We don’t know what happened before that silliness by Lowry. Standing alone that clip makes Lowry look like a total douche. He should get a flagrant for instigating. All the way down the court. That’s just trying to start a fight. But we have no context. Maybe hunter hit him with an elbow early. Who knows.
That’s very different than what Lowry did. Kriisa is always trying to draw a real charge. He often wasn’t successful and called for the foul himself.
Agreed. To be honest I’d want a suspension. Like the BS that Beverley pulls it just has zero place in the game. It’s literally not basketball. Fines don’t do enough. Missing a playoff game? Yup. That gets attention and serves as a deterrent.
I don't have a problem with this move as long as the other player has sufficient space to avoid the contact, if not it's on the guy who jumped into his space.
Ah I thought you were talking about the ballhandler. I don’t remember seeing him attempt that on a non-ballhandler.
As I recall, Bobby Knight while still at Indiana pulled that trick on a late clock inbound. I think it worked but 35+ years might be shading my memory a bit.
Funny you should say that. I've felt we've frequently lacked effort (focus) since around the time Monty returned from Covid. It didn't help that he buried Biyombo so deep that the guy is lost when he finally gets a minute or two. And he's done something similar to Holiday, just not as extreme. I'm not saying it's all on Monty, just using that point in time.
True, but that doesn't matter. Kind of a ******* way to retaliate if that is what Lowry was doing though.
FTFY
Well, you're right, entire game is more accurate. But given our win/loss record, I think it's clear neither of us were talking about the full 48 minutes.
Except the Suns have looked very good and basically unbeatable, just not as consistently for the past month.
Other than the throwaway games at the end of the season, the Suns have looked very good and basically unbeatable for stretches but far too often we've mailed it in during the first half.
Well, Memphis came back and is about to finish it off. And Dallas is up by 15.
KAT is just not a smart ball player.
