NBA Game Action: 1/19/2015

So tired of seeing big men get penalized for posting up. If a guy falls down refs, ignore it. He's flopping.

Especially if the guy is smaller than the Big. If you give Wesley that call then what is Cousins supposed to do? Face up and take him?

Get tired of seeing that man, it allows small guys get away with guarding bigger guys because the refs fall for that same call every time.

 

He needs to learn not to slap with his off hand or push of, it's going to get called 100% of the time unless you have your own shoe brand...

 

Yup same problem Dwight faces nightly

 

That wasn't what got him his 6th foul

 

The 4th foul should have been a no-call

The 5th foul was an atrocious call; obvious flop.

The 6th was definitely a foul. Though I agree that being Cousins worked against him in nearly all of these situations

 

Yeah, they take away big guys strength with that. I can understand if it's two bigs going at it, but if a guard is stuck on a big and gets bulled over that's supposed to happen.

Any ways, can't believe Dame missed a FT. Would really enjoy a clutch shot by Collison here...

 

Of course Gay misses...Collison is pretty clutch, should have taken that shot.

DeAndre Jordan's post game interview was hilarious

 

What does Melo show you though?
