Mike Breen asking Steve Javie about Foster's cut:

"From here, Mike, it certainly looks like a dark crimson substance reminiscent of blood which is a bodily fluid mainly associated with an organ called the heart. Oh wait, we're getting word that it's actually blood. Yes, he's clearly bleeding. Profusely. "

Have to root for the Lakers here. Celtics are in trouble but on the theory they still could win, this west series needs to go long. Jokic looks exhausted. He is half the player he was against the Suns.

I get what you are saying but I simply cannot think of any good reason to root for the Lakers. I want them to lose in miserable fashion always and forever.

Ref ball!

Lakers are winning this game. We should all acknowledge this now.
I don't do this that often but it is notable that Foster deemed that very incidental - and after Davis put the ball up - leg to leg contact. Its a weak call during the regular season which makes it even more glaring now.

I’m not rooting for them to win the series. But a sweep would be bad for the Celtics. These two teams are asleep on their feet. I want this to go seven games.

And then two other quick calls on Nuggets. The conspiracy people usually assume it’s a late call but the league goes to work by getting Jokic a 3rd late in the first half and 4tb within the first 5 min. Then you get a bonus situation. Then the lakers are allowed to be aggressive on D. Lakers will win by 10+ and this will be forgotten.
