[Krell] According to the NBA’s L2M report, the offensive foul on Joel Embiid against Marcus Smart was a correct call while the Jayson Tatum push-off against Tyrese Maxey was a correct no call.

    What is even the point of the L2M report if they’re just going to lie to all of our faces

    Embiid offensive foul? Ok sure.

    Tatum’s wasn’t?? Lmao

  3. BassGuru82

    Holy shit… so, offensive players can just do that now? If that’s the correct no call, you can just push off before any jump shot attempt? Seems like possibly too big of an advantage, no?

    The L2M report is textbook consent manufacturing. Same thing when they bring on those talking heads from the ref HQ. They always agree with the call after it’s made bc they can’t look incompetent and like something needs to be fixed with their system.

    There are no fouls in Ba Sing Sae

    According to their standard it’s true because Boston is always going to get away with that kind of bullshit, especially in the playoffs. Tatum has been doing his best running back impression driving into the lane for years but the refs wouldn’t dare stop a Boston possession in crunch time. NBA officiating is the biggest joke in sports.

    Lmao absolute fucking joke. The Embiid foul was 50/50. Still don’t think it was a foul but whatever.

    Someone posted the video of the Tatum foul to r/NBA and literally every single comment agreed it was an obvious foul. This is why I fucking hate the NBA.

  7. lilbismyfriend21

    It’s the correct no call when you’re playing against Boston

  8. LordLucasSixers

    Okay. Let’s play like that then.

  9. SlavaRapTarantino

    Adam Silver sends his regards.

  10. folebear

    Are you fucking kidding me on that Tatum call lmao holy shit

  11. NotSoFakeID

    This makes me really optimistic for how games five and six are gonna go

  12. WhereDaHinkieFlair

    No matter how egregious, the NBA will never say in a L2M that a reviewed call was wrong, because the league is consulted on all reviews.

    The Tatum one though… Wow, just wow.

    “According to the script writers, the calls were correct.”

  14. bravof1ve

    The league really wants a Celtics finals appearance.

    Philadelphia losing also sells. They wanted this over in 5

  15. Griffbro

    The finest crack is being smoked over there holy shit

  16. bgallagb

    like okay, i get the embiid call. it’s kinda close.

    but tatums “no call” sets a weird precedent. unbelievably bad no call

  17. pwo_addict

    What’s the point of lying here? It just lets us all confirm for sure they’re lying. Not a single person is changing their mind on this one.

  18. TryingToForget77

    It’s like when Harden got an offensive foul for jumping up to make a shot and Horford was in mid air and smacked him. Lol.

  19. thegoseisloose

    We are so fucked in Boston next game. Refs are going to be out for blood

  20. jeppsforst

    Thank god we won so i don’t have to be irate about those calls all off-season

  21. LouSassle420

    Tell harden to be egregious with the pushoffs then. Make it obvious what they’re trying to do

  22. creativeusername9275

    L2M report, written by… Bryan Colangelo.

  23. phillies_navidad

    Remember when Harden was ejected from a game in the first round?

  24. Colangelo_Ball

    They’re really acting like the plays aren’t available in high def slow mo as if the game happened in some remote outpost with no media coverage like it’s the 1960’s.

  25. hreterh

    utterly disgusting, couldn’t be this inept in virtually any other profession except for politicians

  26. of_mice_and_meh

    Two bad calls but we still won the game. Nothing to really bitch about at this point.

  27. thegodfatherderecho

    lol…..yeah, ok. Both calls were fucking incorrect as hell.
