So I've watched it in slow-mo like 20 times.

and Legs says on the call, Jared Allen's foot hits Asar Thompson's foot.

That's the first contact.

The first contact between them is actually Asar Thompson's off-arm on Jared Allen, which I don't think should be a foul either, and it's a pretty light contact.

And I don't think Jared Allen's foot hits Asar Thompson's foot so much as both their feet hit the ground at the same time,

And they hit the same sliver of the ground at the same time.

And then it's hard to tell how much contact there is after that.

I think it's a no contact.

I think it's a good no call.

I'm fine with the no call.

And by the way, if you want to play this game...

A, you had a nine-point lead with three minutes left and you collapsed.

B, you had an absolutely inexcusable turnover after a Donovan Mitchell three in overtime where Max Strews picked Kate Cunningham and Donovan Mitchell got a layup.

C, your starting center, who's going to make it all NBA team, was benched.

for the last 18 minutes of the game for Paul Reed and is averaging nine points a game on 46% shooting in the series.

This Jalen Duren thing has reached a full-on crisis point for the... We talk about off-season implications of the Pistons potentially losing this series this way.

It feels like he's losing a million dollars a minute in this series.

And...

The Pistons' need for a secondary creator, which they did not address at the trade deadline, is even more urgent and will like 100,000% be addressed somehow in the offseason.

So that's that.
