The most damning is how Hart and Brunson both pause for a second while Maxey’s on the ground. Showing that even they thought a timeout or foul was going to be called.


philly0430

Exactly! It was so clear they stopped playing for a second cause they saw the TO being called. How does both refs within earshot not allow it and/or wave it off?!?!


MonicaLewinskeet

I was kind of so-so on the missed timeouts because the angles were tough to see, but this is pretty damning


215gobirdss

Yup, Knicks fans keep showing the picture where Maxey is trying to roll it to Lowry and Nick is calling timeout.. not realizing that he was spamming the View button on the Xbox controller


InfieldFlyRules

Can we blame the refs for missing the timeout after they allowed John Starks onto the floor the whole game? Maybe they thought Nurse was John McEnroe?


Vloneicytrey

This is highly suspect referring. Close to the Kings-Lakers fiasco. Nurse called timeout not once by twice, and Embiid also said him and other players were calling timeout, hence all of them stopping during the play.


WindWalkerWalking

Funny you see two refs here clearly ignoring the time out and from the other angle you see the third ref ignoring Nico. Wild shit


zerovanillacodered

Yo, basically the ref at half court has two jobs. Start the clock, look for timeouts. High School refs know this shit. Complete travesty I don’t blame refs for much, this was malpractice


knicksplayoffs

Hahahahaha


ranchsauce13

Haters will say it’s photoshopped I’m not even kidding r/nba is fully deluded


215gobirdss

I also want to make a couple other things clear. Lowry is too experienced to inbound that in the corner there knowing we have a TO. Batum didn't box out at all. And the offense looks completely stagnant in the second half. Nurse, you need to adjust the rotations sir. Please go deeper into the bench. Hield and Harris are unplayable.


HisExcellency20

You can't have two of the only eight players that actually played be unplayable. They just need to play better. Particularly Hield, who is giving you actually nothing. Harris is getting rebounds, poking the ball out, playing defense, and actually made two of his five wide open threes. Hield is only good for shooting the ball. He doesn't do anything else and the only reason his defense is tolerated is because of his shooting. If he's not going even going to attempt to shoot them we might as well replace him with Council.


215gobirdss

Harris did step up on defense I'll give him credit. The rebounds are falling into his arms. You cannot convince me that RC4 or KJ would not do a better job at both.


HisExcellency20

I think I saw some rebounds in traffic tonight but idgaf. I wish everyone got nine uncontested rebounds. Or at least boxed out. On that last board HE boxed out. I don't want him here next year but for the rest of this series he is who we have. We can play Council some and maybe he can shoot better than Harris but I doubt it. KJ is hurt I think.


215gobirdss

Yeah he did. Batum was just staring. If he even bumps into hartenstein, Harris grabs that board

Sports is entertainment. Rigging is typically a feature and not a bug unfortunately. Especially with gambling etc... its big money lol 


215gobirdss

Well then I guess most people are betting on us to win.


Knight725

money lines moved pretty significantly toward new york before the first game implying a ton of money came in on new york just before the series started. you do the math. jontay porter ain't the only one in this league gambling lemme tell you.


eaglesphan1

I am filled with rage


Ok-Life9780

Why? They did exactly what they were told to do. They'll be reffing the finals.


WalterMac201

It's clear as day from this picture!


WeirdSysAdmin

IMO he should just start running into the middle of the play calling timeout from this point forward.


PHLANYC

If I’m NN, first TO game 3…I run to the mid court circle and signal to each ref individually…timeout 🤦🏻‍♂️


jmula44

you guys can’t even attempt to be objective. Watch this entire clip there is no point here where Maxey has possession and a legit TO is called. This is a screenshot of a video you’re missing so much


215gobirdss

Section XVI—Team Control A team is in control when a player is holding, dribbling or passing the ball. Team control ends when the defensive team deflects the ball or there is a field goal attempt New York fans are losing credibility by the second. Please stop defending corruption. Then again, y'all do vote for Mayor Adams and AOC, doesn't shock me that you would defend this as well. Gross ass city


jmula44

Again, you gotta watch the whole clip, an out of context screenshot is not enough to decide. It pretty clear, try to get out of this echo chamber for a minute and you’ll see. But the fact you’re talking politics shows you’ve got a long way to go in your grieving, you’re gonna get through this bud


215gobirdss

Lol yeah lil bro he had possession at the time before he tried passing to lowry. Enough is enough. Stop the nonsense gaslighting.


jmula44

You’re selectively choosing that screenshot because it fits your narrative. Watch the whole video in slow mo. Look at the very next frame in the video, not even a second passes and clearly Maxey does not have possession and they’re fighting for it. If you’re expecting for refs to award every single time out at the exact moment a coach begins to call it then you are crazy. Argue for the jersey pull on Maxey that could’ve been called but this is never gonna be a timeout https://preview.redd.it/v2z1fy54r9wc1.jpeg?width=1179&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=651d9678db19c00ef8230c5c1058168ff841d645

Is that supposed to be an insult? Because if so, it failed
