So we heard exactly 2,933 times about how Jamal Murray was injured in the last round. Will we have to hear that after every missed Doncic shot this round?

Heh, I think Luka legit got beat up more than Murray did in the OKC round. Of course, he doesn't rely on speed or burst that much. I also think we will see and hear a lot of noise regarding his foul-baiting and on going dialogue with the refs.

Speaking of which.....For those that firmly believe that the NBA and refs conspire to favor certain teams and stars, is Anthony Edwards now getting to the point of being one of the preferred guys, if not THE preferred guy? I think a lot of the U.S.-born NBA "elites" in positions of power and influence want to see someone actually born in the U.S. become the face of the league. Not sure Tatum quite does it for a lot of folks....So wouldn't the conspiracy theorists believe that Ant will see a better whistle than Luka?

I'm one of those conspiracy theorists, and this has been on my mind the past 24 hours. If we don't see at least decent Timberwolves whistles I'm going to malfunction

A-Rod was on the court taking with a guy who sits right in front of us wearing a VIP tag. I’ll be careful not to say anything bad about A-Rod during the game.
