What I don't get is why the referees are going into the tank, for PHOENIX?! Either LA club, I get it, but Phoenix deserves the 'Nazi refs in 'Victory' treatment why exactly?
Did you just start watching the NBA? Defenders grab players all the time like that to prevent a shot attempt on a fastbreak. In fact Booker grabbed Harden in away to make sure he wouldn't dangerously fall.
Eddie Johnson saying in 80s you could punch and kick players and not get flagrant. So that should apply to Booker as well right?
Can go back and look/assign flagrants Can go back and look at clear path fouls Can go back and look whether it was a 2 or 3 (toe on the line or not) Cannot look to see who last touched the ball Cannot look to see if ball went in basket
Because he wrapped around Harden. He wasn't wacking him. Defenders wrap around offensive players in the fastbreak all the time to intentionally foul and do it in manner to make sure the offensive player doesn't fall awkwardly.
