You know what i'm talking about - his deceptive moves to draw foul. Personally I thnk he's over doing it.. he needs to play regular basketball. It's ok to do it twice a game but lately it's been working against him. And Lowry is getting the same treatment by the refs. I think the coaching staff should address thisASAP.
Martin has been doing that his entire career, probably entire life. I don't think you can tell him to change his entire playstyle. He looks to get fouled 90% of the time he makes a move. It's whats made him so relevant in the NBA, and why Morey wanted him here.
YES! I can't stand the way he plays! That type of play wouldn't fly in the playoffs, when the game become's a lot more physical and the ref's let that type of petty contact go..
Morey wanted him here with Yao as an outside thread to reduce double-teaming. If you can teach a guy like Chuck Hayes how to shoot free-throws, there's nothing impossible to tell him to minimize that trick. It's the easiest thing to coach.
That's his game, always has been and always will be. As far as playoffs...how about we get to .500 before we even begin to discuss how refs will call Kev in the playoffs.
If Kmart stopped flopping his PPG would go way down, he can't beat his man off the dribble so he tricks them into fouling him..... The problem is that he is fools gold and is basically a net zero on the floor, he scores a lot, but gives up a lot too.... DD
You know as much as you hate his flailing layups, he will be really useless if he doesnt draw fouls right? I mean if he doesn't flop, he won't be able to finish anyways with any kind of contact cuz he is usually outweighed by like 50 pounds
Sucks because every other scorer in the league doen't have to work that hard to get a call. You just look at durant wrong and he goes to the line, same for wade and the other member of miami shore.
You could say the same thing about Scola, Brooks, Budinger, Miller, and Jeffries. We have so many one way players that have a net zero impact. Maybe we can find someone that will take our fool's gold for a couple of legit two way players. The trade deadline can't get here soon enough.
Give it up man. You sound like a troll when you keep repeating this trash when your boy is less a efficient scorer and a worse defender. This is one of your dumber posts of the last month.
