    Next time, just run straight under their feet every time they shoot. Pretty sure that would scare the crap out of the shooters. They only bother looking at the shooting hand anyways. The league have to make a decision on whether to call the under footing or not, if not, just go for the feet ever single time.

    They don't even look at the shooting hand.

    Chris Paul hit twice on 3 point shots for no calls. (One of his shots went in - they say it was not a foul for taking his legs, but clearly contact is made with the hand)

    Yep I mentioned this earlier and if they call us for a foul it will expose the refs for the corrupt bastards that they are.

    They hip check us, hit the follow thru arm, and undercut us. You don't even touch Durant and it's a foul.

    That was hilarious when Jaby (spelling) was talking about how some of the calls were missed because the refs were looking at the hand instead of the feet, what the heck was the ref looking at when Durant smacked Paul on the arm lol

    They look at the jersey color and then decide if a foul should be called.

    Harden will inevitably go for a stepback 3 early in the game .

    If he is fouled and it's not called
    , we should do just this . If they won't consistently call it , no reason for us not to close out with the intention to injure ... plus is makes the shot WAY harder because the offensive player is now worried about protecting themselves
