Never seen anything like this. 75 foul shots and still in 3rd quarter. This series has been unwatchable. Silver needs to do something to stop this.

the other series have been enjoyable but this stuff is a complete disgrace.

With the Spurs, the hack-a strategy was debateable. Between their excellent defense and transition offense, it really was on the borderline if they should foul Jordan.

With Houston it is a complete no brainer though. Listening to the halftime crew debate the merits of it was funny. They have NO CHANCE whatsoever to stop the Clipps offense now that Paul is healthy. Of course they should let a 40% FT shooter shoot 50 FTs over giving up layups and open 3s every possession.

I actually liked first half in a perverse way. Novelty wears off fast but it was kinda riveting, wanted to see him shoot like 65 FTs in a game. Not every game needs to be Clipps/Spurs gm 7

Every team in the nba with maybe the Grizzlies can't stop the clippers....shouldn't they all be doing it then?

It it really the worst basketball I've ever seen. It takes a lot for me to turn off nba playoffs but they keep managing to do it for me.

The east teams probably should. Memphis/GS probably similar to SA in that you sprinkle it in. I don't really like it for those teams when you factor in LAC gets to set their D.

When it really has value is when Doc flinches and takes DAJ off the court which he did a few times vs SA

It's ugly! Worst basketball game I've seen in awhile.

I wouldn't wanna see it every game but first half I did wanna see if Hou could keep it close and literally send him to the line like 60-70 times.

You always see teams pick their spots with it but you never really see a team just do it nonstop with that type of committment.
