re: Just sound, fundamental basketball by those pesky OKC Thunder!

I agree some of the gripes are a little overblown and that OKC was just better last night as expected
But THIS is objectively frickin hilarious to read. No human being who watched the game last night can possibly believe this.

It means when he’s rebounding he’s laying over the defender, grabbing and pulling them down. When he gets tired it’s even worse. Illegal contact every time. Not one foul called for over the back. Two games he’s done it about 20 times and had one foul for it.

I listened to Rob Perez and Antonio Daniels discuss this for about a half hour. Rob said the falling is no big deal as only two fouls were called out of the viral clip and this actually hurts Shai as he is not ready to get back on D. Daniels was pretty upset that it's hurting the discussion about otherwise good basketball.

I don't love it to be clear, no matter his intention. He's a good defender and if he misses, you're giving a team that loves to get out in transition a 5 on 4.

Don’t yall find interesting at all that the only people that don’t have negative opinions about this are Thunder fans? Hmmm….
And then yall say we (being the rest of the known universe) are just biased against the fricking (checks notes) OKC Thunder. Lol
You don’t think it’s more likely that it just plain sucks and you are biased towards your own team? Maybe just a littttttle more probable of an explanation.
The lack of self awareness is mind blowing. I promise I don’t care in anyway about the Thunder. They can win 10 in a row. Whatever. His play style just sucks to watch and for the game

Final answer
You gotta love the morons who assume that the fouls in a basketball games should be even and if they are that automatically means it was a fairly called game

Unnecessarily flopping on the ground after a pull up shot creates a hazard to the incoming defender and should not be allowed

Yall OU fans are a bunch of retards. How can anyone watch SGA play and defend him?

These threads are one big pointless circle jerk.

LOL, let's pull highlights from 40 years ago when the league let them play to justify letting one player play in the modern era.
ETA, there is no context in that clip. Many of those likely resulted in fouls and expulsions.

NBA has got to start assessing techs and fines on this shite. It’s an embarrassment.

But, I have never seen anything like the foul-hunting and flailing of SGA since prime Harden.
If he keeps it up, we might have to start posting these threads on the soccer board

One other thing I forgot to mention listening to a bunch of NBA Radio yesterday -- nearly everybody said the refs are going to adjust on Hartenstein and he will be fouled out immediately if he does what he did the other night.
Posted on 5/22/26 at 7:35 am to Bunk Moreland
Will they also adjust on Castle too? Through 2 games, he’s grabbing or holding SGA the second he crosses half court.
And I don’t blame San Antonio at all. They’re trying to do whatever it takes to slow him down.

Yeah, Eddie Johnson started screaming about all of this and was like "these guys are just trying to win, what do you want?"
It is interesting how social media is affecting how we consume and interpret sports now.
