I just figured out when the Jets are going to draft a franchise QB.

I feel like a flagrant 1 putting him on 3 points and at risk of suspension the rest of the series for any more antics would’ve been appropriate. Now he can keep pushing the envelope, and short of a flagrant 2, he’s not facing and real risk. Make the dude responsible for his actions, just like anyone else.

maybe I’m in the minority but.. as much as I wanted this to be corrected, I also want to play the spurs at full strength. just would’ve been nice if this was called in real time. it warranted a 1, bare minimum common foul. moving on. let’s win a basketball game tonight

No flagrant upgrade on the uncalled foul of Spurs' Victor Wembanyama to Knicks' Jalen Brunson on Monday night, a league spokesperson tells ESPN. Wembanyama will stay at two flagrant points in postseason.

@kylemaggio Just make him run. Push the pace and Wembanyama will not be able to finish.

Maggio@kylemaggio·3h

And with that, I’m done bitching about the Wemby assault. Go kick his ass today and secure 3-1. Need to see smart, bruising play from blue & orange. Spurs shouldn’t feel comfortable all game.

Yes Knicks, be physical with Wembanyama. But way more importantly, make him run. He’s a 30 minute player on a 40 minute shift. Get this dude gassed, take away his legs, and he’s useless in crunch time.

@SerbianAmerica1 They had 2 successful challenges, it’s not their fault the refs had more than 2 incorrect calls they couldn’t challenge. I hope this helps. You’re excused from watching the rest of the playoffs, the Knicks took care of that for you. Enjoy the World Cup.

Sloba_ATL@SerbianAmerica1·12h

Excuse me, how is it not "knicks fault" when their coach is the one and only one who decides when to use the challenge. Brunson flagrant was reckless, he didnt even see where will he land. Definitely flagrant... Refs fault for 6 people on the floor and giving the ball to inbound but it didnt influence the result

Knicks fault: Sloppy turnovers Late/slow defensive rotations Poor 3 point shooting “Stand around” offense Not Knicks fault: Brunson “flagrant” Wembanyama missed flagrant 6 men on the floor missed technical Knicks have to use both challenges and can’t challenge anything else

Don’t upgrade it. 1 flagrant away from a suspension they’re gonna let Wemby play like prime Draymond

Marc Stein@TheSteinLine

The NBA, as is customary, will today review Victor Wembanyama’s first-quarter foul on Jalen Brunson to determine whether any additional penalties (such as a retroactive flagrant foul) are assessed.

@ryuryu2949 Spurs are setting the tone picking up Brunson full court and wearing him out physically. Either the refs are going to need to start calling some fouls on that (which won’t happen) or you have to change the pace from full court. Make Wemby run more than they grind Brunson down

@tomoboyle Agree with this summary. Would also add more generally "inconsistent refereeing/different standards for what Spurs can do vs. what Knicks can do."

NY Media wonder why everyone hates them. Old school “Knicks for clicks” content.

Ian O'Connor@Ian_OConnor

Mike Brown has been on a dream run as head coach of the Knicks. But when his historic 13-game winning streak was snapped last night in the NBA Finals, he blamed the refs when he should have blamed his team. nytimes.com/athletic/73436…

@tomoboyle So bad challenges by Knicks are whose fault exactly?

@KnicksCentral Just do Wembanyama’s close out of Hart in the corner. His whole leg was in the natural landing zone.

So if you didn’t watch the Knicks & Spurs game last night, and you played the game “guess which foul was called a flagrant” Which one would you choose?

KATWrld@kat_wrld·1d

By the way 2 more flagrant foul points for Wemby in the playoffs and he gets suspended is very clear why he’s being protected so much

KATWrld@kat_wrld

Wemby easily could have been ejected from both games 2 and 3 and yet not a single one of any of the 4 clear technicals/flagrants have even been called a common foul

While you’re here, the NBA is letting Wembanyama get away with flagrants because they’ll be forced to suspend him soon.

@dou9i3 @heyitsmiller This is something we learn in little league. If you don’t have the ball, get the hell out of the runner’s way.

English

Dougie@dou9i3·14 May

@heyitsmiller It’s hard to believe that if you see someone on the chalk in a rundown, without the ball, that you’re going to go out of your way to avoid them instead of trying to make a play to push a run across. Spin it how you want but obstruction was the call 🤷🏽‍♂️

Jomboy@Jomboy_·14 May

I think MLB has made two rules to try and stop this type of baserunning? And neither were enforced. I could be wrong but I though they made a rule to stop players from Running through the bag at second and they definitely just made a rule about baserunners initiating contact with a fielder.
