Also the Durant clip where he hurt his leg and they kept on playing was consider "unsportsmanlike" because the Raptors fans (the opposing team) cheered when he got hurt and Duran ( a top 3 player in the NBA) ended up having torn his achilles on that play which knocked him out of the entire next season
Flagrant 1 fouls are essentially yellow cards. They’d get a flagrant 1 for purposefully fouling without attempting to play the ball - so stuff like grabbing the guy from behind as he jumps. Two F1 in a game and you get ejected. Flagrant 2 is basically a red card and results in an immediate ejection. Throwing punches, pushing refs, etc... There are additional rules about how many flagrant fouls a player can get in a season. Once they hit those numbers, any additional flagrants result in multi-game suspensions.
Most of these you have to watch basketball to understand. Pushing is fine but they get angry when you do it in the back when they are in the air because they dont have control and you can get hurt. Also u can set a pick which is used to create separation but u have to be set to do it, u cant be moving and you have to be straight up u cant throw your shoulder into someone
Bobby Portis is a defensive and rebounding beast. He played at Arkansas in college, my home state. He was the same way in college. He comes from a rough background and plays with a chip on his shoulder. He’s goes all out all the time. He’s got that edge you want on a NBA team. Love your channel blokes!
You guys need to watch a compilation of Steven Adams. He’s known as the strongest guy in the NBA, and he’s an absolute treasure of a human. He’s a legend.
You want to see Unsportsman behavior Malice in the Palace. Off the chart, OMG, whatever, you want to call it but it's a MUST watch. I don't watch the NBA but when this happened and they showed a clip for the first time on ESPN, my mouth dropped open and my eyes widened and I whispered holy s**t.
6:46 the reason this was considered unsportsmanlike wasn’t the injury itself but when Durant was leaving the court with injury the opposing crowd was cheering
Surprised to not see the Malice at the Palace in this. Nothing is less sportsman than players going up into the stands -- even if they had good reason. That's a proper brawl at a basketball game, you might enjoy that one!
There is a certain element of contact, but no element of hitting. Closest thing to basketball being a "contact" sport is picks. Classically, basketball is set up with 2 big/talls down low, 2 wings somewhere in the middle on "the wings", and one taking point and directing his team mates and getting them moving, with the defense either playing zone much the same way or defending man on man. The most bread and butter pick play and something you learn day one is a point guard at the top with the ball. A wing will float up and stand in "the lane". The point guard will then drive around the pick, hopefully drawing the PG's defender right into the path of the picker, thus forcing all other defenders on that side of the ball consider 2 players instead of one. I played mostly point guard for probably 8 or 9 years, so I've got 5 dependable plays that will likely happen. 1. I flick the ball back to the picker for a free mid range jumper/his drive to the basket as the defender he just picked made it around him in an attempt to cut me off (honestly my philosophy is to just provide over. You and your team mate just swap defensive responsibilities for an average for 5-8 seconds max and rendering picks unable to be run. A wing should be able to guard a point and vice versa, while a winger should also be able to slow down a big in a pinch/vice versa. Bigs don't travel that for north and guards shouldn't come down that way to often for those mismatches to happen) leaving my winger open. 2. The big will try and cut me off and I'll drop it under/over/around him to my now free big man. 3. The far side big is decent so he comes over so the teammate I just passed to needs to do the same thing I just did for him for our opposite big. 4. Or, I have space for a jumper, a step back/fade away 3, or 5. since I had wheels a cutting drive to the hoop/around everyone for a layup or go even further for a reverse layup. Should everything fail to that point, either pass it to someone or dribble it all the way around and start over. So rarely a much smaller guy might just run into a brick wall, or they might stop just in time to make it legal but it's almost a running collision. Then there are times where the pick is moving (which is not legal) and a collision happens. The other instance is during charges. If a player is driving to the basket, a player might move in front of him and stand there attempting to draw a charging foul. A player can't knock you over to score, but you also can't just move in front of someone either. So depending on who "had the right of way" or was stationary, and offensive or defensive charging foul is called. There are situations like posting up (leaning on opponents mostly down low to create positions and angles) and defending there certain pushing/posting/touching is allowed and/or let go, but "hitting" guys isn't allowed.
4:05 is an example of a pick not being executed well by the offense (I assume it wasn't called because I heard no whistle and it seems that the shot was taken and legally missed before play stopped. Any other day this is a moving violation, illegal pick, and a foul). This particular play is probably the 2nd most common pick play you'll see run, particularly if your wingers are great shooters/your PG either isn't a good shooter or is not a runner/cutter (see someone like Derrick Rose for a cutting PG. While an all around player and top shooter, his most dominate skill was his explosive drive to the basket). Or if he is a runner, a quick give an go is a good option. 10:19. Here's an example of the charging I was talking about. In this situation (a fast break with the defender a step behind) what the guy in black is in theory thinking is he'll jump in front of him, and get the charge from the offensive player leaping into him, when in reality every single time the play from behind leaps into THEM and gets a sort of dumb and sort of cheap blocking foul. Had he been standing there and the offense ran INTO him, that would have been charging. If you want to see the legal bits of contact in basketball, Shaquille O'Neal is probably the best to see because which he was extremely elegant in some of his moves, his sheer weight and the way his body was built, he was born to play as on a basketball low block. You'll see every trick in the book. I recommend another video on the one person I'd chose to built any basketball team around, Yao Ming. He was a rookie in Shaq's prime, and they had legendary battles because of Yao's sheer skill and intelligence and well rounded play. Might be the only player Shaq every outright apologized to after playing him and respected sincerely and whole heatedly afterwards. Most guys he'll say he respects but still end with an I've got a better spin move or I've got better touch off the glass ball busting quip where Yao is treated in the same way a religious figure like the Pope or Dali Lama. Honestly, I could put him on Shaq and tell him to not allow a single point and to grab literally every single rebound while on the court or I could have him defend Pistol Pete Marovich and have him spotting up 3's I'd be comfortable betting he's the best player that night, he was that good and that a well rounded basketball player. A Titan with ballerina feet and a surgeon's touch.
There’s a lot of contact in basketball, such as screens/picks mostly post plays (below the rim). Aggressive defense there’s surprisingly a-lot of legal contact in basketball
Do the "Pacers / Pistons Brawl (2004) Original " aka malice in the palace. It started off with a brawl between the 2 teams, then a fan threw a cup of beer and all hell broke loose. Artest just ran into the stands and started beating fans and others followed. Mayhem ensued. It was classic.
I am surprised that one isn't on here... if they want examples of the worst and biggest moments in American sports... 2 of them happened in Detroit and the other was in Cleveland... Football, Hockey and Basketball.... Malice in the Palace, Bottlegate and blood on the ice. Those were the biggest.... To really grasp bottlegate and blood on the ice... you would have to show some a couple of clips of previous things. But I would love to see their reaction to those moments
If you guys do Malice in the Palace you HAVE to watch Mike Korzemba's video breakdown so you don't miss any details. It's a crazy fight and if you're not familiar with the context you might miss a lot
A team can choose to be a man down, but they can never be forced to be. If there are only five players left on a team that haven't fouled out, another player can't be foul out.
the most infamous incident was dubbed Malice in the Palace in a game between the Detroit Pistons and Indiana Pacers. but this brawl got way out of hand
You mention being there for tour teammates. Look at NFL “sticking up for your teammates” moments by Coleman production highlights! Basically don’t ever touch a quarterback
Aww I was hoping the Ron Artest (aka Meta World Peace) fight would be in this video. Lol Now that was crazy. Way better than any of these videos since it also involves the crowd. They actually called the game early.
Patrick Beverley was the guy who took out Westbrook, torn meniscus in his right knee, during game 2 of the Western Conference Playoffs in 2013, with a similar dive at his knees (12:20) Westbrook would miss the remainder of the playoffs, and most of the summer. OKC beat the Houston Rockets that series, but would lose the following series vs Memphis Grizzlies.
honestly the one in this video looked pretty innocent to me. Just playing hard and going for the ball. He was already on his way down he can't stop that momentum.
In the video that you couldn’t tell what happened injury wise, Kevin Durant tore his Achilles and had to sit out the entire 2019/2020 season. That happened in the NBA finals the season before. The unsportsmanlike part was the Raptors fans cheering on his injury but it was good that the players for the Raptors made their displeasure at their fans cheering that a player was hurt known. If you watch the close up slow motion of his lower leg during that play you see the ripple of muscle and tendon the moment it happened.
Kind of pointless to get in the middle of two players fighting when the top of your head is even with their shoulders. Kind of makes you a bit ineffective, y'know?
Love the channel. Finding myself watching more and more of your vids. Two suggestions even though I'm sure you don't need them. 1. Eminem - Darkness (Really listen to the lyrics. He raps much slower. When Em raps slow he wants you to listen to the words/message) 2. Any John Mulaney skit for comedic relief. That's all. Keep up the great reactions. You guys are great!
I think Basketball is better highlighted by individual players accomplishments than a video covering multiple player-moments. The "Making the Case" video series by Clayton Crowley is really outstanding, particularly Tim Duncan's and Michael Jordan's videos. Check them out!
In American sports your teammates will get mad at your if you’re get up without them helping you up, most time the teammates yell “stay down, stay down” or they sprint over to help them up
The one where you thought the guy twisted his knee, that’s Kevin Durant and he ruptured his Achilles in his right leg and then the crowd cheered when he went down, it was in the finals and he is one of the best players in the world
Grayson Allen is one of the dirtiest players in basketball. And flagrant 1 is like a yellow card. Two F1's and you get ejected. Flagrant 2 like a red card, immediate ejection.
On offense dribblers will tend to use their offhand to push off the opponent... defenders are allowed to give that same resistance back... lighter shoves are definitely harder to identify as fouls
Flagrant 1 fouls don't get you kicked out (unless you already have a technical or flagrant 1 foul committed earlier in the game) but flagrant 2 fouls are automatic ejections and likely fines and/or suspensions. Think of a technical foul being like a yellow card, a flagrant 2 foul's a red card, and flagrant 1's I suppose like an orange card if there were such a thing.
A lot of these are starting with "just a foul" which then turns into a bigger incident when one or both players take offense. In any case, the rule is essentially that the moving player running into someone is in the wrong. When both players are moving, it becomes a judgement call of who impinged on the other. But.... keep in mind that just like soccer, there is a fair bit of acting going on to draw fouls. Player definitely play up the contact to make it look worse than it was. Also, keep in mind that fouling is done tactically - professional fouls, to break up a play, just like in soccer.
Blokes, Fouls in BasketB are very similar to futbol. You can work for positioning and bump shoulders. Who was there first (feet planted somtimes)? Very general but...
Oh you can't even yell at a ref in the NBA without getting ejected, but those guys aren't trying to hurt the refs, they're trying to get to the other guy, and the refs for the sport put themselves directly in the middle of fights!!
so flagrant one is a technical free throw and the ball. a flagrant 2 is automatic ejection. A player who receives 2 flagrant 1's get ejected Not to mention the league will then review the incident and can hand out fines and/or suspensions.
Just FYI; If they put their hands on a ref, they'll be out of the game and fined. If they did it repeatedly, or actually like attack/hurt a ref, they'll be suspended for many games, fined HEAVILY, and hell, maybe even a suit from the Refs Union. Idk really cause it just doesn't happen. Refs might get bumped and shoved when they throw themselves in the middle of some drama, but a player attacking a ref is something I don't think I've seen in the NBA or NCAA. Im sure it's probably happened, but I've never seen it.
These are things that, if they had gone another way, it could've ended the career of the guy getting fouled!!! And in the NBA, you can literally be ejected for pissing a referee off, so there was probably more help than hurt going on in the tussles you saw.
Getting hit in the air is the worst thing you can do in basketball. The main issue being these players are jumping high as hell. Like they have a good 3-5 ft off the ground depending on their height. An awkward landing can be anything from a spanged ankle to a broken leg or even a torn ACL. Worst types of dirty plays in my book.
@2:15 This is one thing I’ve always said and one of the things I’ve absolutely never understood. Like how the announcer says “The games over with and it’s one of those unwritten rules”. Well these guys are getting paid millions of dollars to go out there and to, one, play the game until the last second ticks off the clock, and two, entertain the fans. Also, if you don’t want the man to take a wide open 3 when, and as the commentator is saying, I guess trying to justify what the defender did “When the game is over” then get over there and do what they pay you to do and play defense.. I mean dude could have been 3 points from a double/triple double. If it was me in that position, no matter the time left in the game and I’m a 3 away from that or I’m 3 away from like my career high, I’m taking that shot. Cause it isn’t his fault that when the game is in the last few minutes and the other team is down by 30, that they decide to just give up even more. Like I get paid to play ball and that’s exactly what I’m going to do until that final buzzer goes off, plain and simple. But the game today, and sadly not just basketball, but almost all sports have gotten so soft these days that it’s almost not entertaining anymore. But I’d much rather have the guy who took the shot on my team than the sore loser who got mad and pushed him down for doing what he’s paid to do on my team. It’s always aggravated me that they think just cause the “game is over” that they’re expected to just not shoot when you leave a good shooter wide open in the corner and refuse to come guard him until you see him already shooting the ball. Also, if there was more than 24 seconds on the clock, (I think the shot clock is 24 seconds lol, I kinda forgot) they would have had to shoot the ball eventually anyways, and even if it wasn’t, oh well, get u0 on your man and guard him and he wouldn’t be wide open for the shot to begin with. I’ll always take the side of the man shooting the ball before I will who had no self control and just shoves someone for not following these so called “unwritten rules”. The reason they’re unwritten is cause they’re not a rule to begin with, so he doesn’t have to just hold the ball, he can shoot as he damn well pleases if there is still time on that clock…
Most of those fouls weren't considered flagrant in the 80s and 90s other than a blatant undercut, and that was a technical. You had to do it twice to get thrown out.
What happened with Kevin Durant was the Toronto Raptors fans started cheering loudly when he tore his Achilles, which most would consider out of character for Canadian fans. Even the Raptor players were telling the fans to stop.
The way that fouling is charged in basketball as far as I know is that body contact can happen but it can’t be something that physically affects the play, IE shoving someone in the body or hitting someone’s arm. You can touch the ball but can’t touch any other part of the body with your hand. Most fouls called are slight hits to the arms or hands so I have no idea how these players thought they could get away with fully body checking someone.
You guys should react to the malice at the palace fight
Please do!!!!
Oh YES!
You read my mind
DO IT! DO IT! DDDOOOOOOOOOO ITTTTTT!
I'd suggest watching Mike Korzemba's video so you get the whole back story and all the details that you'll probably miss by just watching alone
Also the Durant clip where he hurt his leg and they kept on playing was consider "unsportsmanlike" because the Raptors fans (the opposing team) cheered when he got hurt and Duran ( a top 3 player in the NBA) ended up having torn his achilles on that play which knocked him out of the entire next season
Yeah he ripped his achilles tendon.
It's KD tho, I get why they did it
KD ruined the NBA when he went to Golden State. If anyone deserved that it was him
@@Drescher1984 you can see it happen as you watch his right leg, kinda unsettling
Flagrant 1 fouls are essentially yellow cards. They’d get a flagrant 1 for purposefully fouling without attempting to play the ball - so stuff like grabbing the guy from behind as he jumps. Two F1 in a game and you get ejected.
Flagrant 2 is basically a red card and results in an immediate ejection. Throwing punches, pushing refs, etc...
There are additional rules about how many flagrant fouls a player can get in a season. Once they hit those numbers, any additional flagrants result in multi-game suspensions.
"It's Harden again, he just looks trouble this guy..."
Every NBA Fan: "Bloody hell he's the worst"
The absolute worst!!
Id throw Greyson Aleen in there as well. I can't watch the Grizzlys because he just such a douchebag
@@IonDragonz he’s toned it down this season, hasn’t done much, and he’s become a legitimately good rotation player
No NBA fan is saying "Bloody hell"
Don’t worry he’ll be gone soon !
Most of these you have to watch basketball to understand. Pushing is fine but they get angry when you do it in the back when they are in the air because they dont have control and you can get hurt. Also u can set a pick which is used to create separation but u have to be set to do it, u cant be moving and you have to be straight up u cant throw your shoulder into someone
Pushing someone while in the air can lead to serious injury that’s why the players get mad when an opponent does it.
Bobby Portis is a defensive and rebounding beast. He played at Arkansas in college, my home state. He was the same way in college. He comes from a rough background and plays with a chip on his shoulder. He’s goes all out all the time. He’s got that edge you want on a NBA team. Love your channel blokes!
You guys need to watch a compilation of Steven Adams. He’s known as the strongest guy in the NBA, and he’s an absolute treasure of a human. He’s a legend.
Yall need to have another drink tons of beer and react together as Office Drunk Blokes!!!
can be the PM show LOL
More NBA --- thanks guys! -Dunks of the Decade maybe
Basketball is absolutely a contact sport lol
You want to see Unsportsman behavior Malice in the Palace. Off the chart, OMG, whatever, you want to call it but it's a MUST watch. I don't watch the NBA but when this happened and they showed a clip for the first time on ESPN, my mouth dropped open and my eyes widened and I whispered holy s**t.
Good job lad's. Check out basketball team attacks the crowd. Bill Burr does a great stand up bit about the whole thing. Keep up the good work 😎
5:10 mutual respect right after tripping each other lmaoo
6:46 the reason this was considered unsportsmanlike wasn’t the injury itself but when Durant was leaving the court with injury the opposing crowd was cheering
Last night I watched 11 vids in a row and today I've already on number 5
McDude OW cheers 👍🏻
The Kevin Durant injury was his achilles.
Ya, torn Achilles.
Surprised to not see the Malice at the Palace in this. Nothing is less sportsman than players going up into the stands -- even if they had good reason. That's a proper brawl at a basketball game, you might enjoy that one!
11:31 Steven Adams (#12) is the best guy at breaking up fights lol.
As a fan and a Detroiter, y’all gotta watch the malice at the palace.
You’ve gotta watch the worst mlb fights!!! 60 people rushing the field, it’s great!! 😂😂
Best college basketball Arena atmospheres would be great. People go nuts! Its awesome.

Best Dunks would be awesome too!

Great stuff guys...look at MLB baseball bench-clearing brawls to see teams coming to the aid of one of their own!
You should react to Malice in the Palace. Epic Brawl in the NBA. Even Bill Burr talks about it in one of his Stand Up Specials
I've been kneed in the thigh while playing bball...and yes it hurts like hell.
Y'all need to react to "Malice in the Palace." Biggest fight in the history of the NBA. Even fans were involved.
You guys should do a greatest dunks compilation
or some And 1 streetball stuff
A team can choose to be a man down, but they can never be forced to be. If there are only five players left on a team that haven't fouled out, another player can't be foul out.

I really hope you guys check out more nba vids. Crowd reactions, fights, and best dunks are good videos to check out
Devin O Olmstead oh there will be plenty 👍🏻
You guys should react to some more NBA compilations
You mention being there for tour teammates. Look at NFL “sticking up for your teammates” moments by Coleman production highlights! Basically don’t ever touch a quarterback
Also the Durant one he tore his Achilles
You gotta check out "The Malice at the Palace", fans and players fighting in the stands

Need more NBA

Kevin Durent tore his Achilles that day.
Watch the worse injuries in the NBA. It’s brutal and watch the “don’t touch my bro” moments in the nba
Odd video, most of these weren't really examples of "bad sportsmanship". There are some better YT vids that show actual clips.
Yeah I was expecting to see Metta elbow on Harden, some Rasheed Wallace shennanigans, and some better cheap shots. This video was pretty tame
You guys are awesome
A lot of the refs in the NBA rely on the players to break up any skirmishes usually because the refs are about half the size of the players lol
Kind of pointless to get in the middle of two players fighting when the top of your head is even with their shoulders. Kind of makes you a bit ineffective, y'know?
Love the channel. Finding myself watching more and more of your vids. Two suggestions even though I'm sure you don't need them.

You're confusing James Harden with Patrick Beverly haha
You guys should react to the Malice at the Palace. Probably the worst NBA fight out there
Please please please react to motocross. It's is absolutely the hardest sport in the world and it is incredible to see what stuff those guys can do.
The one where you thought the guy twisted his knee, that’s Kevin Durant and he ruptured his Achilles in his right leg and then the crowd cheered when he went down, it was in the finals and he is one of the best players in the world
Durant tore his Achilles I think. He missed all of last season and is just now recovering.
GO Blazers. American BBall is the best damn sport..this brings me great pleasure
React to the Detroit Pistons “Bad Boys” of the late 1980s.
You want to see the absolute worst of the NBA, you have to watch the original footage of the Malice at the Palace. It's just fucking bananas.
Grayson Allen is one of the dirtiest players in basketball. And flagrant 1 is like a yellow card. Two F1's and you get ejected. Flagrant 2 like a red card, immediate ejection.
y’all should react to old school nba fights
Any nba fights for that matter
On offense dribblers will tend to use their offhand to push off the opponent... defenders are allowed to give that same resistance back... lighter shoves are definitely harder to identify as fouls
Flagrant 1 fouls don't get you kicked out (unless you already have a technical or flagrant 1 foul committed earlier in the game) but flagrant 2 fouls are automatic ejections and likely fines and/or suspensions. Think of a technical foul being like a yellow card, a flagrant 2 foul's a red card, and flagrant 1's I suppose like an orange card if there were such a thing.
You should react to the (Legion Of Boom). One of if not the best defense in NFL history.
flagrant 1 is unnecessary contact between opponents and flagrant 2 is excessive and more serious contact between opponents.
A lot of these are starting with "just a foul" which then turns into a bigger incident when one or both players take offense. In any case, the rule is essentially that the moving player running into someone is in the wrong. When both players are moving, it becomes a judgement call of who impinged on the other. But.... keep in mind that just like soccer, there is a fair bit of acting going on to draw fouls. Player definitely play up the contact to make it look worse than it was.
Also, keep in mind that fouling is done tactically - professional fouls, to break up a play, just like in soccer.
You can see Kevin Durant tearing his Achilles heel on the replay at 6:34 . Look at his right calf.
1 - Good eye, and 2 - Yikes, shouldn't have looked. That's f'in horrible.
@@mfree80286 I saw it live when it happened (June 2019). I'll never forget Scotiabank Arena booing him for moment there.
You're right, Harden suuucksss
Blokes,
Fouls in BasketB are very similar to futbol. You can work for positioning and bump shoulders. Who was there first (feet planted somtimes)? Very general but...
Oh you can't even yell at a ref in the NBA without getting ejected, but those guys aren't trying to hurt the refs, they're trying to get to the other guy, and the refs for the sport put themselves directly in the middle of fights!!
I agree with Alvex, react to “Malice at the Palace!” Today’s NBA are Girl Scouts compared to when Michael Jordan played.
Malice in the palace is a must!
Burr was spot on, too. "They came up there!" Taught that dude a valuable lesson
Bro Michael Jordan retired in 2003, the Malice at the Palace happened in 2004.
Basketball is considered a contact sport
Good stuff!
so flagrant one is a technical free throw and the ball. a flagrant 2 is automatic ejection.
A player who receives 2 flagrant 1's get ejected
Not to mention the league will then review the incident and can hand out fines and/or suspensions.
The fact that basketball isn’t considered a contact sport these days is sad.
If you watch basketball during the 80s and 90s, it is a completely different game-very physical.
@@hrussell9677 I know- I’m jealous
the kevin durant one, he blew out his achilles
Yeah if you look in the second slo-mo clip you can even see his calf rippling from when it exploded 🤢
Ya’ll should check out flopping in the NBA. You’d think they would have more pride, but they don’t.
Basketball is a contact sport. Setting a screen is legal, but you can't initiate contact. The trick is getting the other guy to run into you
Just FYI; If they put their hands on a ref, they'll be out of the game and fined.
If they did it repeatedly, or actually like attack/hurt a ref, they'll be suspended for many games, fined HEAVILY, and hell, maybe even a suit from the Refs Union.
Idk really cause it just doesn't happen. Refs might get bumped and shoved when they throw themselves in the middle of some drama, but a player attacking a ref is something I don't think I've seen in the NBA or NCAA. Im sure it's probably happened, but I've never seen it.
These are things that, if they had gone another way, it could've ended the career of the guy getting fouled!!! And in the NBA, you can literally be ejected for pissing a referee off, so there was probably more help than hurt going on in the tussles you saw.
Getting hit in the air is the worst thing you can do in basketball. The main issue being these players are jumping high as hell. Like they have a good 3-5 ft off the ground depending on their height. An awkward landing can be anything from a spanged ankle to a broken leg or even a torn ACL. Worst types of dirty plays in my book.
Beverley acted like he tripped and went for the knee. Trying to injure a player is the worst
You need two flagrant 1 fouls to be ejected... flagrant 2 fouls are automatic ejections when deemed so
Flagrant 1 is like a yellow card and 2 is like a red.
Exactly
Malice in palace greatest ever
React to "Malice at the Palace". It's considered as the worst NBA brawl.
@2:15 This is one thing I’ve always said and one of the things I’ve absolutely never understood. Like how the announcer says “The games over with and it’s one of those unwritten rules”. Well these guys are getting paid millions of dollars to go out there and to, one, play the game until the last second ticks off the clock, and two, entertain the fans. Also, if you don’t want the man to take a wide open 3 when, and as the commentator is saying, I guess trying to justify what the defender did “When the game is over” then get over there and do what they pay you to do and play defense.. I mean dude could have been 3 points from a double/triple double. If it was me in that position, no matter the time left in the game and I’m a 3 away from that or I’m 3 away from like my career high, I’m taking that shot. Cause it isn’t his fault that when the game is in the last few minutes and the other team is down by 30, that they decide to just give up even more. Like I get paid to play ball and that’s exactly what I’m going to do until that final buzzer goes off, plain and simple. But the game today, and sadly not just basketball, but almost all sports have gotten so soft these days that it’s almost not entertaining anymore. But I’d much rather have the guy who took the shot on my team than the sore loser who got mad and pushed him down for doing what he’s paid to do on my team.
It’s always aggravated me that they think just cause the “game is over” that they’re expected to just not shoot when you leave a good shooter wide open in the corner and refuse to come guard him until you see him already shooting the ball. Also, if there was more than 24 seconds on the clock, (I think the shot clock is 24 seconds lol, I kinda forgot) they would have had to shoot the ball eventually anyways, and even if it wasn’t, oh well, get u0 on your man and guard him and he wouldn’t be wide open for the shot to begin with. I’ll always take the side of the man shooting the ball before I will who had no self control and just shoves someone for not following these so called “unwritten rules”. The reason they’re unwritten is cause they’re not a rule to begin with, so he doesn’t have to just hold the ball, he can shoot as he damn well pleases if there is still time on that clock…
Most of those fouls weren't considered flagrant in the 80s and 90s other than a blatant undercut, and that was a technical. You had to do it twice to get thrown out.
Pushing a player while he's in flight is a major no-no.... it can cause serious injury.
You guys should react to more NBA though. There are a quite a few European guys in the league.
What happened with Kevin Durant was the Toronto Raptors fans started cheering loudly when he tore his Achilles, which most would consider out of character for Canadian fans. Even the Raptor players were telling the fans to stop.
Emily there’ll be plenty more 👍🏻
Flagrant one = yellow card, flagrant two = red card. Thats the easiest way to describe it.
James Harden still plays for Houston. He's really good and a little aggressive but not really a big trouble maker.
Not for long. He wants out and requested a trade. Houston in full rebuild, already taking 2 1st round picks and an expiring from Robert Covington.
You guys should react to the AFL (Australian football league)
They're not just fouls lad. They're dirty af. Pushing folk in mid air can be career ending.
The way that fouling is charged in basketball as far as I know is that body contact can happen but it can’t be something that physically affects the play, IE shoving someone in the body or hitting someone’s arm. You can touch the ball but can’t touch any other part of the body with your hand. Most fouls called are slight hits to the arms or hands so I have no idea how these players thought they could get away with fully body checking someone.
