It's up to the referee's discretion on what he rules excessive. Since they're letting both teams play, he's been able to get away with a lot of initiated contact.
Displacing is different than shielding.

He used the term "shielding" (trying to spin it), whereas I used the terms pushing off/creating separation/pushing out the way.Displacing is different than shielding.

LOL THE HOMIE WAS LIKE "WTF??? U ALLOWED TO TACKLE LIKE THAT?"
IT'S BRON CUZZ....THE NBA'S GOLDEN CHILD. THEY GUNA PROTECT HIM AT ALL COSTS AND ALREADY HAD IT SET UP FOR HIM TO RECEIVE ALL THE GLORY NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENED IN THIS SERIES
-IF HE LOSES, THE NARRATIVE IS "IT'S INCREDIBLE HE EVEN GOT THIS TEAM TO THE FINALS...THE GUY IS TRULY AMAZING IN EVERY SENSE"
-IF HE PLAYS MEDIOCRE AND WINS BASED ON CLEVELAND'S IMPECCABLE DEFENSE, THE NARRATIVE IS "DOESN'T MATTER IF HE CHOKED THE LEAD AWAY WITH A TERRIBLE SHOOTING PERFORMANCE...HE DID ENOUGH TO WIN WITH THIS SQUAD, WHICH IS INCREDIBLE CONSIDERING HE HAS TO CARRY THEM INDIVIDUALLY"
-AND IF HE PLAYS GOOD AND CLEVELAND WINS..."WOW, HE DID LITERALLY EVERYTHING. GOAT, HANDS DOWN. DID U SEE HOW HE SHUT DOWN ALL 5 OF THE WARRIORS PLAYERS? UNBELIEVABLE, MY KING"
FACT OF THE MATTER IS, THE MVP OF THIS SERIES SO FAR IS DAVID BLATT FOR HIS DEFENSIVE SCHEMES...BUT NOBODY WANTS TO TALK ABOUT THAT, BECAUSE IT DOESNT SELL SHOES.
It's bullshyt....Kobe wouldn't have even gotten away with that
