    I said the exact same thing then some guy bashed me saying why don't I go take a charge from an NBA player if I think it is a soft thing to do.

    Had me like :confused:

    That was a pathetic out of bounds play. Why do teams let the clock go down to 6 seconds before they make a move? For tie games at the end of regulation, makes sense. Any other time, it's dumb.

    More horrible that he grabbed the ball, the quarter would've ended.

    So, by your logic, there should be no charges? Charges are there to punish offensive players for being reckless and just running towards the hoop full speed.

    You say play defense or foul them; you'd foul out really quickly, if there were no charges.

    I'll take being down by 8. OKC feeling good about themselves, Memphis is angry. KD has gotten off a little, Zach hasn't.

    Gonna be a great second half.

    34 points at the half for Memphis.

    Perkins vs. Chandler
    Ibaka vs. Dirk
    Durant vs. Marion
    Sefolosha vs. Terry
    Westbrook vs. Kidd

    Harden vs. Peja

    You played bad D if a guy gets an open lane, so you should be punished of course.
    And being the ball handler, wouldn't you move to the basket with speed if there was an open lane?:confused:

    Hollins needs to switch conley back on Westbrook for the time being, OJ can't afford another foul.

    I wonder what the contract situation for Thabo is. I think Harden should start next season for the Thunder. As a Thunder fan I like Thabo, but Harden is just so much better. I'd like the Thuder to keep Thabo if he is cheap enough to play only 15 minutes off the bench.

    I might be wrong but over 50% of the charge calls the offensive player is not even being reckless.
