Go back to game 1 of the 2003 Western Conference Finals. Spurs vs. Mavs.

Spurs were running the Mavs out of the building, then Don Nelson employed hack-a-Bruce Bowen. Destroyed SA's momentum, and the Mavs came back and won that game.

Teams used to foul Duncan, too. And OKC made no bones about hacking Splitter a few years ago. Guess what?

All three of those guys doubled down on their ft's and teams went away from the strategy against SA.
