  1. First he doesn't get any calls now he gets a flagrant called on him… these refs suck but ig it balances out?

  2. Thats just the right call just bc the old heads was able to do lil dirty plays not today theres too much money and politics involved now fr they playing legit ball respect it or dont watch it bru who forcing you😂 because if zion got hurt from a play like this then it would be a problem fr bro literally blew right by past him then jordan grabs him and intentionally fouls thats literally what the nba been cutting down on just a low iq play🤦🏾‍♂️

  3. Deandre needs to retire. It's like those 50 something weekend warriors at the 24 Hour Fitness gym that always want to match up with the young studs. All they do is foul hard and hurt people.

  4. it's because of the rule changes. it's not "a basketball play" ; grabbing a guy's waist with two hands. Gotta pretend you're going for the ball to not get the T.

  5. HOW DARE HE TOUCH ZION…😒 they'll be wearing football pads in a few years. The league's beyond soft at this point.

  6. didn't look that bad HOWEVER…ref said it was unnecessary contact…and there's no arguing that IT WAS…because grabbing someone is not a basketball play. SMH so technically yes it's a good call. or at least not a bad call.

  7. it was called a technical foul because it was not a basketball play or a play at the ball. I kind of get it. he wasnt going for the ball and just held him by the waist. I play in a rec league before and i was one of the strongest and fastest in the league and kept doing this to me. I tweaked an ankle a few times when they did
