JR Smith gets the Chris Webber award for the day.

My mind is blown... he had a wide open layup... and he nearly took a half court shot at the wrong basket.

Yeah it really looked like he didn't know what basket he was shooting at.

Unreal

Warriors getting every call right now.

Feels like it's a 12 on 1 game of basketball right now... LeBron vs The Warriors, the Refs and LeBron's teammates.

Yeah clean strip by Hill wasn't a foul.

I have to admit I had no idea they were allowed to overturn that charge call, I don't think it was a charge LeBron was still moving but I do not think they should be allowed to reverse that call. I hope they change that rule next year

Surprise
JR’s bonehead play totally took the focus off the fact that Hill just choked on the go ahead free throw.

Really too bad. It’s hard to imagine the Cavs bouncing back from that. They had the game.

That whole thing is Draymond's fault, he was taunting LeBron when he wsa shooting FT's. LeBron then got mad that Curry was going to shoot at the end, to avoid a shot clock violation so he blocked the shot and then woofed at Curry. Then Thompson elbows Livingston and Draymond starts taunting him.

I don't think it's a good idea to get LeBron mad he might get 70 next game

This game has been a catastrophe. Warriors don’t need preferential treatment from the officials and JR Smith is a dope. Un-f**king-watchable

That just makes the NBA look bad and the refs. I think Tristan fouled Livingston, I don't think it was a flagrant.

If I'm reviewing all that I give Draymond another T, give Thompson a T for the ball to Draymond's head, take away the flagrant

I still can't believe that ending, Hill chokes a FT, brainfart by JR, and then total meltdown the last 30 seconds

I don't know how the refs decide when to abandon the rules and when not to. Twice this quarter they have inbounded the ball to LeBron and he starts running upcourt, 3-4 steps without dribbling. It's in the backcourt so I guess the refs figure it doesn't matter but you gotta dribble every now and then

I'm curious how many traveling calls have been made against Lebron throughout his career. I doubt he's been called for a dozen. Without being able to look it up easily, would anyone feel comfortable betting the over if it was 15 in total? Which would be once a year.

Think about this:

Does this happen with a Phil Jackson-coached team? Greg Popavich-coached team? Pat Riley-coached team?

Situations like this simply don’t happen with halfway decently coached teams.
