How is Booker bumping on defenders chest who's just standing and hands in the air a foul?

Even on double teams, Booker just need to bump on opponents chest and he will automatically fish a foul.

These calls totally took away Lakers defense as they dont know how to defend without refs calling a foul.

I think these calls are more absurd than what Harden was getting. At least Harden use arm clipping tactics to get a foul.

In today's NBA any athletic player is gonna get the call if he so much as gets breathed on. This isn't new to Booker. Hell,Bron benefited from it in a bunch of games as well. Just the nature of the league. Can't use that as an excuse for our disinterest in competing yesterday.

Yea. umm,, no.... You lose by 30 points not because of the refs. You lose that way when you have no heart or pride.

Was hoping to see a breakdown of the screening they were doing that was freeing up their shooters in the first half as they got out to a huge lead. Looked like a lot of moving/late screens

5 minutes into the game it was evident the Suns had this game. It was as if the Lakers looked down their shorts and their peepees disappeared.

They were clearly dumbfounded at the tenacity and how they were getting punked around. They just couldn't believe the Suns were that good and merely got overwhelmed and shut down like a girl who got ridiculed by her so called closest friends.

Dwight during his first stint with LA was frequently fouled without calls.
