    palatable is how I would’ve described Jalen before that Kobe stretch…solid defense with constant good effort on that side of the ball plus inconsistent/often subpar offense with the occasional offensive explosion that would win us a game

    overall: palatable…edible…not the worst thing if you’re on a budget

    but he done got us used to fine dining now, my standards have changed

    It’s going to be a big problem in the playoffs.

    Also, how in the hell was that challenge successful favoring Mitchell on Amen??? Mitchell CLEARLY smacked him on his shoulder while getting to the ball.

    Ultimately we won and all is well, but man had we lost…

    If we would have lost this game, I blame Ime more than Tari. He sticks with guys that aren’t playing well way too long.

    I guess I need to go back and re-read the rule book because I always thought the only part of the body was allowed while hitting the ball was the hand. So as long as you hit the ball first you can smack any part of the body? Interesting.

    I like how Ime never panicked or showed emotion during those last few moments. Even after the tari flagrant he was still coaching and preparing for what was next.

    Make up call for the Alpi one?

    I don't know how they came up with nothing on Alpi for shoving JA.

    Good to be on this side of it though for a change.

    Yea if you hit the ball first, it pretty much doesn't matter what happens afterwards, because more than likely you were already in motion. Unless you do some kung fu kick, but thats not what happened. Clean play by Donovan.
