I have no idea what he says. It was a weird time to be asking a question to Jokic with a 15 seconds left in an already decided game.

Just the camera angle, Dosunmu popping out and asking a question and Jokic shaking his head no. I thought it was hilarious no context NBA

I can answer the context which was weird in itself. Ayo Dosunmu was checking into the game with like 15 seconds left as he was at the table for a while but the Wolves had the game won and took a shot clock violation on purpose. Ayo Dosunmu checks in here. Nuggets ball as they run out the clock.

About the only thing defenders can do is "pull the chair" move. Especially when ball handler is driving and holds out their arm to push the defender which also help slow the ball handler down. If the defender backs out of the way, ball handler loses balance with no impediment to bash into or shove.

Exactly. I've been really annoyed with it. From shoving or using an arm bar to bash in and move players aside. It's something I believe should be called an offensive foul more, but the league has routinely allowed it over the last couple years.

Anthony Edwards called for an offensive foul on a play refs allow all the time now.

Coach Finch challenges and loses, offensive foul upheld.

This indicates that NBA refs are constantly allowing offensive players to get away with uncalled illegal contact.

Seven first half points for Ayo Dosunmu in his eighth game with the Wolves.

Dosunmu is at his best in the half court as a second side attacker.

Next offensive possession, Wolves use the defense overloading to Edwards to run a play to get Naz Reid an open look from three.

As a question about how much the Bulls have changed began, Doc Rivers briefly interrupted:

β€œYeah, they added 17 more guards.”
