Kudos to the Refs, for once

Great, 'no call' on that Draymond trying to get a foul instead of an easy layup. When they showed the replay, I said, 'that is the very definition of incidental contact'. Refs reviewed that and called it correcly.

The Harden pass to Zu that looked like a floater absolutely should have been called a shooting foul. Good call.

They missed a few others, but every time it was challenged by one of the coaches, they correctly overturned the call.

I think you should be able to challenge as much as you want provided your previous calls were overturned. We were out of challenges (having won both of ours) and if the ref had blown that Draymond BS and given him two shots, it could have easily changed the outcome - and I would have been livid.

Excellent 'no call'.

Great defense by Kawhi on that play too - and throughout the game, actually.

I thought Zubac was being hacked often but got ZERO calls all game. Not one free throw, despite playing huge minutes below the basket in constant traffic.

Zu is ALWAYS hacked with no calls. Every game, countless times. If someone fouls Zu hard under the bucket, they let them play. But if a perimeter defender barely touches the offensive player's pinky tip, it's a foul.

Reminds me of how Shaq used to get fouled back in the day.....

Yes very much like that.
