Yes it's not a 2 and NBA better lower itjust saw the replay. No way that's a flagrant 2. unfortunately the contact was awkward, yet unintentional . . . but they felt they had to call something. but not a 2.

That's a misnomer being passed around. Far from true. The depth of the fences were the same as that at Comiskey Park, and that was considered one of the toughest parks to hit homers in. I have no idea why that rumor was started. It distracts from the truth of the game itself.I was not a fan of the field of dreams game last year seems you hit a pop up it was a HR last year.
Yes that's other major issue players today get touched go down like they are shot or got hurt and will need to be taken off the court on a stretcher. How about stop the bad acting man up get up off the ground and go back to playing like they used to.That wasn't a 2. I see plays like that repeatedly against Giannis, but he's strong enough to play through them, and all that's called is a shooting foul, not even a flagrant. The difference is, Giannis isn't trying out for a role in a new version of West Side Story. Call it a flagrant 1, fine but a 2? Bull!
What I liked seeing is the Bucks defense without fouling for most of the game. Good hands, good positioning. The Nets had better stats in 3s, and inside the arc, but when it came to crunch time, the Bucks were straight up nasty on defense. They did not commit foolish fouls, while clawing themselves back into the game.
The only categories the Bucks stood out on were rebounding, and at the free throw line. Giannis hit over 75% from the charity stripe, and that quite honestly was the difference between winning and losing.
That was a gutsy game by the Bucks. They showed they're in it, not just running out the string. The season has now gotten real.
Well he was more than touched. Watch the replay. Open court, fast break and Middletown grabbed his arm when he was in the air.

The only one who bitched if you can even call it that was Kyrie. He said it was physical, it was , like a playoff game. The others were directed at 2 calls. A lot about nothingNets being a bunch of crybabies crying how physical the Bucks were with them. These wussies would have never made it in the 80s and 90s when they beat the hell out of each other.
