Dude was looking like prime Jordan from the mid range against my Sixers the other night

Playing open run basketball with dude must be hell.
Dude saying "foul, ball up top" a hundred times will shut the run down.

I think the intentions were good with the "landing space" rule...but they either need to make it malicious intent only or just get it out the game. Jalen Brunson abuses this shyt like crazy as well.



The Kawhi injury years ago sucked, but shyt like this is why some of us say defense is legislated out of the game. Shot contests are under unnecessary scrutiny and a defender has to worry about everything but actually playing defense.

What's crazy about the " landing space" rule is that the defense should actually love it and adjust.
I have played basketball my whole life and have always jumped the highest I could to the shooters shooting hand and always to that side. Crazy to me that these elite pro athletes just close out directly to the middle and don't even jump.

So you have the chance to legally get and and1 or 2 ft if you miss and you're not taking it?

Btw, SGA has less FTs than cats like Kobe and AIs prime seasons, and even Lebron, in a higher scoring era.


Flopping is one thing but catching legit fouls is another thing, and it's not he who decides that he gets a foul, he just knows the rules better than his opponents and how to use them to his advantage:yeshrug:
