Game 31--Jazz at Houston. (allegedly)

Yep. And Malone was a big man in a day when people actually posted up. And there were a lot of times they just fouled him instead of letting him get straight to the basket.

Nobody tries to foul Harden. He has to draw every foul which makes his ratios that much more nauseating.

I remember him and Buck Williams was basically a steel cage wrestling match. Either guy could have fouled out in the first quarter.
 
Don't blow layups and hitting free throws help too lol

Officials were uneven but this... Rudy blew a layup and 4 straight free throws missed to start the fourth from dm and ingles... were killer.

Also... why doesn’t Harden get techs? He slapped the ball out of Rudy hand on a dead ball which was a tech... then shoved Rudy as he’s trying to give him the “chill bruh” pat in the back. Like WTF... also I wanted them to review that and see that he grabbed at his stomach and there was zero extra bs.

I've never seen a player more catered to in the NBA than James Harden. Maybe MJ.

I've watched that travel a couple times this morning, and it just infuriates me that the NBA allows that to happen. If they can use replay to see if a ball barely grazes a finger, why can't they say, yep, travel before the foul - Utah ball?

It was an incredible display of missed layups in the 2nd quarter.
 
News flash: Most of the fouls against Harden are actually fouls. Most of the times fans think Harden is traveling, he is not (one notable exception on blown call yesterday). Most fans do not remotely understand the traveling rules.

There was another guy who knew exactly how to exploit the rules and draw fouls in underhanded ways. His last name was Stockton.

Really? Did you read the post a few before yours about the ratio of field goals vs free throws? If you truly believe what you posted then put some stats where your mouth is and post Stockton's ratio of field goals to free throws. I'm guessing that harden and Stockton aren't even close.

Do you know Stockton's #'s?

Stockton attempted 13,658 field goals
He attempted 5,796 free throws

It took me two minutes to find this info on the internet.... less time than it took you to get huffy in your last two posts and then walk away without contributing your own evidence.

We do that.. Rudy missed a dunk and a layup last night. Spacing will help guys finish as it is harder to contest when shooters are on the floor.

The good news is the offense was ugly AF and we still almost beat Houston on the road and it took a monster Harden game. Houston is toast unless CP shows he can stay on the court and play at a high level. Dude looked washed and he’s been a Jazz killer in the past.

@fishonjazz

The original comps were fg made to ft made.

Stockton made 7,039 fgs and made 4,788 fts.

Noas' bad on that one but ya, point is that harden is treated better by the refs than everyone else.

Thanks for getting the correct info.
