Double-tech seems fine to me. Penalties for violations are derived from the NBA rule book, not from some personal determination of justice. Both shoving someone and taunting someone are against the rules and a tech is a fitting punishment for both.

They also give out technical free throws for defensive 3 in the key violations. How much worse is shoving someone than standing in a location for 3 seconds and not bothering anyone?

Eh. If you let Nance do that, it means you have to let Morris do it, and then you have Nance in the 2nd row with a broken orbital bone and you can't call anything.

No pretty sure you can tell the difference between a punch and a push to the shoulder.


Yea, I'm saying that was Nance trying to push him at close to 100%, but if Morris pushed Nance close to 100% effort he'd go flying.

The funny thing is in replays where they show it, we only see Al do it on free throws with no rebound, or when he sees a teammate being clear to take it, or on buzzer beaters - the only times when it's ok to not rebound. Is there footage of him flinching on live balls and someone else getting them and/or flinching on live balls and then jumping for the rebound anyway. It's so funnily weird.

Question, other than the HOU-GSW game yesterday, why are games almost always blowouts?
Losing teams surrendering early? Early lead being difficult to overcome?
We rarely see down the wire 50 lead exchanges game anymore.

I think it's good because it might mean these series are turning into real chess matches where gameplans are determining the result.

Last year one of the nerdy NBA writers did a peice about that and it was basically all about 3PT%. IDK if that is holding to this year.

I am a bit pissed that Cleveland lost, couldn't see the game live but I read that LBJ seemed very tired.
It's probably a free win for GSW at this point

LBJ has done strategic resting and walking all season and playoffs long, but last night was the first time I've seen him literally hunched down to rest and was breathing heavily all game. Game 6 is in Cleveland though, so I expect it will be an easy win for the Cavs,

He was also really tired the last Finals. That team needs a better coach if only for the moments where Lebron isn't on the court.

This is really the worst team Lebron could have at this point in his career.
There was some hype after the trade that they got younger and more athletic but that has not been realized at all.
Love is a now you see me now you dont type of player.
Korver is hitting his shots but Lue is not putting him in rotation as often as he should.

He is practically alone in this playoffs.

Reminds me of the Inside the NBA post game segment after the Celtics vs.Cavs game 2 when JR pushed Horford.
Chuck was all serious about having your teammates back and showing passion and team-spirit, but he ends it with a funny shade on Shaq like: "You know we the NBA, and we aint no fighters. We fight like Shaq!"

But I think Morris will manhandle Lance.

He should be less Kobe and more Magic at this point. If he was not the primary scorer, he would be able to focus on all the other little things.
