Jazz @ Lakers: NBATV 9:30 Central Time

Charges pretty much never happen on accident. The defensive player has to decide that he's going to "take" a charge and fall on the ground to sell it.

That said, I'd love some of our guys to take a charge now and then. You've got to use as many tools, angles, tricks as possible to get an edge.

It should be outlawed for help defenders to draw charges. One of the most dangerous plays and is boring to watch.

Hear, hear. I wish the NBA would do away with this rule, I hate it. NBA refs even call charges if the defender moves into position once the offensive player leaves the ground; how the hell is the offensive player supposed to avoid contact in that situation?

Then, once the NBA has gotten rid of this rule, they shold get rid of the rule (or practice) of allowing offensive players to jump into defenders (thus initiating contact)and calling the foul on the defense.

While they are at it, they need to eliminate the rule that allows offensive players to sweep their arms and ball underneath the defender's arm and then raising to shoot; once again initiating the contact but benefitting from refs calling a shooting foul.
 
This was awesome. I hate Boler and Harprings "Oh My Moment" crap.

All of this.
And it seems like common sense. Can't believe things haven't changed already.

"That's what I'm taking about right there. That's what I'm talking about right there." Is so much better than "oh my, moment"

Smd.

I had a nice streak going last year and GS ended it. If Burks was back maybe I'd have considered it. Was catching heat for the GT girls too, figured I'd give it a lil break.

You have to have faith brother...lucky charms aren't afraid of anything. Don't keep it bottled up.

Gonna guess Gobert has pretty significant splits on his home vs away free throws. I've only seen a few games, but he has looked far more confident at home than on the road. The crowds can get him pretty rattled at that line, which is understandable.
