1) The Celts should be decently happy with the refs tonight

2) it was his 3rd foul.  This wasn’t some rando first foul.  But you already know that.
The warriors are "the best third quarter team on the planet" because they take advantage of NBA refs not wanting to foul out stars 

Now they're not supposed to call the third foul in the first half?

Gtfo.  Be consistent within the game, not consistent with what Alex pk thinks a third foul in the first half should look like if the player is really really famous

No foul on Tatum's drive ... again

Timelord called for the loose ball foul

Offensive foul called in favor of Curry who didn't have his feet set

All normal

Curry gets his fourth foul,  Kerr doesn't challenge... here it comes

You’re a good guy.  But you know that isn’t what I wrote.  Stop with the BS distortion of my intent.

I don't know why you even watch

It was an offensive foul on Smart.

And the 4th foul on Curry was a foul.  Pretty simple.

 
The 3rd foul wasn’t a foul.  And it matters a lot more than getting the call wrong on a 1st foul.

But you wrote:  “Now they're not supposed to call the third foul in the first half?”

Which I never implied or wrote.
I'd direct my anger to Kerr who didn't think it was worth challengingn the obvious non foul

 
Celts still playing aggressive which is great to see.  The Warriors do have a couple things going for them—Klay, Poole and Wiggins are starting to show signs of life.  Feels like if Curry can get some traction—we could be looking at this game getting a lot tighter. 
Just like I predicted. Celtics need to get back to that crisp ball movement where they end up with open threes or get to take advantage of their size inside.  Their ball movement on the offensive end has been a lot more sticky in the third quarter than it was in the first half. 

 
What the freaking freakity freak is going on with the 3rd quarters?!?

It's like Murphy's law in effect every time.

Freaking 7 pt posession, seriously?

 
Now Brown asking for a replay when he grabs a handful of jersey. Do these players realize everything is on camera?
In my experience as a player and a ref, you just don't realize what you are doing. He was likely so focused on getting to the ball he didn't even realize he grabbed the jersey.  It happened super fast.

Probably, but players telling coaches to challenge on every fight for a rebound that goes out of bounds at 11:31 of the second quarter is starting to annoy me.

This. You are ####### pumped that you got all ball on a breakaway dunk attempt that you probably have no sense of what your legs or off hand are doing.

 
Robert Williams has been a revelation. Amazing how with all the incredible athletes on the floor he still stands out
He's really the difference in this series. The second he leaves the floor, Dubs go on a run. They need every last minute they can get from him.
