Isiah Thomas who has a very good friend who is in charge of the NBA disciplinary process? Uh-oh.

Why was Jokic trying to wrestle the ball from the crowd? That seems like it's someone else's job.

Jokic wanted to inbound quick to start a fast break opportunity

there is literally 0 chance that anyone else in those seats grabbing the ball like that and holding it doesn't result in them getting ejected

# ? May 8, 2023 06:24 |

more specifically hes trying to inbound the ball while that sun is layed out in the crowd and the suns crowd is trying to stop him from gaining that advantage which is uh. not what crowds are there for

Doesn't the ref have to spot the ball on inbounds or have to whistle the play to start or something

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a fan intentionally holding onto the ball to give their team a strategic advantage. Let alone it actually working and getting a T against the other team Absolutely insane Also Jokic and Book are having all-time crazy statlines

pentyne posted:there is literally 0 chance that anyone else in those seats grabbing the ball like that and holding it doesn't result in them getting ejected I'll give a charitable interpretation but he didn't grab the ball, it appears to literally have bounced to him when Okogie went after it out of bounds: https://twitter.com/TheHoopCentral/status/1655376930152251392 He should have thrown it to the ref, but he also appeared to be checking on Okogie. He should have just handed it to Jokic though when Jokic came for it.

I feel like because it’s Jokic people are seeing in this what they want to see and not what actually happened. As that angle shows Okogie goes flying into the seats next to Ishbia and the ball ends up in his arms. He turns and stands up to check on/help Okogie up and Jokic almost immediately runs over, wrests the ball away from him, and then forearms him. Ishbia isn’t even looking at Jokic or aware he’s coming until he’s on top of him. It’s like 4-5 seconds from the time Okogie smacks into the seats to the time Jokic is grabbing at Ishbia, and he had to come running from the court to do it. I don’t think he should be out for game 5 but this was MPJ or Torrey Craig shoving some random fan they would have been ejected and probably suspended a game. E: Also for those saying Jokic was trying to get the ball to quickly inbound, the nearest ref to hand it off to was all the way over under the hoop Porfiriato fucked around with this message at 07:32 on May 8, 2023 |

kinda silly to argue about a light shove when another player just barrelled into the whole front row at full speed lmao

okogie should be suspended for making contact with multiple fans in the stands, which is NOT okay. people are just seeing what they want to see because

lmao. jokic at the arc trying to get the ball to a wide open ref under the basket just fully dumbfounded, unable to figure out how to get it there. if only he had any sort of skills to figure out this loving conundrum, any training or past experience. its impossible. theres no way to get the ball from where he is to another spot on the court. its over.

To reiterate I don’t think he will (or should) be suspended but it will be interesting to see how much lingering PTSD from the malice at the palace there is in the league office about fan-player altercations. I suspect some stern noises and a fine is as far as Silver wants to go.

Plus, he does put his hand on Jokic before selling the contact. The fact that he's an owner makes any appearance of interference worse, he should be the one fined imo.

If Anthony Edwards brutally assaulted a security guard with a chair to the back then what Jokic did was a forearm shiver to a innocent mans throat that was clearly trying to crush his windpipe. Or rather, neither thing is a big deal and we should just move on.

Jokic should be fined because he had an opportunity to do some real damage to a billionaire and just lightly shoved him.
