She's great---do you watch much NBA?
I would typically agree with you.. but tonight she's been all in on trying to find fouls on Miami and not seeing the obv fouls on GA other than those two she pointed out (which I was saying at least tonight regarding the blind squirrel comment)

edit: still miles ahead of Breen or most of the rest of the dreck on ESPN

Miami is really stout and focused. What’s the argument that they are a better matchup for the C’s than the Bucks? Just the Giannis factor against our 5’s? Miami was one of our bubble losses.
Giannis, Middleton's shot, and Butler seems like he can be guarded by all the premium wings we have.

Celtics match up well with Bucks, defensively. Walker can guard Herro or Goran, too.

I’m impressed with Miami’s defense, but Milwaukee’s offense has been very unimpressive. They are reliant on Giannis attacking the basket, and I have very little faith in Bledsoe/Lopez/Matthews.

Dumb play by Butler. Though, sure seemed like there was a lot of contact there.

On the replay, it's egregious non-call---one guy just grabbed his arm.

Still dumb way to deal with it from Butler

George Hill is doing nothing but grabbing Butler's arm. That's a reach all day long, and twice on Giannis if it happened to him.

The Milwaukee vs Boston series game threads are going to be brutal.

I mean sure, Butler didn't call a TO, but he got fouled liked 5x. He got robbed on those non calls
Yeah both announcers described it as 'decided not to foul'.. when all I was seeing is his arms getting grabbed on both sides.. Big difference between not getting fouled and not having a foul called.

Agreed. Though, as others noted, forcing Butler into the corner where he couldn't move both made it tougher for him and tougher to see the call
