It was called a common foul. Your saying it should been Flagrant?

From where I was sitting, it was a hockey play. He was trying to put Divo down intentionaly. I can't say he was trying to injure him, but he was trying to let out some aggression. Look at the play that proceeds the hit.

If it were football, it might be called for a blindside block. Not sure there is an NBA corollary. The movement of shoulder towards DDV's shoulder and head seems intended to initiate contact though rather than merely setting a pick. He doesn't give Devo a chance to avoid contact. Now, is that more than a pick? I mean, a flagrant 1 is simply unnecessary contact. To me, this could have been called a flagrant 1, maybe even a flagrant 2 where there seems to be intent to catch Devo in the head. I think if Burks doesn't give Jackson a neck massage, they probably bump that up to a flagrant once they finish the Jackson/iHart staredown. Instead, they T up all three players. MIght not have been a flagrant though. Judgment call. I am fine with how the Knicks responded. Good to see Hart, Burks and Achiuwa intervening to protect their guy.

refs blew it. that should have been a F1 and when Carlisle cried they should tell him he's lucky it wasn't an F2

it was a bench warmer trying to take out a starter. Phil Jackson used to pull that crap even against the Knicks, using third stringers to mug up starters.

they have nesmith (sp?) doing the same thing essentially challenging the refs to call fouls. SOmetimes JB is getting fouled 3 or 4 times on one possession

Props and cred where do. That dude kept it together and Mav's knocked off the top seed out west Thunder.
We talked a lot of **** about Kyrie but this version of him in Dallas has been very good.
Hoping knicks can join them in an conference final!
NBA has two game 7's today!
