00:00That's the thing that a lot of people in this audience want to call up about, and they want to
00:04hear discussed.
00:05So I'll just tell you off the top, as an IBO, the officiating last night was not very good.
00:11It just wasn't.
00:12But it wasn't one way or the other.
00:15Well, no, I thought it favored the Spurs.
00:17I'll admit it.
00:18I think it did.
00:19And I'll tell you how it did, because I want to be specific.
00:22I think that they allowed the San Antonio Spurs to do whatever they want physically with the New York Knicks
00:28to the point where there were three or four or five fouls, I wrote down, that should have been called
00:33that warrant.
00:33Some are obvious.
00:34Some are aware of.
00:35Yeah, a couple of them should have been flagrants.
00:36No doubt.
00:37The Wemby assault of Jalen Brunson, that was obvious.
00:40And look, the NBA has a choice.
00:42I don't think they've got the guts to do it, but the league could very well announce today that they're
00:46retroactively giving him a flagrant one.
00:48They should.
00:49And they should.
00:50And that would be significant, because I think that would put him one more flagrant one away from an automatic
00:54suspension,
00:54which could obviously change everything about this series.
00:57That was an obvious one.
00:59We all saw it.
01:00I think there were four or five, maybe more, of physical plays that they allowed.
01:04I think on the other side, they just allowed it.
01:07Right.
01:08Or, let me rephrase that better.
01:10When it came to their physical nature with the Knicks, they allowed it.
01:14Yes.
01:15When it came to the physical nature with San Antonio, they called a lot.
01:18It doesn't mean there weren't fouls.
01:20I think there were.
01:21I think if you go through all the fouls that were called on the Knicks, I would say 95%
01:25of them were pretty accurate.
01:26It was more what they didn't call with the physicality against them.
