those calls are so bad. such a gift its not even funny anymore. the reason he's so good at making the "AND 1" is because there's no AND. he never got fouled to begin with. if he did, he would be a lot more off balanced which would cause him to miss those shots a lot more often.

i mean the moment he bumps into his man. thats right he bumps into his man. yet its a foul on the defender. what part of the game is that? i guess its that new part that says "manufactured superstars."
best SG in the league LOL. this league is SOOOOFT

I hate when the offensive player initiates the contact and gets the call. Hate it.

Euro step also contorts the body somewhat and lazy refs mistake that for an impact foul.

He probably would and we'd flipped if he didn't. Trust me. We'd welcome those calls with open arms.

i'm not sure who cut that eurostep off he tried to do towards the end of the half. he didnt know what to do so he just drug his pivot foot like 3 feet. i'm like REF thats a travel call that... nope. call a foul for harden instead.

dough.. YOU would welcome those BOGUS calls. i'm about real basketball over here. you can keep the fake stars over there. sure from time to time do i want my super stars to get a bogus whistle? of course. but why. because the lakers superstars usually get beat to death for no calls so in reality i know they deserve more ft's then they actually get from the start.

see i'm a fan of the game of basketball. more so then a fan of any team, or any player.

i love the game 1st. so when i see an abuse of the rules or a twist of the rules by the nba to make guys look better then they really are at this game. i dont appreciate it. there's a reason kobe has never become a flopper like cp3. he could. but he never did it. why not? think about it..why not flop? because he's from the old guard. you dont do that. you play the game and you beat people with your skill and will. or lose trying.

Because Nash and Howard got superstar calls last season.

No we all would welcome those calls. We welcomed many of those calls when Magic did the same thing in the 80s. He would run into the lane and scream, throw the ball towards the rim and there he is at the line. Now Magic's aren't at the level of Harden's calls but we didn't complain when Earv ended up at the line.

if they're going to foul harden/lin anytime they get beat off the dribble..

...MIGHT AS WELL HACK A DWIGHT and give lin/harden less touch fouls or let the refs call 70 fouls..

for MDA to not utilize this (or any coach) is just stupid.

Kobe, pau, nash all had refs swallow their whistles in anticipation for D12 foul calls.
