    I think Dennis flexed at Green. And that was dumb. That's what got him the T. Watch the full clip BEFORE the one above.

    One of the worst techs I’ve ever seen, it’s the playoffs, you let players jaw a little. That ref needs to be fined. Oh well though, he got some extra rest in the end.

    I don't care if he flexed, too small'ed, and danced a jig in front of him... you can't push a basketball against someone's face and not get immediately tossed.

    f***ing hypocrites... this was their complaint against Sabonis.

    You still want to talk about weaponizing the basketball?

    I’m still mad about this.

    Agree that it’s one of the worst techs I can remember

    Give him his flowers he was absolutely terrific this series: awesome defense, timely shot making, and another ballhandler.

    Littlest guy on the court has become the tough guy on this team.

    That's a different discussion. Dennis was stupid for flexing. Refs suck and should have ejected Green.

    The ejection was crap. Dennis flexed like GS was doing all game. If they ejected Dennis then Green should of been ejected for pushing the ball in his face.

    I do agree with those saying it was stupid but I say it was because he ran directly to Green to do it.

    Either way, he set the tone and he put Curry on his butt all game. Great game over all

    We don’t win this series without him. His defense has been good all year, but I did not know he’d be able to be this effective against the Splash Bros. Even in the games they went off, Dennis made it Tuff

    How is that stupid on Dennis part? The refs protected a bully. He had some balls to confront Green, he saw what he was doing to AD after that play. I think that is reason why the Lakers are so close, they protect each other. I command Dennis for that. Plus him getting ejected had no affect on the game.

    One of the worst calls I’ve seen in over 36 years of watching NBA playoff basketball.
    Inexcusable.

    Honestly I was worried after the ejection: DS/Reaves/Dlo backcourt really had the Warriors messed up on offense and defense. Lucky Rui and Lonnie were ready to step up.

    Yup. That's their mentality on this team. "Next one up".

    I am not sure what you are on about, but you flex towards an opposing player and taunt him in front of the ref, you gonna get a T. The ball thing came after that and in no way was absolving Dennis of taunting.

    Dennis should know better than to put himself in that position. The whole Rich Paul thing surely played into this.

    Dennis would be the first to tell you he shouldn't have done it.

    That was Duncan smiling on the bench 2.0
    NBA refs are crap, we should be used to this.

    Ludicrous. This is a ref who thinks he SHOULD be the star of the game.
