We really need to run more plays getting Harden the ball off cuts instead of isos - he's unstoppable when he gets a run at an unsettled D.
If they call that, there is literally no advantage being stronger than the opponent in that situation. Just body them up for a few bumps and then fall the fk over.
Are you serious? How could anyone play post offense if the defender could just fall down with the slightest bump?
Exactly man, I rant about it every game thread because it's so frustrating to watch. A smaller forward can just flop in the paint and always get rewarded for it. How are you going to post up with that on your mind? There are no more power post players any more like Shaq was. You gotta be finesse in the post now or else the refs won't respect your game. When they go back to rewarding ACTUAL defense in the paint then we may see more centers relying on a post game now that is based on power. Back in the day, being stronger in the paint meant you got to bully around smaller guys. Not anymore.
