Toronto Raptors guard Kyle Lowry was irate over a non-call early in the third quarter. He wanted the game officials to know that he was smacked in the face, and that they should've called a foul.
But if there was a foul in the play, it should be on him.

The All-Star guard was going for a loose ball when it was tapped by Philadelphia 76ers guard JJ Redick away from him. Although there was obviously no physical contact between both players, Lowry went down to the floor while holding his face.
To completely sell the act, Lowry came rushing to one of the referees to plead his case.
Sure enough, that play will be reviewed by Shaqtin' A Fool to see if it's hilarious enough to be in their next episode.
Lowry has been inconsistent throughout the series with the Sixers, something that seems to happen constantly in the playoffs. With that said, instead of flopping, maybe he should start acting and playing someone who's worthy of an All-Star nod.
At this point, playing great in the playoffs should be Lowry's priority, as he's one of the main reasons why the Raptors have had disappointing postseason runs over the past couple of years.
