  1. Watching it in real time was ridiculous. Watching the replay is just laughable. That is always a whistle in the NBA. I cannot think of any explanation as to how that wasn’t an automatic foul. I guess slide tackling is a legal NBA move now…

  2. This is why nba refs are so annoying. They have different whistles for different players. It should be consistent and that’s a foul.

  3. I’m amazed Jaylen didn’t get a technical. If they are going to no call that I would have bet my house they would have compounded the issue by giving him a tech for being right

  4. This is specifically egregious because it is an automatic foul if a defender hits the offensive player’s legs and they fall. There are zero reasons that a tripping foul isn’t a foul. This is fucking shocking.

  5. This is a new technique called Slip Defense. We all shall learn it because it isn’t a foul.

  6. It s a shame, if the defender doesn’t have a position he got called for a foul always, now the defender kicked JB’s leg, it was a foul even in a soccer game!! Pathetic refereeing

  7. Might be as bad a missed call as I’ve seen in terms of egregious nature plus impact on outcome
