I'm not gonna say it was rigged because the refs called it on both ends so the refs would've known that the coach was going to challenge a call like that and win but insane ending and I don't think it was a foul on both ends personally.
Damn the Trailblazers got decimated yesterday. After 3 quarters they only scored 56 points lmfao
Unfortunate does not even begin to describe that franchise rip

Breaking News: The Los Angeles Lakers are trading D'Angelo Russell, LeBron's dry cleaning, and a bag of chips for Zach Lavine from the Chicago Bulls
They’re on track to repeating, don’t need to be the 1 seed to win it all. Jokic is busted
blazers have a better record than the pistons, spurs and wizards can you believe that ???
Clearly they’re doing something right!
I’d move to a different state if I was a Pistons fan. Maybe this time they drop 30 games in a row
I saw this and coach brown has a point the referees have been awful this season with calls and a lot of the people are calling some of the games rigged
I know it's one regular season game, but I'm a little disappointed in the Celtic's offense tonight. Against the Champs, why are they still just isolating or shooting threes against an incredibly long team? Move their feet!
Why it gotta be against Spurs :(
He’s winning MVP this year fosho. Putting up numbers comparable to Wilt is insane (even if it was against the Spurs)
I feel bad for Wemby tho bc no matter how great he becomes in the future, being stuck on that Spurs team means he’ll be losing more often than winning
To be honest I agree with the MVP portion, I will say spurs have a storied franchise and 1 year with pop is like 5 years with an average coach so I think he'll learn a lot regardless of how bad this year will be.
side note: KAT had 62 points yesterday as well, I lowkey am gonna say a hot take, who's actually Batman and Robin on the Twolves lol....
Kat is NOT Batman bro lol
Give him a few years. Spurs are one of the best drafters and recruiters. They were the Heat before the Heat.

The way the game is officiated, the increased pace, spacing, and overall skillset of players. It's an offense first league. Denver Nuggets became the first champion to break the defense wins championships conventions.
I'm not going to lie personally I'd like to see the offensive players get less calls, because defense is just extremely difficult to play right now. In other words the league is too soft and I don't like it. I prefer early 2010 style any day of the week.
Defense is virtually non-existent these days; the sheer number of 60+ point games by the leagues stars shows how much offense dominates the NBA right now
On another note, the Heat are on a 7 game losing streak. Hope they can turn things around soon.
And on yet another note, the Lakers should swap Darvin Ham for Adrian Griffin
They should bring back the hand check lol
as a heat lifer, it kills me. i don't doubt we will still make the playoffs, but our offensive flow is concerning
