Message: [QUOTE="MikeSU02, post: 3883111, member: 60"] Between the way the rule is written and the review process, it's hard on the refs to grant leeway. I don't think the refs were looking to toss Jokic, but he wound up, followed through, hit Cam in the face, got in a scuffle (I know there as a Tech for that and it was outside the Flagrant 2 ruling), but it didn't help his cause. I think he knew the Nuggets were toast and just got careless and frustrated. The silver lining is it's the 2nd round and not the conference finals or finals. Also, I can't imagine LeBron or Kawhi getting booted for that in the playoffs. I dunno, unfortunate, but at least it's a 2nd round game where they were getting swept and not the finals in a deciding game. [/QUOTE]
