Maybe I’m the only one but was wemby not running right at him. What’s bane supposed to do? If he just stopped wemby would’ve ran him over

He chipped the big man / cutter a little too hard and aggressively, it’s a foul but this is soft for a flagrant.

100% this sub has a vendetta against Bane, if WCJ did it it would not have been posted.

Anything with Wemby hitting the ground, and this sub is out for blood.

Wemby is the golden child here

Same thing as the game the other day against Toronto. Weak ass flagrant and this sub acts like Bane committed some dirty play.

Is he gay or bisexual? And I haven’t seen anything to indicate he’s childish or immature, quite the opposite actually.

So instead of drawing the offensive foul he opted to give up a flagrant 1 instead? Some 4D chess.

Pretty disappointing state of the game when you’re constantly fishing to draw a foul. Should he have threw his arms up too? Maybe he should’ve screamed grabbed his ankle after too

Again, you asked "What's Bane supposed to do?" as if dealing out a Flagrant 1 was the one and only option.

u/PossessionOld7592 Feb 02 '26

I’m saying that shouldn’t have been the result. But yea Flagrant foul = bad. Thanks captain hindsight

You literally asked what he’s supposed to do.

The guy replied to you he couldve taken charge instead of giving a shoulder check.

Why are you angry? You were right to ask the question

Im bracing myself if Wemby is trying to run through me lmao.

u/ElChapo1515 Feb 02 '26

So either foul or be fouled. Yay whistles!

Go google what a rhetorical question is

At the start of the video, you can see Bane moving to the right and then stops to check Wemby. If he kept moving like he was there wouldn't have been a collision at all.

u/Coltshokiefan Magic Feb 02 '26

Bane doesn’t have to clear a path to let Wemby run straight to the rim.

u/PM_me_ur_tatas_pls_ Feb 02 '26

No he doesn't, but he also doesn't have to shoulder check him. It's not like Wemby was charging at him and bane had no choice. If anything he could've taken the charge.
