Reaves foul baiting flirting vs Trae foul baiting harassment
njb2017
I really thought NBA was going to cut down on these calls.

I feel like the league has cut down on this kind of bait by and large but they always give short guys the benefit of the doubt on these. Trae is the only one I’ve seen still do this with any consistency besides maybe Jimmy, but Jimmy actually looks like he wants to shoot when he does it

Wow those are bad.

Remember the like week and a half when the NBA didn’t let players do this bullshit and actually called offensive fouls on it? What the fuck happened?

I think my biggest annoyance with him is not him seeking out fouls/contact, but doing it to the extent where it’s obvious he’s not even trying to seek out a clean shot in the process.

That throwing his ass back into defenders like a stripper move is one of the most embarrassing things in sports. Shit like this is why NBA ratings will never touch the NFL, casual fans change the channel when they see some pathetic shit like that.

Those last two definitely shouldn’t have been fouls

This kind of hoops is ugly – I hate to watch it. Thank Harden and the league for enabling it.

This is absolutely disgusting

Damn that last one is prettyyyyyy bad

That last one was ridiculous. Love how the ref refused to look at the video haha

Why don’t they just run straight into him full speed if he is gonna stop in front of them.
Make these hurt.

Do it the right way, Trae. Like Jimmy does.

He had the balls to complain about the officiating after the game too

When people wonder why we don’t take Trae Young seriously, show them this video.

The last two are calls the refs would never give to a rookie or no-name role player.

I really wish after a couple of these that someone would just put the guy onto the floor with some force. Obviously I know why they don’t, but if they’re gonna call the foul get your money’s worth

Horrible to watch, dude leans towards defenders to create “contact” embarrassing “skill”
packimop
this is for anyone who wonders why no players voted for him to be an all star
This shit is ruining the game. Bail out calls. You think trae would have that motion if he was actually trying hit hit shots
Thellamaking21
This is atrocious. Good highlight reel op

They need to get this shit out of the NBA. No one wants to watch it but until the rules are changed, players are going to keep taking advantage of it

This is ridiculous lmfao

No one wants to watch a free throw shooting contest. At this point, a game of bump would be more entertaining to watch. Re-write the damn rulebook

I don’t even care anymore it’s on the league to fix it. Hope he gets even more blatant with it

The nba is a fucking joke
Kid_Crayola
this is my biggest gripe with the NBA
this shit isn’t even basketball, nobody wants to watch this

NBA is becoming unwatchable for me.
I’m sure the majority of it is that my Mavs suck but this isn’t basketball. People should be getting fined and suspended for this shit. MFin Austin Reaves cannot be averaging 13 free throws a game.
Player empowerment and rest has gone too far. 75% of the games I tune in for one of the marquee stars is out.
If only we had a competent commissioner…

This is unwatchable basketball imo. Rather see people drive for fouls than jump backwards or kickout

This is the most unpleasing style of basketball to watch. I’ve been watching and playing basketball my whole life; if this is what I saw any given night I’d stop watching altogether
pabloescobarbecue
I was actually prepared to defend Young here, we are constantly tearing players down. But that was tough to watch.

This would be so fucking frustrating to actually play defense against.

It’s so frustrating because Trae is an amazing player. The refs are the ones who enable him to play like this. If they stopped giving him these calls, he would quickly stop playing like this. It’s really that simple. I don’t understand how the league can look at plays like this and thinks it’s good for the league.
