It's bad, his FT shooting is wayyyyyyyy down and they're ignoring alot that other players get whistles for. Pathetic.
Media pressure definitely influencing refs, however Harden doesn't need the refs to be the best offensive player in the league, the sooner he realizes that the better.
Gahdamn how in the world did they just let Capela tip it to himself 3 times? Im not a Hawks fan but even i found that a bit upsetting lol.
Probably just not calling it when he raised his arms like that to sell it. Too of the league probably doesn't want that to constantly happen in the league because fans complain that players do it too much. You know... capitalism.
