Ok, watched this game start to finish, and am not really seeing the rough play that some have claimed. There was some physical play for sure, but nothing that stood out as rough.
For the most part "Ralph & Co" did a good job. There were a few I thought could have been passed on, and another one or two that just weren't fouls from the camera angle. Both teams had key players in foul trouble and I do think the officials need to do a better job of recognizing this and making sure that fouls 4 and 5 are consistent with what had been called earlier.
The kid that got ejected has to know better, and the team looked lost without him. In the 4th qtr, SA could not make an outside shot either.
