    The "shooting jumpers all night line" is a pretty standard response, but considering that's 90% of Kobe's offense and he regularly gets 10+ FTAs a game...

    GS with some porous defense in the last minute or so.

    Time to change that to "Hand up, man up," Mark Jackson.

    Yeah his work in the post leads to his "patented" fallaway where he gets a lot of cheap calls. I mean, they maybe fouls, but they aren't fouls the rest of the league gets. I think the refs just don't want to get berated by Kobe every time down so they give him the benefit of the doubt?

    Okay wise ass please explain to me why the Warriors should have more free throws then. Please tell me one low post players of theirs that actually knows how to draw fouls? Annoying little prick.

    To be honest, most of GS's shots are catch and shoot shots by Thompson and Curry, and a jumper by Lee or Landry. There's not a lot of bruisers on GS, except for maybe Jack.

    Not saying the Warriors should have more FT's, or even the same, but 34-10 after 3 quarters is ridiculous. Like I said, FOH and back to LakersGround.

    Why are you so mad Kobe stan? Shouldn't the Warriors be facing these kind of FT differentials every game since they have no low post offense?

    They've missed at least 3-4 fouls down low on Landry that I can remember, I gotta say

    The problem with basketball is that 90% of plays could be called a foul so the refs have so much control. So while clueless fans like Stanlandry there want us to point to specific plays, the real answer is that there are lots of plays on both side and the refs just need to be consistent.
