My main point on why I hate this is because the move that is done to draw the foul is a move that nobody does in a game of basketball. If James Harden was not looking for a chance to draw a foul, he would not be trying to chuck up a running one legged three point one step after a pick and roll. It’s the same as

I realize that the Thunder are the more interesting team to talk about, but I can’t believe there’s not more of an uproar about Harden after last game. He got away with the most obvious push off ever, then talked about “no excuses” right after he answered a question about his poor performance by revealing that he hurt

People would’ve made a movie about his sticktoitiveness and passion for the game 20 years ago. Now we laugh because someone with millions already in the bank loves the sport he plays and doesn’t care about maximizing his money.

I agree, people will laugh at his 4/18 in the fourth and ignore the fact that he carried his whole team the first three quarters. There was no one else to make plays with or without him on the court, Oladipo was turning it over every time he dribbled and no other ball handler could do anything. He really just ran out

Did you even watch the game? He literally carried them through the first three quarters, and every time he sat the Rockets went on a huge run.

Loria’s main reason for trying to sell the team to Jeter is for that sweet, sweet gift basket he’ll get on his way out.

This is just guesswork from me, but I would say its due to the fact that the impacts of errors on the offensive side get split up between the nine batters. If a batter gets a ball into play and causes an error every 15 games, it won’t make a ton of difference to their stats, but if every spot in the lineup did that

Regardless, we are talking about convicting someone of a felony and potential extended jail time over a prank. If there was some lasting damage to Johnson it’d be different, but a sore neck and a pulled groin from beating the shit out of the guy who did it to you doesn’t mean Thompson needs to spend years in prison.

They’ll never do it, but the obvious answer here is to play a zone when he’s in. That way you can hide him in the paint, let the wings handle the pick and roll action and let everything come at him instead of making him move. That way you can justify keeping him in for offensive purposes.

Jesus, that alley oop that he corralled off the backboard was just nuts. And I don’t think I’ve ever seen someone poke the ball away from a post player holding the ball away with one hand. The Greek Freak earned his nickname this year, that’s for sure.

Not even a Celtics fan, but I would love to see Melo get traded to Boston and play for Brad Stevens.

Regroup and come back later with better execution if you want my star.

Lawn games arent supposed to be actual sports that will make you break a sweat. Volleyball and badminton need to off the list, and croquet needs to be way higher, criminally underrated.

ENOUGH. Russell Westbrook is the goddamn MVP, case closed.

You don’t try and put out a dumpster fire. Way easier to just let it burn out completely.

Here’s to hoping that he gets elected just so he gets to run for re-election with the slogan “And The Flame Returns”.

Nobody ever gives George much credit for those sick reflexes.

The post that I commented on was presenting reasons why they deserved it over the other teams. Get off me, funny name.

Forcing the ball to have absolutely no spin on his jump shot is apparently doing a number on his shoulder.
