Maybe if players didn't just stand around with their arms out in front of them crying expecting a foul anytime anyone farts in their general direction instead of keeping up with the live ball, then maybe they might have a chance against the Wolves. But no, all these crybabies babies still standing halfway down the court crying at the refs every 20 seconds while their team basically plays half the shot clock a man down every possession..You're not getting paid to flop like a limp noodle.

The crying for fouls, the mental meltdowns, including the coach, on top of the losing two at home is shocking. It's certainly not the look of a champion.

Their quick and easy defeat of a weak Lakers team has set them up for failure; not ready for prime time.

When they were actually calling fouls reasonably consistently, the Nuggets went point for point with the Wolves.

The disparity in fouls was once again, the NBA, deciding who’s going to win the game quite literally Jamal, Murray, Djokovic, and the entire team were probably fouled 75 times and there were no calls and don’t tell me I’m a sniveler it’s called. The rules of the game I don’t care who wins. I want a fair game called I did with my bad because I was betting for the Timberwolves, but that was that was ridiculously nasty.

I will say watching the games - the referees have allowed the Wolves more physicality than they have allowed the nuggets. There isn’t necessarily a discrepancy in the number of calls but the type of calls. They are calling basic hand checks on KCP while allowing Alexander Walker to ride Murray up the court with his body.
@2kolbe010
Ай бұрын
If the contact isn’t initiated by alexander walker then the there is no foul. On a number of possessions there is contact with murray and alexander walker. Murray using his off hand or forearm to shield away and alexander walker using his body. The contact between the two would be void, because it’s coming from both sides. I can understand if its to the point where the wolves are initiating contact without any restraint. However, thats not the case. Take for example the naz reid block on jokic. Jokic is banging down low and is initiating contact first. Naz is initiating contact back. When the block occurs there is contact from naz but the ball is not in possession of either player. Jokic gets the rebound and tries to pit it back up but he looses control of the ball and the contact from naz on jokic is voided because of the forearm coontact from jokic is already happening. The officiating is not perfect but instead of the nuggets playing through contact they are trying to sell everything. You dont normally see them do this. Wolves came out aggressive and probably was refreshed on what negligible contact before the game.
