at :03 in that video he does the T. then he does it again later when maxey is on the floor


Right, he had his hands up for those 3seconds ready to make the T, but only makes the T to the baseline(vs ref closest by the sideline) at .03 and quickly retracts it as the ball is inbounded.

Edit: wide angle, slo-mo

everybody loves dumb trivia. the players who has fallen down the most times in these playoffs (play-ins not included) are maxey and brunson, 16 times each. here's an edit of brunson falling down a bunch of times.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qRqwG7E40kU

on a per minute basis, booker has fallen down the most times, 9 times in 38 minutes.

if you're wondering which team fell down the most during the whole season, and who isn't, it was dallas at 16.7 falls/48, followed closely by OKC at 16.2 and GSW at 16.1. The fewest falls was the nuggets at 8.6 falls/48, followed by boston at 9.6.

the fall kings during the regular season were lamelo at 7.3 falls/48 and rozier at 7.1

edit lol this site has "average fall duration" metric, I have to be the only person in the world looking at this stat. kevin huerter leads the league by spending an average of 5.8 seconds on the floor after a fall. brunson has spent a total of 37 minutes and 8 seconds on the floor following a fall this season.

the refs are going to miss poo poo, they overturned a foul on lowrey for no reason right before that call. the cope and whining from 6ers fans is just insane, they had multiple chances to win the game and they missed shots or got outworked for the ball just like they did in game 1.

I thought Maxey got fouled before the ball even got inbounded but fouls tend to not be called late in games, especially ones off the ball.

You can find fouls on every play if you really want to.

it's both of these things. i'm not going to sit here and say that the sixers didn't lose that game by making mistakes because they did. i'm not arguing that. but they also got hosed out of poo poo as well. like, mistakes are going to happen but it really sucks when even with the mistakes they were in a position to win without the additional piling on of ref bullshit

The worst part of the Lakers Nuggets game was only getting to listen to the last few minutes via radio and it was the nuggets broadcast who spent the entire time not saying time or score or even the action, just complaining about the refs and then with a minute left going "oh hey, the nuggets have actually taken more free throws which is amazing since they're actually playing 8 on 5"

Nothing totally earthshattering but:

• A-Rod and Lore apparently had to fight Taylor tooth and nail to get Tim Connelly hired (and gave him a form of equity)
• Taylor is screwing over his minority owners as well by selling his percentage first. He's the only one who's made any money at all off the sale so far.
• Taylor should technically already be a minority owner under the terms of the sale but he bought additional shares from a minority owner to bump back up his %. As the article points out, there's basically no reason for him to do this unless he was planning to ratfuck them

I think Taylor knows he's going to lose but sees the wolves have a (admittedly small) chance of winning everything and either wants to be the one on the podium or be given someone extra to step away.

He's a poo poo head.
