when they dont call fouls players try flopping harder
I told y’all !! I’ve made post after post about this. This is the reason the Lakers have won games. It changes the momentum completely and the refs are giving them these calls every single time. Dubs need to adjust and start doing the same!
The swipe thru should be an offensive foul. Kicking the ball should be a team warning and then a technical. Flopping should be a technical and a turnover if they flopped as an offensive player. If you’re not the immediate defender of an offensive player about to score, you should have to be set on your spot before the gather in order to draw a charge.
Preach
Surprised he called it out, super happy he did though.
the CP3 hack has been penalized before, why it didnt?
Yea I agree, saying it down 3-1 makes us look salty tho but i guess better to say it now than never lol

The Chris Paul name drop is kinda wild lmao
He should have said this shit after game 1 and 3 where reffing was horrendous. Game 4 we lost because we’re fucking trash
Maybe Game 4 was bad too considering how many points in the paint we had, but I may not have noticed it because Game 3 was so egregious

If Kerr is finally saying something about it, you know it’s bad.

Bitter Bill.
100% – let’s issue delay of game penalty rules. First one is loss of possession, second is a tech.
I hate how players try their best to get fouled or act to get fouled but I think that’s really bullshit. Why can’t it be just natural? I know some people might think It’s a smart move, fuck you, that ain’t no smart move. Like in the Kings’ series, I was really getting fucking annoyed when Monk, Barnes and Sabonis were forcing the foul and the worst part is they’re getting called too. It really changes the momentum of the game.
Kerr also said on 95.7 that the reffing isn’t why the warriors are down 3-1.
Agree! karate kicks to wieners too pls
Yes, and I’m not saying for this series either. It’s something that they need to address for next season and beyond because it is a terrible part of the game and it’s going to continue when players are rewarded for it.
You know what would be more entertaining and consequential than watching free throws? 1 possession power play
Lmao. This is comedy coming from this team
But he’s the head coach of the Warriors so Reddit hates anything he says
Hell yeah. Enough with that shit. It should be a technical.
What if all the calls are reviewed after the game and to determine if a flopping occurred. If it did then give the player a technical foul for example or not allow them to take free throws after one foul in the following game. Idk
Kerr always look like he’s not trying to cough in opera show
The most frustrating thing to watch is some idiot like reaves running to get in front of a drive to the basket. That’s not defense. And it’s dangerous, often times the offensive player is caught up in the air and can’t control the landing. On the other hand, the defender is expecting contact where they are ready to move in that direction and brace themselves.
I’ve liked that defenders who actually defend by jumping up with their hands up aren’t getting called on as much. At least they’re trying instead of being a damn traffic cone.
I’d love it if they’d do that. Even if the techs were reviewed and assigned after the game by the league. They’d add up and players would get suspended. There could be a transition period where players fight it by flopping and getting mad about receiving a tech. But if the league stuck with it, the players would eventually give up on that bullshit and flop.
But there is a small issue. Sometimes players flop when they’re not even touched, like that one shot of Wiggins guarding Monk. But sometimes players don’t get called for a lot of fouls, so they need to sell it to get one. I don’t think the latter should be given techs.
too late for this season.
We are going to lose ! FUCK MY LIFE !
How about stop with illegal screen/ and the flopping will stop.
