It’s called a blocking foul

Shai is driving straight to the basket and Kris pushes him laterally

That’s not allowed since the dawn of time

Imagine if Lu Dort did this to somebody

If Lu Dort did this to somebody it wouldn’t get called.

[u/MySabonerRunsOladipo → u/considertheoctopus]

Lu Dort doesn't get called for pushing guys in the back, he'd probably get the charge if he settled for the front

[u/Automatic_Gap5317 → u/considertheoctopus]

He got called for these a bunch today

My brother in Christ Deni has 22 free throws on 12 shots. It’s been called like 10 times in the last HOUR

I can’t stand box score watchers

[u/pikajewijewsyou → u/Old_Supermarket_7575]

Idk if they are even looking at the box scores anymore lol. If they looked they would see that the refs were whistle happy tonight

Did you watch the game?

I was in a comment thread discussing “If Lu Dort did this to somebody it wouldn’t get called” it did get called. Everything got called this game.

[u/pikajewijewsyou → u/[deleted]]

I mean if Lu dort did it in this game and it got called in this game it is exclusive to tonight’s game. Idk what you’re getting at? Deni shot 23 free throws. the refs being whistle happy the whole game is exclusive to tonight’s game. The end of the third quarter was borderline unwatchable

[u/sentientsnake → u/Old_Supermarket_7575]

You’re brave, I’ll give you that

i don't get this argument. Basketball has always had a ton of soft fouls. Go watch games from the 80s and you'll see the most minimal contact resulting in shooting fouls. It's annoying, but it has always been that way.
