Nuggets Jokic's ejection?

[Willie99]

Anyone watch the replay? He swung hard and hit the ball, looked like contact with Booker was minimal

And he's ejected?

The world is getting more fucked by the day. When do reasonable minds making reasonable decisions return?

Liberal call , sad , a hard foul is all it was

It was a terrible call. He got all ball! His forearm did brush Payne in the face..but he got all ball. Regular foul or flagrant 1, not flagrant 2, crushed any hope Denver had.

And great acting by Payne after ffs...he must be watching LeFlop too much.

 

[exploited17]

Yeah. Bad call, but he sure didn't play like an MVP and elevate his team this series.
Nuggets need more to help him, but he was meh

Back when real men were able to play sports like real men...Note that not only did McHale not get kicked out of the game, it wasnt a flagrant foul either

NBA is turning into European pussy soccer

Between that, Detroit's bad boys, those physical HEAT/knicks series, etc. I miss those days

Trivia question (heard this on the Dan Patrick show this morning)

When was the last time the current MVP was ejected from a playoff game?

This is the bigger issue ---He should not of been MVP!

LeFlop would've folded like a little girl if he would've played in the 80's or 90's

Back in those days you'd go to a fight & a basketball game would break out hno:

Curry - but after 6 fouls

irrelevant

Yup

But he was then ejected from throwing his mouth piece into the crowd

 

[raiders72]

Brutal call especially in the playoffs. Can't think of any other big names that would have been tossed.

 

[HacheMan]

The ejection was racist

Everything else is, so why can't this be?

Bingo

Stupid call/rule. Jokic did graze the face. Was a stupid frustration foul on his part. He had a very very average series. He wasn't very good for his standards. To go out like that seemed somewhat fitting after laying an egg over the course of the series.

Nuggets seemed to play better without him though. Suns would have swept Denver and the league MVP with or without Joker the rest of the game.

And I agree with the other sentiments.. No way in Hell this league would have tossed LeBron or many other stars for that. Zero chance.

 

[Willie99]

They'd be looting in Philly, Atl, Minneapolis, Portland and Seattle if LBJ was tossed, especially if he fouled a white guy

He just doesn't have enough help

Just like Luka Doncic

Wouldn't it be great to see those two team up and rule the league?!!

There would probably be protests & looting because of that sure lol
