He drives to the hoop, draws marginal contact at best, and yells to the ref. Every. Single. Play. Discuss.
Here we go. It's in his nature like Tim Duncan and Draymond Green. It is what it is. Sometimes he's justified, many times he's not All I know is when he's ON, it's a motherfkn thing of beauty: OP: Eric Gordon says it's NO Biggie Man!
Eric Gordon yelling is the funniest thing man. His voice sounds like a cartoon character when he yells like that.
look how he sits for all these minor booboo's. clearly just has very low pain threshold and is truly feeling that marginal contact
I think EG is getting fouled on at least 89% of his shrieks. Refs don't call anything for him. Refs only call fouls for Harden. Only time CP3 goes to the line is if he does that sweep through move in the bonus. EG (and maybe Rivers) is the only player on the team that aggressively and deliberately drives to the basket. He doesn't go to the line enough.
Every single play. On offense, on defense. I’m having flashbacks of when LMA torches us in the playoffs and yelled at every shot attempt and got the foul
You might like a vid I made last year (or remember it) Not just a thing of beauty, but also ...the sound of money (turn on audio)
Personally, I don't think it's good for the team. There is a psychology when times get tough. And he brings himself and the team down with him. And the refs have got to be tired of it, just like most of us are. However, we need him because the rest of the team is a legitimate dumpster. At least he's a legitimate role player, starter, and bench player as needed.
He's outraged. He watches Harden go to the line all night, so he's outraged when he doesn't get the same calls. He's outraged.
Yeah it annoys me to see him do that all the time, but it kills me when he's so busy looking at the ref when the play is going the other way. Get back on defense man. Go foul someone out of frustration, just get back.
Me and a few friends have an inside joke. If you were to replace the NBA logo with a silhouette of EGo complaining to a referee, every single rockets fan would immediately know who it is and who it's referencing. Dude NEVER FAILS to complain.
I used to get sick of it, but understand his frustration. If he had the name Curry, or any other Golden Boy of the league on the back of his jersey he would be at the free throw line on half those non calls. The lack of calls swaying his way doesn't stop him from driving though, and I like that.
