    These are all hard fouls made at the basket. One example on Lin was FAR from flagrant. There is nothing special about Jeremy Lin, this crap happens to everyone in the league when plays are made around the basket. Lin fans are terrible basketball fans. They focus too much on the player and not enough on the game their player plays.

    Also, that's funny that the examples were with Kobe, Melo, and Harden. I wonder if Lin rubbed folks the wrong way when he played with him? The examples say yes. We know Lin does things directly against the franchise and that's just from his twitter account. Imagine what he does behind the scenes! Disloyal little punk!

    1. You're right. Those are just hard basketball fouls. Nothing wrong with that.

    The problem is these hard fouls are not getting called and punished accordingly. Intentional or not, hard fouls above the shoulders is dangerous and reckless. That's a flagrant foul.

    2. Quite the assumption you're making there. Lin seems to get along fine in Charlotte. He had close relationships with Landry Fields and Chandler Parsons. Maybe its Kobe, Melo, Harden (prima donna divas with huge superstar egos) that are hard to get along with.

    Actually yes, Kobe ran Shaq out of LA. Harden basically alienated Howard. I'll go with this one.

    violet palmer and brothers were obnoxious when it came to refereeing yao.
    at least crawford gives it to every team that's not LA equally, unless it's that virgin islands native.

    Note to JB, plant seeds before the GS series with the refs. Moving screens. As much as I hate it, it does work. And if he wants to go Phil Jackson on Steph Curry, I won't mind, as those mental games can get into a players head like how Steph skip travels on every dribble drive. nobody will even know what that is, but Curry will start thinking about it. Or he has a hitch in his three point shot this last month. Get in this f'ers head.

    Some posters obviously did not watch the video and/or read the article. They just spew some hatred with anything that is from a Lin fan.

    I try to avoid the extreme Lin fans. The Lin fans haters are just as bad. Both camps should just hole down in the D&D slinging poo to each other and leave basketball discussion alone.

    Anyone have the vid of Lin's flagrant foul on Harden when they were teammates. Knocked Harden out of the game, right?

    Jeremy could have stopped this himself by complaining about it, for whatever reason some of the NBA players feel he can be intimidated, and try to bludgeon him.

    And the lack of accountability from the Refs is appalling, I am NO J Lin fan, but I see some racism going on with Lin and it needs to be dealt with harshly.

    Can't find vid (probably posted here somewhere), but here's a report of it

    http://bleacherreport.com/articles/...ury-updates-on-rockets-stars-elbow-and-return

    "Superstar guard James Harden injured his elbow in a collision with Jeremy Lin’s face late in the contest."​

    I don't think she knows what a Flagrant is. Kobe, Melo and Aldridge were flagrants, imo. The others are incidental. The second Portland playoff one isn't even a foul, imo,,, Lin ran into the defenders elbow, like he did to Harden's elbow when they were teammates.

    Terry's were technicals. Little different than flagrants.

    Also, I thought it was weird she kept wondering why no review. I mean, they can't review no-calls. We can argue whether those are reviewable, but that's the rules.

    So, that was 6 plays covering 3 years? Maybe she'll come up with more.
