    Wasn't there a rule change at the beginning of this season that would stop Players who initiate the contact going to the rim getting FTs all the time? (aka "Harden rule")

    And I thought the swing through went away a couple years ago but have seen lots of at least suspiciously similar **** from Haren.

    Completely conflicted as to what I hate more .... his game or his beard.

    Yeah, Harden routinely gets those swing through calls out at the three point line especially. I noticed Durant getting some of those against us the other night as well. I thought that was outlawed.

    The 3ot foul he drew on kuz was warranted, harden initiated contact but it wssnt a full swing move, kuz hand was in his space

    Sixteen missed free throws. We are losing, or making games way more difficult, in large part because of free throws. Something this simple costing us games is incredibly frustrating. We got away with it last night because we shot well and got a ton of free throws overall, but it has to be fixed somehow.

    It was only outlawed when Kobe was doing it. Now that Kobe's gone, it's cool again.

    It's like when they outlawed the dunk in NCAA when Kareem came in and then lifted the ban when he graduated.

    1) Refs
    2) KCP

    I understand KCP has the same agent has Lebron. This better pan out. KCP is puke worthy

    Those refs, same as last game, were hot wet garbage. I’ve watched NBA ball long enough now to know when a game is being called fairly and when I’m being biased. This was poor refereeing, plain and simple. We got away with a few non-calls, but for the most part they got all the big calls.

    My favorite was the blatant flop by Durant on the "trip". Are you f***ing kidding me with that s***? That was pathetic. I would have gotten a tech for that and immediately called Durant a b**** to his face.

    KCP and his inability to hit wide open shots. And if he's not taking and missing those, he's taking challenging tough shots which he doesn't hit either. I trust Josh Hart way more.
