This guy got called for 1 illegal screen in 5 games so far. Make it make sense.

He spreads those legs like he’s trying to give birth.
😡😡😡
The fact that we’ve been called for as many defensive fouls fighting through screens as he’s been called for offensive fouls tells me all I need to know about this series
I’d argue that in the grand scheme of things, this is a really good experience for our young players. With only a few exceptions, you need to face some extreme adversity to become a champion.
[For reference, this is the NBA’s official explanation of illegal screens which states that the screener must keep his feet no wider than shoulder width apart.](https://twitter.com/IQfor3/status/1656676561360412673?s=19)
The lords work! I was hoping someone would put this together.
Man, some of these he is full on extending his arms and pushing the defenders after and almost all of them are literally right in front of the refs.
Can we get a compilation of Zeller? Dude only gets like 15 mins a game, but he makes sure to get in as many moving screens as possible in that time
I just don’t understand how the refs keep letting it go game after game

“Jean Van Bam Adebeyo” setting his screens
I’m in the boat of using this attention and having the Knicks players exaggerate the illegal contact. He leans in on a screen, throw your head back. Sticks out a leg? Trip over it. Their entire team does this, it’s not just him. It’s mad frustrating that they get away with it, and even sometimes our players get called for the foul while trying to fight through it.
Turns his body midscreen …hopefully enough of exposing it in the media will lead to it being called but I doubt it
Someone needs to make the Jordan Poole baddies video but with Edrice and the refs and then just this video during the music
This gives me PTSD from KG sticking out his leg and tripping Toney Douglas as Ray Allen hits the game winner
The solution to this is anticipating the screen and absolutely leveling him. Knock him on his ass a couple of times. See if he can take it as well as he gives it.
HE CANT KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH IT!
Omg this is so frustrating. Someone tweet this to the nba and Adam silver and the refs. And the Knicks so maybe they can tell the refs they’re aware.
Seriously what was illegal about his screen on Grimes?
Did you try posting this on r/nba
Thibs has gotta send this to the league it’s absolutely absurd
Imagine Lowry going over an Adebayo screen. Stoppable force meets a movable object.
