LOL. What is the NBA waiting for? Just change the traveling rule to 4 steps and state that up and down isn't traveling.

Aren't they already calling travelling and carrying more ?

Not enough

Sort of what they are trying to do, gradually

They pick and choose who to call it on. I don’t think I’ve seen Giannis called once

Absolutely this

Certain players 100% get preferential treatment

Since the dawn of NBA time this has been true, and we still watch

…..and will continue too.

But, some of this shit is just egregious.

It’s embarrassing

I wonder if an extra step or two might be too difficult for refs to consistently see in real time. Carrying is probably easier to see. Maybe hesitation dribble moves are so good nowadays because of carrying. LOL.

I think Steph is a clean ball handler. Ja and Poole, not so much. Remember Tim Hardaway? His moves were so good and clean.

Yeah, the stuff that Ja does is a step too far. Actually, maybe 2, 3, or 4 steps too much.

Ok thanks

The Raptors are @fightinfunbags second fav team too. So you're lucky

Yeah Tim bug had legit handles

For me Jordan and Iverson were the first guys I remember getting that kind of treatment

Okay...Wiggins returns tonight for the Dubs.
Also...Iggy will finally make his season debut.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Well Lamb is having a nice game so far....maybe Donte too....but everyone else...meh.
Klay was pulled from the starting lineup prior to tipoff with knee soreness. His return is questionable.
Dubs down by 3 at the half.

 

[The Q]

Improve it, yes.

Not give it away for a 50 mil per bench player.

I got Conley as the guy you need to get

So funny watching the Dubs struggle against inferior teams, because it rarely happens at home.
Just not their night apparently. Gotta tip your cap to Orlando though...they are outworking, outplaying and outhustling GS on both ends.

If the Dubs are not in a seed they want then they can just look back at the season where the Pistons and Magic both swept the season series

Meh...probably not. It's way too early to even think about that noise.
I'm sure there will be some other turn of events to consider before they go there, which is unlikely anyway.
