[Bontemps] Crowd here is extremely upset with Zach Zarba, who says the contact, “While unfortunate, doesn’t rise to the criteria of a flagrant foul.”

    You’re a handsome man Zach Zarba but I do not agree with you

  2. CluelessTennisBall

    Weird how these calls are still just so inconsistent across games

  3. K1ngCrimsn

    This Mf is giving Brothers & Foster a run for their money

  4. Hard4Favra

    Zarba deserves a titty twister until that shit bleeds to the bone.

  5. thepeachgod

    Should’ve been a flagrant but so should the kick on Pritchard so idk if that factored in

  6. BadBoySwag

    Smack in the face and the contact made McConnell fall flat on his back, wouldn’t that be flagrant most of the time?

  7. Round-Revolution-399

    Airborne player hit directly in the face causing an unsafe landing. That’s a textbook Flagrant 1

  8. JazzPlusEagles

    I’ve seen WAYYY less get called for a flagrant. I’ve even seen less get called a flagrant 2

  9. This is insane not to be a flagrant. What the actual fuck. If that’s not a flagrant 1, what is.

  10. AnonymousIguana_

    Small White Point Guards getting clobbered and not getting the flagrant call, so hot right now.

    (I’m fully aware TJ had it much worse, hope he’s ok)

  11. DROPPING_A_LOAD

    I am a biased Celtics fan and even I thought that should have been a flagrant.

  12. TheRosstitute

    Since when does intent matter for calling a flagrant?

  13. Oblockforever

    Shocked that wasn’t a Flagrant 1. Thought it was almost to the level of a Flagrant 2. He smacked him cleanly in the face. Wild.

  14. SneakyGreens

    It will be overshadowed by the fact that the call was wrong (it should have been flagrant) but a professional referee saying that a certain call was “unfortunate” is absolutely wild.

    While unfortunate, my backtaxes don’t rise to the criteria of tax evasion

  16. defeated_engineer

    Remember kids, when somebody tries to gaslight you saying NBA has an internal punishment system for refs, tell them Tony Brothers, Scott Foster and Zach Zarba are still reffing conference finals and will ref finals games in a week.

    Zarba refereed game 1 vs the knicks, enough said

  18. philliesfan136

    A Few Good Men type shit 😂 “McConnell’s death, while tragic, probably saved lives”

    As you should all be aware, kicking someone in the face or putting a hand into someone’s face while they’re airborne aren’t flagrants. A flagrant is putting your shoe into a spot a foot in front of a shooting opponent.

  20. I dont know what a flagrant is anymore. Used to be any contact to head was a flagrant.

    But PP got kicked in the head and that wasn’t a flgrant either.

    Who knos anymore?

    They had to let it go after they let Isiah Jackson go for his bicycle kick to Prichard’s face.

  22. Brown has been allowed to hammer people all series and gotten TOs off of them. That and those constant Tatum push offs, even on the last sequence of the game, were disgusting.

  23. TippyTAHP

    They had to find some way to balance not calling the kick to the face that pritchard received. Also zarba can suck zebra cock

  24. PogoMarimo

    Read a non-fan the Flagrant Foul rules, then show them the foul on McConnell, the foul on PP, and Derrick White’s FF1 in the previous game. Ask them to guess which one of those three plays resulted in a FF1.

  25. WhatYouProbablyMeant

    I mean, when they didn’t even review the Pritchard kick to the face that’s where they set the bar for flagrants this game.
