are you watching a pickup game or the best league in the world?

 

[buzzy]

Nobody ever calls a charge in a pickup either

I'm watching the G-League?

 

[buzzy]

Smart played, so yeah probably

 

[bosoxlover12]

If that was any other team in the league (and/or any other player than Marcus Smart), y'all would be in agreement with me. 99% of /r/nba agrees
 
Refs swallow their whistle consistently on shots like these, usually with a lot more contact. This was not something to call a foul.
 
 
 
Not to mention the ref called the foul after the shot hit the rim, not after the contact

 

[buzzy]

I'm just in it for the Smemes

lmfao thats a joke, right?

Getting hit on the arm can affect your shot a lot even if it's not much contact

I like smart, the defender

 

[Hurricane Season]

It's pretty clear to me that you guys need to just give up that first for Jimmy... or else

"I think what he's doing is outstanding, myself, especially with a team that's been weakened since Kevin Durant left," Oscar Robertson—the only player in NBA history to average a triple-double for a full season—told USA Today's Sam Amick. "That makes a big difference. So therefore, he's taken it upon himself to try to do whatever he can to help his team to win."

Alpha

Yeah he hunts for stats and his teammates understand when he passes it to them, shoot and when theres a miss, get out of the way or box out guys so he could get the boards (plus starting sabonis helps since he's not a rebounder)

Steven Adams and his floaters lmao

Theyre in 7th. Big fucking woop

 

[Mexi]

he probably touched the elbow a tiny bit when his arm was fully extended. if it altered his shot who knows

then it was a foul unfortunately

 

[Paulius]

Theyre winning , thats all that matters

Kanter will come back soon , second half of the year will be even better
