Did anyone see the intentional fouls that were called early in the 1st quarter.
One went against Patty Mills when the Aussie's were inbounding and committed a turnover. Mills put a hand on the player that had stolen the ball and they called an intentional. It was so weak. Feeble Refs!

FIBA has a "clear path" rule. Without having full knowledge of the situation that could be a factor.

I saw the play...it was a "clear path" rule enforcement.
