Blatant foul. Wasn't even close, it was a full body hit.
No call.
But Cleveland can't blame about the refs when the Knicks got like 82 offensive rebounds.

Cavs had it for the taking but couldn't rebound. In fact Mitchell was the only one crashing the offensive boards for the Cavs. Deer in headlights tonight.
It's odd considering the potential of Mobley and Mitchell's ability to become an absolute flamethrower in the playoffs, but I feel like the Knicks' ceiling is higher (this year anyway). Randle made some real boneheaded plays (in part because of rust), and they still survived.
Mobley was awful today. He completely killed the Cavs. Have to imagine he improves as the series goes on but today was a terrible performance
I really don't get Bickerstaff's choices there... why no Okoro? He's much better than Osman for this matchup.. you need someone to guard Brunson and help on the boards.
Knicks fans are way more aware of this than you, he is the weak link in their rotation and we count the seconds until he is off the floor.
Nah, it looks like he got benched because NYK just didn't cover him and he went 0-4 on 3s.
Bickerstaff has to find a way to create offense, because Okoro is his only real option on Brunson.
Makes even more sense that some Knicks fan proposed a trade for Jaylen Brown as if RJ had a lot of value (I believe it’s in the Jaylen thread)
sheesh that’s bad. Mike Breen! (Brey hasn’t started his media career yet but I’m sure it’s coming)
With healthy Timelord, Boston is better. Plus, we’ll see if they can hold up, getting older of course.
No shit. I mean, I have a bit of PTSD from last year too, but they are very beatable. Especially by a certain Boston team that almost beat them last year and is better this year.
Having Wiggins back for them is huge admittedly.. and I see that Draymond is being allowed to do whatever the hell he wants to again this year.
Warriors look pretty good, but they definitely have weaknesses, starting with their turnovers.
Also Kings are basically the best matchup they could hope for in that it's a team with no real defense.
I'd also say the Warriors are getting the benefit of a really bad shooting night from SAC. The defense has not been the main reason for the 4/20 performance from 3. (Huerter looks a little shook)

Once when they were both still very young, I proposed Greg Bird for Mookie Betts here, surprisingly no one went for that either.
It's been awhile since we've heard them, but good lord are Sacramento fans loud. I can't remember the last time hearing any crowd this loud, fitting for their first playoff game in nearly 17 years.
The Kings are indeed the 2022-23 NBA revelation. And they are easy to love too, including their cowbell ringing, beam lighting crazy fanbase.
This game is making me unhappily remember how much hacking and fouling Draymond gets away with.
Wow…..great call. I honestly can’t make a decision so I’ll give them a tie as the worst by a mile
He’s just so painfully out of touch while trying to be hip and cool. That’s bad enough but the fact that he seems so impressed with himself makes it all the worse
And he just clapped at Trey Lyles following a foul call, straight eye contact. I mean, what else is taunting?
It makes no sense to me as he doesn't seem like a guy that the league would like. I would think he'd be more an NBA version of Brad Marchand, but clearly he isn't
