Its an intelligent move to combat going over a screen.

Rockets had 59 rebounds to our 36.
How does that even happen against a bad rebounding team?

Thx. It's been a while and I've has a few head injuries in the time since so my memory is hit-and-miss.

Man y'all weak AF for them sucidal jokes. I despise the Rockets and Ryno was being a hoe, but any person that jokes about death is childish and I'll smack the frick out off.

It is a shooting foul.. he gets hit on the arms when he pulls up to shoot.
Players usually try to change their shot when a hand goes up so that they don't get blocked.
Harden instead goes up and purposely doesn't move out of the way so that the defender hits his arm.
I would probably defend my guys too. However, this is some pretty bad spin for why that isn't a swing through. He extends his left arm out to the defender and hooks them. So it's either a swing thru or not in the act of shooting.

I'll give it to him, Harden is the master of drawing extremely cheap touch fouls. And I understand he's playing in the confines of imperfect rules. He's in the argument for MVP but to me as an NBA fan it really cheapens his game.

Tell the Pels to stop reaching to get around the screen and they wouldn't foul Harden.
It's a cheap tactic but it's 100% a foul.
Tell Harell, Ryno, and Nene to stop setting moving screens and hipchecking the defenders into Harden so he can fake a foul. It is bullshite for the refs to go lax on illegal screens and at the same time call the incidental contact of Harden super strict.

He's the least enjoyable NBA "star" to watch.

That's not why they get called for the foul. It's because they use their arms to reach to fight over the top of the screen and Harden uses their flailing arms to create contact.

as much as I cannot stand Harden drawing the foul. directory is pretty impressive how he can do it
sure the picker does lean and create contact but as soon as the defender reaches around the pick Harden has the ability to react and shot drawing the foul.

Even as I rocket fan I can see how it would drive other fan nuts but he isn't just flopping. He draws contact and uses his strength, footwork and balance better than anyone.
At this point, I just feel bad that are blinded by hate towards harden, the rockets, boom or Houston cause harden is having the best offensive season ever in pounts (averaging 57.7 points per game in points+ assist)

Harden has been hated since he started playing like a bitch a few seasons ago. Anderson flopping against Cousins several times last night doesn't help them either.

Anderson didn't flop. The 3 times people thought he flopped, he got elbowed in the face on the first one, the second one Boogie's head hit Anderson's lip when he was backing Anderson down, and the 3rd one wasn't Boogie's fault... Anderson rolled and sprained his ankle and went down. It was reported that Anderson's ankle was visibly swollen and he was staying long after everyone else left to get treatment.
Not a single one of those were flops.

They weren't. The only way you can deny is if you're being a homer. Elbow to the face, accidental headbutt, and he rolled his ankle.
Posted on 3/25/17 at 11:54 am to PrimeTime Money
I was there in person right behind the basket where it happened. The second one was definitely a flop or at least an exaggeration. It's okay to admit it.
Also loved how much the crowd hated Boogie. Every boo he earned from those idiots made me love him that much more

The outrage here shouldn't be about Ryno flopping or not flopping but the presumption of guilt on Cousins by the officials. I'm not sure another player would have triggered that review where as you said, Ryno went down because he rolled his own ankle.
I don't think I've ever considered Cousins a dirty player before he was a Pel and haven't seen any evidence of that since he got here, but the officials assumed that Ryno was on the floor because Cousins did something flagrant/technical foul worthy.
The way officials treat Cousins isn't just unfair, it should be embarrassing to the league.

Totally agree. I feel like he's on the verge of being ejected on every possession and it's ludicrous.
Posted on 3/25/17 at 1:29 pm to TigerinATL
Maybe these reviews will open their eyes that there's nothing going on but Anderson being a flopping bitch
