    When players get beat they look for any kind of contact they can embellish. It's the state of the nba. If they are trying to send a point why aren't they fining him. It's a joke.

    It was pretty bad. You want to know how bad it was?

    Tommy Heinsohn, the color commentator for the Celtics and one of the biggest homers out there that hardly EVER has anything bad to say about his team, watched the play and called Bayless out for "flip floping".

    I was shell-shocked.

    Indeed, Heinsohn is really a unbelieveable homer, he is even worse than Bill (and that is saying a lot). I couldn't believe he said something negative about his team. Ofcourse they went on about how fair Heinsohn is during a game and not a homer at all.:rolleyes:

    This was during the hack-a-howard, and they thankfully didn't give him the call which is why most of us probably missed it.

    That was pretty bad LOL

    Don't worry, he made it up by calling Marshon Brooks the "right handed James Harden" during the game...

    That's a block. If Jones would of went up strong with two hands he would have gotten fouled.

    ^ The only thing in question in that play is Bayless' verticality. I would argue that he successfully establishes legal guarding position (doesn't initiate contact), but he is definitely moving towards TJones (no verticality).
