I TRIED to tell them about him! But alas they don't care about my opinion.

So freakin sad that the refs didn’t give the initial flagrant foul. Jokic probably doesn’t retaliate if so. Also, Morris was playing that up

Jokic gave him what he deserved. Probably is going to end up as a 1 game suspension for Jokic though since he rocked him into next Tuesday.
Look at him when he was on the ground. He looks up as if to say, “are they watching”. I think he was trying to make that out to be more than it was to make sure Jokic was ejected.

I don't know man. Having a 7 foot, 250 something pound man ram into you at full force while you're not even paying attention would put anyone on the ground for a good minute.
But who knows? I wouldn't put anything past the Morris twins and their dirty tactics.
my favorite part..is when Bam comes and pushes Jokic ... and he doesn't even move .. I don't like unsportsmanlike actions, but very happy to see a Morris twin get hit

That was my favorite part. Initially Herro is moving towards Jokic but when things get heated he dodges behind the ref. Smart decision. Jokic is listed at 285lbs. Herro at 195lbs.
I’m pretty tired of the little guys getting to do anything they want to the big guys. Refs need to call it even in that way. A foul is a foul is a foul.
How any ref can not call the flagrant foul on Morris' first tackle is beyond me. It's the refs job to protect the players.

I agree. Morris gave him a hard chicken wing to the chest. It's Joker's right to go after him and protect himself. The 2nd guy always gets caught.
You know wide receivers wear padding for shots to the ribs when they are unprotected. I don't blame Jokic for retaliating. NBA should land harder on Morris.
The post-action rolling on the floor seemed a little contrived to me. Reminded me of Wade's "injury" back in 2006, remember the wheel chair? OR Wade trying to get a foul call while lying on the floor holding his eye in game 1 in 2011. I guess that's just part of the "Heat Culture".
Jokic will get suspended and that's fair, but whatever he gets Morris should get too. Jokic just did the exact same thing (blind side body slam with leading forearm bar) that Morris had done to him.
And while I wish no injury on anybody, Morris deserved what he got, and he and other dirty players will think think twice before they try to pull that s*** on Jokic again which is a good thing.
ATL about to be 4-8. Something to keep an eye on as they will probably be open to trades if the worm doesn't turn.
