Jokic defeated the two true villains of the NBA, the Lakers and the Thunder. Beating teams other than those is just not needed.

I always hear people talk about how the best players/scorers “get to the free throw line” but what does that mean exactly? Isn’t it dependent on the other team fouling you? Is getting fouled a skill in itself? I know Harden had some trick that has since been legislated out of the game.

Part of it is drawing contact intentionally but also just being faster than everyone else so they hack you/stumble into you trying to stop you from getting to your space.

Jrue Holiday is the perfect example of someone who lacks that skill despite being a player who drives to the basket a lot and rarely getting foul calls.

Is getting fouled a skill in itself? I know Harden had some trick that has since been legislated out of the game. There's a few things here:
Certain guys definitely have the ability draw a shitload of fouls, but too often they bail out the defense by pulling up for a jumper instead. ANT comes to mind. So often when commentators are talking about "drawing fouls," they mean the guy is driving to the hoop and getting fouled instead of going "gently caress it" and taking a jump shot.

Is getting fouled a skill in itself? I know Harden had some trick that has since been legislated out of the game. The primary skill in drawing fouls is being a very good player who's difficult to guard. Say Steph Curry. Being good accounts for a huge proportion of fouls called. Beyond being a good player, there is skill at getting fouled, even if you're not very good. Matt Harpring being a great example. Physical players with a great motor. Then there's players who are very good AND are good at getting fouled. James Harden made a science of this.

It takes a really spectacularly lovely performance to make people wonder if your coach is making it to the All-Star Game after Game 3, but boy howdy, they sure managed it. Also, don't let his boxscore fool you - Ant played like dogshit in the second half.

i mean really it’s just that sam hauser and payton pritchard went from two highly efficient 3 point bench shooters (last year) to two of the worst shooters ive ever seen (this year). idk why

Peyton Watson and Christian Braun are at or above replacement for both Bruce Brown (luv u Bruce) and Jeff Green so yeah, I can see that being the case. I think they definitely miss Brown's 3p shooting but Watson is a nightmare on both ends, especially after teams are already forced to contend with AG's bulling in the paint.
