This is totally true. Sixers aren’t losing because of the refs. That isn’t the point. The point is that 95% of impartial fans (I have no skin in this game) can easily see that Trae Young pushed off. It was either a no-call, a pushoff on Trae, or a defensive foul before the shot (before the what they showed repeatedly on replay). What wasn’t it? A shooting foul for Trae.
If anybody feels the refs are doing a fine job in this game I would think they should reconsider.
I wouldn't say it if it was the first time you brought the refs up. This is like the 100th time.
Well, in this case he’s right. It was a horrible call. And then on the other end of the court, Hawks defenders got a pass on more blatant contact two trips in a row. That’s just bad officiating.
Speaking of hair, I really want Maxey to shave his head. He might look slightly less out of control all the time without that hair flying around in the wind.
Young created the contact, which isn't a foul, but he didn't push off. Both players were moving and the defender, playing a lock and trail technique, never establishes legal guarding position. Could have been a no call but no way an offensive.
I think there have been a lot of bad calls both ways. I don't here complaining for the Hawks or saying the 76ers got away with one there.Well, in this case he’s right. It was a horrible call.

Howard navigates the court like that dude you play pickup with who is consistently doing his own thing, gambling on D and getting in the way when you have an open lane to the rim.
I almost started laughing when after a made Hawks basket he stood under the goal as if he was going to receive the inbounds pass and bring the ball up the court. Clearly he just needs to run down the floor but for some reason he just hung out down there like he was going to run point guard. It was hilarious.
If they sustain that 3 point shooting the rest of the season, this will be a very quick series.
I'm not so sure it's a help if you're ahead by quite a bit.
If you're ahead, you could potentially run off more than 24 seconds of game time in a possession. Done enough times, you can shorten the game when you are trying to hold on to a big lead.
You can also use it to limit the amount of possessions you have to sit a player for rest/fouls.
