        Embarrassing finish if you’re the NBA. Yikes.

          Hell no.

          Giannis touched Jimmy on the shoulder AFTER the shot was released (while he kicked his legs out trying to draw contact).

          Dragic crowds Middleton, but Middleton's momentum is moving him forward & Dragic gave him no space to land cleanly.

          Terrible ending to the game.

              Yea. But if the previous foul was never called, they don't call that foul on Butler

              They usually let the players decide the game. And I actually do think they do a good job of that on shots that would decide the game

                As much as don't agree with these calls again. It is a rule. And from the angle of the ref. I could see how it looked. After he just made the same exact call on the other end. He didn't let him land. The jump shot doesn't end until the player lands

                      Old man comment: Some of these fouls are way too soft today. It feels like the NBA version of the protect-the-QB thing the NFL went through. Shooters don't need that much protection. Offensive players are projecting their bodies into dudes standing still and claiming they've got no place to land... and it's working. That's why we get endings like the one we just saw.

                        He kicked his legs out and landed out of bounds. I think with all that considered you let the "foul" go & let them decide it in overtime.

                        Instead, Miami escapes with a 2 - 0 advantage & Milwaukee is on the ropes.

                          Bruce Bowen was notorious for such antics, so I can't say whether the rule is justified or making the game softer.

                          Even when it came to Kawhi being "Zaza'ed" a few years ago.

                          I just think there is a difference between a guy drifting forward, a defender standing still in your landing spot & a guy falling away with his legs kicked out trying to initiate contact.

                            90% of these shooters land somewhere else from where they took off from.

                            Dragic was standing straight up then raised up on his tippy toes. So he gets penalized for being human. Do they want these guys jumping backwards to contest shots?
                            Kenny: Ok Vic, I'm ready for some girl on girl action.
                            Vic: No Kenny, that's girl versus girl.
                            Kenny: What's the difference?
                            Vic: Well, in one, one girl wins. In the other....

                              Both calls where a complete joke. I don't know what one was more of a joke. They where both so bad and even more so being that it was at the end of the game when normally you can get away with more and instead they went to calling more tick tack type of calls. Glade heat won and that the first one didn't end up costing the heat the game.

                                Yeah I love sports I am 31 so not even that old but the way things are called now days I think 1 favors the offensive side of the ball to much, and 2 has made the game soft. There is more talent than ever before but I wish the rules where more like how they where in the late 90's or even early 2000's.
