Hachimura with the leg kick at KAT (?) from the ground. Now they're reviewing it.
Surely no Japanese man could ever be guilty of a hostile act!
edit: double techs on Rui and Ant. That's lame, but I guess expected.

LAL. I still feel there is some universe in which things click for the Lakers (they are on a 16-7 stretch) and they go on a deep run, while there is no such hope for Miami. Even if they do somehow get out of round 1, there is a pretty massive silver lining for Boston (no more Milwaukee).

I know in my heart of hearts that he'll collapse in the second half, but he's looked great so far.me watching a based KAT making behind-the-back passes for dunks to go up on the Lakers by 10
Allie LaForce is such a cool name. I feel like if you asked someone who Allie LaForce was, they'd say a character on Star Trek.
Fakers are seriously losing to Minny at home without Gobert?
Davis should get 60 by himself tonight

Well we just witnessed the worst goaltending call in the history of the NBA. I’m always one to be soft on the refs as I get how impossible their job is at game speed…..but that wasn’t even close to a goaltend.
I'm watching with the sound off and only got the quick replay, but it looked pretty egregious. Is this the sort of call that can be overturned later, taking away 2 points from minnesota?
They’ve done so twice so far. This team has really struggled late in games to close teams out so this game could/should be a fantastic finish.
Feels like it's gonna depend on KAT. They are just killing the Lakers when he's on the court, and there's just no guarantee he ends up being available for minutes down the stretch.
In the 3 dept, .Miinn is kind of the opposite of Atl
And is it possible Min is better WITHOUT Gobert?

Not a great day for the trade KAT crowd (may be just me). Absolutely remarkable that the Wolves are up by this much with both Lebron and AD playing well, and Ant in the middle of his worst game of the year.
They were basically league average during the year (14th in makes and 15th in attempts), but that's mostly without KAT, perhaps the most prolific 3 point shooting center in history. Worth noting that they were 1st in both makes and attempts last year (granted two of their big shooters last year are now with the Lakers, but still).
Why do they bother showing us the coaches in the huddle. "Hey...play defense all right? Let's get some stops. Get rebounds, loose balls...okay? Let's go."
If Miami ends up making the playoffs and faces the Bucks, they are gonna just get murdered on the boards. Bucks were 1st in rebounds this year, Miami was 27th (Atlanta was 10th). Few things I like more than "tough" teams who can't rebound.
Part of the agreement that was made to allow the media into the huddles was that they were not allowed to broadcast any strategic discussions. It makes an NBA coach looks like a job any fan can do to a casual.
Miller praises the Conley/SloMo PnR. Anderson immediately proceeds to get stuffed at the rim. It wasn't the first time either.
And KAT picks up foul #5 in less than a minute of playing time in the 4th quarter. GJGE. He's the offensive version of JJJ.
