Why is that a foul on Matthews? He was first to the ball and had better basketball position. I realize the other guy went flying. But, the dramatics of a collision shouldn't impact who the foul (if any) was on.

I'd say no call as it was two people hustling that collided.

In soccer, not a foul because he got the ball first.

Not sure what the rule is in the NBA but it’s always called a foul if you undercut somebody.

Yeah that was pretty obvious.

It is supposed to be based on whether or not a player gains an advantage by the contact. So often not called against the person who got to the ball first (unless they got there first by contact).

I think it is largely an unofficial if you "undercut" a guy we will just call the foul on you as a means of decreasing possibly injuries. I get it, I just disagree with it. Floor burns and hustle should be rewarded, not punished.

As the guy already diving for it and in front, how would he have known?

It’s not a foul unless a defender knows about it?

Bucks look a little gassed to start the 4th. Gotta recalibrate and focus.

Calm down Hubie.

Will be interesting how they call this. If they are consistent with how they've ruled the same play (both in this game and in others) during the playoffs, it stays a charge.

Just my opinion, but Hubie needs to be put out to pasture

Agree here.

Can someone call Bud to tell him Horford is on the floor?

Bucks offensive execution has been terrible. Why Giannis gave it up on that last switch with Brown on him I don’t know.

This is when you miss Middleton.
