If hardens game relies on fouls he is just not a great player.

This is actually true. Jordan and Hakeem didn’t rely on refs at all, neither did Bird.

Notice Pippen didnt answer the question of how do you as a defender defend a guy that’s allowed to launch himself at you. He blamed GS talking to the refs before hand?
So this dude is allowed to step back and travel and has unlimited landing zone so now there’s no way to contest a jump shot.
This league is pathetic and soft and shame on the media for cheerleading this type of whistle bait play.

It’s not a foul on the defense if the offensive player kicks his legs foward. That rule has been around for 20 years. Harden is kicking his legs foward which is kind of dumb and sure Thompson jumped out foward too a couple of times but they aren’t going to call it if both players are doing it.

This rule was created because of GSW. Flop or not, Klay had 3 fouls, possibly flagrant fouls. Draymond’s was clean.
Rockets better be composed for next game. Let it go. Move on.

Harden’s game is so cheap and annoying to watch. Awful… they’re trying to turn bball into a soccer match

james harden gets away with a lot of bogus calls in the regular season and people criticize the refs for blowing those whistles… and now when hes actually seem like hes getting foul the refs are hesitant to call them… rockets are hard to officiate because theyre a team led by floppers: cp3 and harden…

Exactly,.dudes like Kobe would pump fake, get the guy up and dive into the defenders chest to get the call. To say that, it isnt part of the game is absurd. Fire Silver, he’s fixing games with Stern and Timmay again. Has to be. Or Scottie should RKO and tornado ddt the refs.

So far this playoff
1. +100% respect for Lou Williams for his skills and interview
2. -100% respect from Klay Thompson for his Zaza Pachulia mentallity.
3. Westbrook lol. Great triple double bruhh. You better step up your game or even your Aquaman gonna leave your stupid egotistical ass alone.
4. I really wanna get update on King James’s playoff mode sofa and tv set.
