[Highlight] Murray fully extends arm on push off, defensive foul is called, Doris Burke praises Murray’s balance.
“Absorb the contact” lmao
Absorb the contact you created
Pushed off so hard he got off balance
Santos is such a bum, pushing Murray’s hand with his stomach
The push off is so egregious in today’s NBA. It’s just free space if you know how to use it, plus some free throws if you have a good whistle (I think everyone knows who I’m talking about).
Like, it’s the most textbook foul ever — one player extends their body part into another player’s space, making contact, all to gain an advantage while disadvantaging the other player. But nope, no foul (or, often, a foul in the exact opposite direction).
You’re a wolves fan complaining about free throws and push off, gee who could that be
You’re a Thunder fan who seemed to know exactly who I was talking about.
Gee, I wonder why that is
wolves fans all bleat the same tune.
Literally every single fanbase (including the majority of Thunder fans) can see that Shai gets away with this shit constantly.
God I could hear her saying it without unmuting
they called that a foul on santos???💀💀💀
I hate how the NBA tells officials to officiate offensive fouls. It’s a stain to the game and no one will ever be able to convince there hasn’t been a massive offensive inflation the past decade+
It’s not a secret. I think the average basketball fan thinks offensive fouls shouldnt exist. So it doesn’t surprise me the NBA changed college has done the same thing pretty much.
If Shai did this the post would have at least 10k upvotes
Is this irony? 🦋
Hilarious coming from a Thunder flair lmao.
That move was patented in Canada and not Jamal Murray.
I would have been fine with a no-call here but defensive foul is crazy 💀💀💀
How can you be an announcer and just ignore that all the contact was Murray fully extending his arm and pushing off there was no defensive contract
Bc Doris is fucking cheeks as an announcer
No one, and I repeat, no one is worse than Doris Burke as an announcer, and I have to listen to the gsw announcers
She must be a relative to a higher up or they’re just scared to fire a woman from a highly publicized sports job because there’s NO WAY anybody at ESPN/ABC can listen to a quarter of her schtick and say “wow, she’s good at this!”.
So you watched NBA today we got youre MO
The officiating is a joke
So is the commentary. The NBA has become impossible to watch until the playoffs
Gets the continuation when he used his arm to push off and then to shoot. Insane officiating.
If I was Murray I’d contest the call. Seriously. Reffing is hard and he had a bad angle, you’re helping society by waving off the foul
Doris Burke is simply the worst.
She always gotta spin it into some kind of narrative.
She picks which team she wants to win and shapes the whole story of the game around that team while painting the other team as the villains. She would be fantastic as a some team’s mega homer color commentator. Truly awful on national broadcasts though.
Except Lebron. She ALWAYS has to glaze Lebron no matter what.
Well she always picks the Lakers. That’s who she should go work for.
And always picks whoever’s playing the Warriors. She wishcasts the game and refuses to come off her narratives when the game doesn’t go according to her wishes
She always has to a paint a fuckin picture with her philosophical tangents
It’s a shame because I feel like she used to be pretty good, and has totally fallen off. Can’t seem to hide bias or commentate with the flow of the game at all anymore
While I agree, D Wade is skyrocketing up the rankings, especially when he’s with SVG.
“Back in my days as a player..”, “Back in my days as a coach..”. Feels like we forgot that broadcasting is real job that people have a passion for, but NBA gives that job to retired players/coaches I guess. No wonder the ratings are down.
She was glazing Jokic earlier in the game and was talking about how he starts looking down court even before getting the rebound. As she was saying this, they were showing a replay of Jokic getting a rebound and not looking down court at all.
Someone said she’s so long-winded that by the time she finishes explaining a play 3 other plays have occurred.
But she dribbled in heels a decade ago!
These refs man
Constantly outdoing themselves.
Don’t blame the refs. The league tells them what they do and do not want called. They just go out and fulfill the leagues wishes.
How tf was that not an offensive foul?
I can’t watch this league anymore. Games are legitimately rigged. Or they have the worst officiating in any sport.
I’m with you and have stopped watching. It’s a YouTube highlights sport anyways, right?
I too, like to go to subreddits I’m not interested in just to tell people I don’t partake in what that sub is about.
You never watched.
Lucky for you, you don’t have to. Thanks for letting everyone know though
Refs are pretty bad at rigging the game if that’s their goal then because nuggets lost this
What has happened to this game?? Down is now up I don’t get it anymore.
It is really bad. Like four or five clear push-offs were not called the Lakers game today
Like a thousand percent clear but they just don’t call it I don’t know why It’s clearly a foul
Jaylyn Browns only go to move is using his elbow to dig into the defender, and pushing off. I seen that egregious shit today. At some point, they just started letting shit go. They pick and choose when to follow the rules and it makes the league super lame to watch. Its like every game I watch, I expect some bs to swing it in the other teams favor. Depending on who they want to win that night.
Him and Tatum think that that’s basketball… Drive hard into the chest of the defender They body up, I put my forearm and push him as hard as I can backwards while stepping back
It’s an offensive foul every day of the week I don’t understand what we’re watching… Eventually we’re going to probably get a Boston OKC final and I’m not even going to watch Just fuck that
Shout out to the guys who don’t push off and play ethical basketball
The chicken wing is fine but that was a whole ass extension no way the refs don’t catch that
these refs have money on the nuggets lol
REFBALLLLLLL
She makes my ears bleed….i just mute if she is on the call.
It blows my mind that player on offense are allowed to full on shove dudes out of the way to make space
NBA refs are the worst. What a Moronic call.
If they did a skit about bad NBA announcers and simply showed Doris’ commentary, people would criticize it as too ridiculous.
the officiating on offensive fouls are worse than tanking but because that doesn’t affect gambling as much as tanking silver doesn’t care
She has always been bad imo
The amount of calls we see on obvious no calls is the biggest issue with reffing imo. Just let them play ball for the love of god
how they gonna rig the outcome if they dont put role players in foul trouble early?
Doris is a moron and always has been
Offensive player pushing off with off arm is my least favorite thing about the NBA. Not sure what a defender can do if the offensive can create space in this manner.
I thought only SGA got these calls?
Letting Canadians play was a mistake
A Canadian literally invented this stupid game 😭
One of the good ones
Basically every star player does this multiple times per game
Refs been in nuggets pocket all game
this type of officiating is so bad for the league. Much worse than players not taking allstar games seriously or switching teams every summer. Hopefully the media at some point decides to highlight this issue.
The dumb Jokic glaze seems to have spread over to the other Nuggets players aswell
Nah not the same level lol, Doris will just go on 5 minutes glaze rant about Jokic during the game for no reason lol
She does the same thing with Tatum, Steph, Lebron
Always been that way
I think this is just Doris Burke being herself more than anything. 0 actual knowledge and just rotates various media driven buzzwords and set sentences.
Has to be bottom commentator in the league.
They have set sentences for all the main players for every team.
This. She has obnoxious commentary about every star player.
People are either ignorant on purpose or they are watching her for the first time (which I doubt is the case).
Since that play in ring in 2023
And then cried to the ref causing himself to get a tech and cry even more
Gosh just play the fucking game you dorks damn idk why they all have to cry every time something doesn’t go their way
If I didn’t have my glasses on, I would’ve thought that was SGA.
It looks like the initial contact is from Gui when he briefly grabs/hooks onto Murray’s left arm and then Murray pushes off with the same arm. It is a bit of a soft call but I’m not too upset by it; the only thing is I don’t get how this is a continuation when he was fouled before he went up with the shot.
Just not a serious league whatsoever with calls like this.
Slurrin’ Doris still calling games. Will it ever end?
idk what’s worse, if the games are rigged or the refs are just that bad… it’s constantly horrible reffing and i just can’t tell what it is
This is why people hate the current NBA
What the fuck
It’s cool that you can just stiff arm somebody and who you stiff armed gets called for a foul
I’m fine with the push off, I guess, but I struggle to see anything resembling a defensive foul there
Did they not review this and get it overturned? Not watching the game, but unless they were out of challenges this was a miss to not get it overturned.
refs flipped a switch in the 3rd quarter lol this league is wwe
Defender hooks Murray’s left arm
in any level of hoops a ref is not rewarding you for running next to the guy. move your feet, stay in front, or get beat
If Peyton Pritchard can get away with it, …
The game I really want to love is not what it was. I hate it
I refuse to watch any game with Doris Burke
Bonjoooour
the push off is barely ever called an offensive foul any more, I was in shock when I saw it called in the Lakers/Celtics game tonight I had to rewind and watch it a couple of times.
This is a crazy foul call but, to be nitpicky, that arm is not fully extended. it’s not even straight
sometimes I can’t take NBA serious anymore
Just to clarify, you’re saying this is a “fully extended push off”? Doesn’t a push off usually require there being enough contact to… y’know… push off of someone? It’s a soft-ass foul that shouldn’t have been called, and Doris Burke is a dumbass, don’t get me wrong, I agree with you on those points. But acting like this is a foul on Murray is also stupid.

Absorbs the tea on the counter with a sponge. 🧽
Lol after watching the lakers game…. This push off was nothing and absolutely deserve a foul call!!
This game is so much more fun to play than to watch…
complete horseshit… and is “extend the arm” actually in the rulebook, or just a guideline? It leaves a lot of room for a full-on forearm shiver to initiate contact and shove the defender away.
Who is watching the Indiana Pacers right now….crazy game🥶🥶🥶🥶
All star whistle, when you are canadian they let you do it!
he got that SGA whistle
Murray getting away with an obvious extension
Nuggets fans: Shai Gilgeous-Alexander
No one can whine like GSW
that’s pretty funny considering murray purposely fouled so he could whine
I mean thunder fans really shouldn’t even have anything to say considering they have Inspector Gadget on their team.
that’s definitely the argument being made here
I mean, this one is one is really bad
I see the nuggets flair but fucking come on man at least TRY to be objective
