It's clearly a foul but who cares, if this wasn't green no one would give a poo poo.

If you read the text of the rule, quote:The defender must, however, establish legal guarding position prior to the start of the offensive player’s upward motion. quote:To be considered vertical, a defender must: Draymond jumped with Lebron, and his body position was only changed by Lebron's hip/thigh/ arm pushing him back and to the side It's only a foul if you don't think he was in place long enough to have 'established legal guarding position' before the jump. I'd say no foul, he'd only need to be there for a blink longer than that to get a charge Dejan Bimble fucked around with this message at 21:53 on Dec 26, 2016 |

Is anyone here going to read Furious George? I usually will pick up basketball related books but this one really does seem like a guy just trying to stay relevant/make a quick buck.

I think we should remember what Zogo said, it's pretty well known that he's got a bit of fried chemo brain, so I don't really care to pile on. It might have some funny stories

CharlestheHammer posted:Probably not but the refs let a lot of things go most of the time. I mean, that's kind of the gist of it when talking about fouls. The refs obviously don't call every violation they see, so the question is should that be called a foul? And I think you're crazy if you say yes; that's pretty much picture perfect rim defense, under no circumstances should that ever be called.

any player that talks to a ref after stoppage because of a foul should be suspended. literally no call has been overturned by talking to them a minute after, stop wasting time

euphronius posted:They've been letting rim hangs go for years after a couple of years of enforcing it. There are so many cases when a guy needs to hang for a second to have a safe landing that it's very reasonable to allow it. I think we have the forging technology in 2016 to make a rim assembly that won't bend under the force of a big man dunk and rim hang

I propose that we should make safe, breakable rims and backboards that cause candy to spill out onto the court in celebration of powerful dunks

Also, breaking the backboard should trigger the release of an amount of doves correlating with the intensity of the dunk e: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LGRAE-y851M

Spacebump posted:Depending on how popular the player is, they will still call it on end of rotation players. That one was let go not (just) because of who did it, but when it happened. Any ref will think twice about giving a tech for rim hanging late in a close game on Christmas Day between the two best teams in the league. Lebron hanging too long on the rim doesn't negatively affect the Warriors at all, so they should just let it go. It's one of those calls refs should make every 5 games or so, so that players don't get too out of hand with it; it shouldn't be called late in an important game. The Draymond call was probably one that could have been let go, but calling a foul on it isn't insane or anything. Green should learn to pick his spots for throwing a tantrum, and 2 minutes into a 4-2 game isn't the right spot for it. But, Draymond appears to be the rich man's Ron Artest, or the poor man's Dennis Rodman - they play with alot of energy and passion, it's why they're good on defense, but it occasionally goes overboard, and the team has to judge whether their overall play is worth the drama they start every so often. It almost always was for Rodman, it usually is for Draymond, and it was 50/50 for Artest.

They usually allow them to swing forward and back which lowers their momentum and fits into the rule carve out.

bullshit calls that make the game worse to watch: traveling tech for rim hanging (feels like a foul imposed from the past where the local YMCA was worried that players could potentially damage their expensive new glass rims) potentially okay bullshit calls: taunting (should be 2 shots but not possession, definitely worth it when gently caress The Other Team is called for) only okay in retrospect:

Rim hanging is taunting at least that was the argument behind its restriction.

I would hope Warriors management is much more concerned about the absolutely garbage rear end unforced turnovers that plague Curry's game more than Draymond's intensity. It absolutely boggles my mind that he's still doing this poo poo, I would've expected some of the veterans like Igoudala to step in by this point and be like cut the poo poo.

And I think it's a bad argument! Rim hanging is celebrating a personal accomplishment, a solution to the Man v. Nature equation (the Rim is a natural occurrence) , not man ruthlessly celebrating his dominion over other man (bad sportsmanship)

 NBA INJURY UPDATEDoug "The Pride of Nebraska" McDermott has injured his shin while leading the Bulls' heroic failed Christmas Comeback Michael Carter-Williams has gloriously returned to Chicago Bulls, which, if you think about it, is sort of like they made a major trade, according to Front Office Sources If you combined McDermott and MCW into one player, you would have a Competent Rotation Player

I recognize that rim hanging is often taunting but also think taunting should be allowed. Bring back guys doing throat slashes, big balls dances, rim hanging and talking about what each other's wives smell like.
