Can’t remember the details, but he evidently wronged some dudes who weren’t going to let it go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abdcskins Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 Definitely too many bull**** 3 point shooting fouls. The stat they showed - 1,091 last year compared to 196 in in the 2000-2001 season - is very telling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you happen to have that stat? Still, that discrepancy is too large to simply be chalked up to more players shooting 3 point shots. Clearly players are intentionally trying to draw fouls. The kicking of legs and flops really bother me, almost as bad as soccer flopping but not quite as dramatic or absurd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was the first I had heard of that rule change. And I welcome it with open arms. Can't wait to see all the crying by a very specific group of players now lol.

It only make sense that fouls on those shots would go up, not to mention they'd be more contested in the current version of the game. And I've agreed that the rule needed to be tweaked. I also said poor defensive play should not be rewarded. Edited October 12, 2021 by The Evil Genius Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one is saying that the number of fouls wouldn't go up since attempts went up, but they didn't go up at even close to the same rate.

CRobi21 Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 Now the league has to address guys flopping everytime they're being backed down in the paint. Acting like Shaq is posting them up.

Ball Security Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 Suns decide not to give Ayton the max, but give Bridges 4/90 and Shamet 4/43. I like keeping Bridges, but they are jeopardizing something special they have with Booker/Ayton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
