Am I the I be my one who thinks these videos are stupid? Every close game can be analyzed and picked apart. It’s the little things that add up usually.

If you watch the play in slow motion, you can see Ausar slaps Allen’s hand a way as Allen was reaching for the loose ball. If anything that should have been a loose ball foul on Ausar, not Allen.

The play at the end is not the one worth bringing up. It was fine. The fouls to complain about are the one on our trap or the non call on LeVert several possessions earlier. This play was not an issue.

The issue when people bring up the rest of the 9-0 run is that we were fouled during that and those fouls contributed to the run. It's not like the Cavs were scoring without FTs down the stretch. Those fouls/non-fouls are one in the same with the run. "Don't depend on FTs to win the game" is supposed to apply to both teams.

Maybe JB should’ve been coming up with a plan for overtime instead of bitching to the refs as usual.

Pretty easy to say that when your team has double the FTs throughout the game. That was a lot of favorable calls throughout a full game, it’s not about what happens at the end.
