there were opportunities for fouls to be called, to at least try to even the free throws out.
To go 24 free throw attempts in a second half, that's 48 for the game if you think about it the way that they called that second half.
Compared to eight, all the shots we took, we got fouled four times.
Roughly for eight free throw attempts again.
I don't complain much I never thought I'd see that in an NBA Finals game, and I saw it tonight That's tough to overcome when you're playing against a great team
And I think a really important thing for the Spurs was getting off to a hot start and completely taking the crowd out because they were pumped the entire pregame, two hours before the game started, and they took them out of the game ASAP.
Man, don't quote me.
Okay, I think maybe the 93 finals.
That was one of the crazier ones.
I think the first three games were won by the road team.
I think two things that are really going to stand out is the non-flagrant call on Stephon Castle and the flagrant call on Jalen Brunson.
No, you're right about the actual rules, but I'm just talking about the optics and how it looks.
Like, wait, Castle running Brunson over wasn't a flagrant, but Brunson turning his head and having his foot there was a flagrant.
I'm just talking about the optics, not the rules.
And just in time.
Was pretty much forced to throw that one up there.
When Brunson got hurt with that knee injury, when Harrison Barnes went into his knee and he came in to sub in, he came up big.
He had like seven points.
And if you get seven points from Jose Alvarado, that's huge.
Landry Schammett, 13 points.
