Rick Barry goes off on modern NBA officiating

[duncanthetall]

I agree especially on the moving screens. shyts so egregious. And then the times where it’s a moving screen and the defender gets called for a foul trying to get around it. shyt makes me hot

If refs called every moving screen there would be no play.

Players would adjust

Nah it’s kinda like holding in the NFL. It happens every play but you can’t call every single one

They used to call it in the nba all the damn time when it happened. Players would adjust.

The game is much more screen heavy for the 3 and pick and pop now with mostly moving screens. You’d have to call it every play and if players really adjusted it would be such a stagnant game

I agree with him overall, but I wouldn’t really call for anything getting adjusted except moving screens. All that other shyt is just star advantage being passed down to a bigger talent pool.

Stars been had a different rulebook

If the rules were called how they're supposed to...the Warriors don't win ANY of those titles. Call me a hater I don't care but I'll die on that hill

Players would adjust.

Post play and midrange would come back.

it’s the palming the ball for me. Players will literally have their whole hand under the ball… I don’t blame dudes for getting their ankles broke these days.

Shoutout Allen Iverson

This basically what he’s talking about. He had Russ dancing but it’s tough defending shyt like this

 

[nieman]

They changed the rule for AI. They said his crossover was a carry, so he stopped doing it. He kept it lower.

Same with Chuck backing you down for 10secs til you got tired. He started facing up, and reposting more...granted he was older but still.

We all know the traveling is bad, but the screens irk me.

Honestly, the fans they are catering too don't even exist anymore. Those are the same folks that say the season doesn't start until after the All-Star break.
