I one-hundred percent guarantee that flagrant 2 is going to be rescinded by the league.

I will never ever agree with this assessment. I am a lifelong Warriors fan and you might say I’m biased but I am also free to admit when you draymond crosses the line and that’s what flagrant 2 is for. He did not cross the line. Its the most ridiculous call but I’ve ever seen and I will stand by that.
There were two different flagrants on that play so it’s only fair they equal a F2. And this is coming from someone who fully admits Chris Paul is a dirty player.

I'd have to see a replay but I thought he got the ball first.

I'm not even sure he hit the ball the angle they showed his hand came across Kuminga's left arm and hit the backboard.

I can't find the replay though maybe he hit the ball before and I didn't see it but it seemed to me the ball was in two hands and Jackson went through the left arm and hit the glass as the ball slipped out of the other hand. the way Kuminga reacted he clearly was expecting a foul call

memphis has some major rim protection Steph got too casual and Melton blocked his layup

Warranted or not, I enjoyed seeing Draymond get the boot. If his exit demonstration wasnt so obnoxious, id be against it, but he's a jackass.

I guess I can see it that way but seems to me they should then call it 2 flagrants and eject rather than a flagrant 2. Doesn't matter but at least clarifies why he got run.

Yep. Spot on. I couldn’t care less about Memphis. If this was all for just the slap though?!? I would disagree.

Not the death lineup but Klay, Steph and Poole together seem to be giving Memphis some issues.

Looney has to be more active on offense can't let them just not guard him

Wow. Murant. First took a bad shot then committed a bad foul back to back.

They still haven't caught Brooks on the inbounds foul. He puts his foot between your feet so when you move he trips you. Done it his whole career I remember Lonzo Ball complaining about it when UCLA played Oregon and the refs finally called him for it

Nice quarter made up the deficit but still no Draymond and Steph on the bench with 4 fouls. Really need Kuminga to pick up the slack, or get Klay going
