SGA’s “game” is disgraceful. He’s like fucking Neymar on the pitch. All he does is throw his body into defenders and draw bullshit fouls and shoot free-throws. That’s the league mvp? Cool product. I thought skill in basketball was getting around defense or making contested shots, not hanging two fouls in the first two minutes on Rudy, who didn’t foul either time. I don’t even think the refs are on the take like back in the day when they helped the Lakers past the Kings. I think it’s just a horribly flawed game now.
To be fair, pretty much everyone hates the way shit like this gets officiated. They've been better about it in the playoffs, but last night was a big step back.
The part that is so disgusting is that SGA is immensely talented and doesn't need to stuff like that to score 25+ points.

Got to love Brunson just falling over and getting the foul call and then Toppin getting nothing on that dunk with the hack on the arm.

The ECF will be such a close series. You'd have to imagine that the Knicks will be able to pick off a win back in Indiana, they're too good not to.

the worst part was that it wasn't even a large graduating class. the principal and (i'm not even sure of his title, but he was some administrator) some other dude decided to give interminable over-the-top speeches before even handing out diplomas. oh, and the cell-phone service was spotty at best.

That reminds me of a high school commencement ceremony I went to a few years ago. 70 graduates, 6(!) speeches from students, 3 from administrators, a reading of every scholarship each student earned, and then everyone walked across the stage. 140 minutes. Awful!
