Don't mind them, just a few furious that Nash stole MVP from their favorite players. Ain't got shyt to do with what was posted.

Then they'll throw in CP3s, Dames etc and call it a draw when neither player does that as frequently as Trae last night. So that tells me nobody that responded actually watched the game last night and just watched the clip posted or more than likely haven't watched a Hawks game in general so far. Even Nique called the shyt questionable.

They've only played the Nets once and there's complaints about his whistle the past 3 games which the number show, yet I'm trash and biased lol

These dudes just post shyt to post

The post doesn't show any jumping backwards though, shyt's basically saying a guard can't pull up coming off a screen.

all that shyt would stop if the refs didn't reward it & that only happens if the NBA starts back allowing more physical play

I dunno.. it depends and can become like reffing Shaq.

If you bait someone into running into you, and they literally run into... who should get penalized? If that's a no call and defenders can run into you now, then should pushing off by an offensive player (to balance it out) be a no-call as well?

Do you still call the swing through bait move that KD does (but that Duncan was doing since 2003)? Or that D-Whistle pump fake lean-in foul draw he made infamous in 2006 (but that everyone does now)? If the answer to any of it is well it depends, then they're basically back at square one.

When the NBA allowed more physical play, one team took it too far and Jordan/all the other star players went to the commish and told him to dead that shyt. So the same cycle would happen again.

That's the only example I could easily find. At some point somebody will make a collage like they've done to Harden I'm sure.

I get the point you're making mentioning those two, especially CP3. That's just a heads up play involving the defender getting a little too aggressive and taking advantage. Trae's is different because he's looking to initiate contact as his offense and jumping backwards into his man wanting the refs to bail him out, this happened over 6 times last night. And the one or two times when they don't do it he looks fukking ridiculous.

I don't have a problem with him trying to be Harden as long as he's going home with Harden every April/May. Everyone know's there was problems with Luka last year, it's almost like refs know Luka's too fat to do any of that shyt rn so they went next in line and decided to reward this shyt.

I'll watch more Atlanta games to better judge.

Random but the NBA should be ashamed of how awful the US version of League Pass is.

Mumbai League Pass is great, plus I get NBATV

So yeah while it's a feel good story that the Hawks have a good young player, one that gets the star's whistle at that, this is disgusting and makes him and that team hard to watch.

Your own idol yelling that isn't basketball should make you feel a way. This happened multiple times last night and I bet if I looked at their games played so far, this Harden move would be behind his inflated scoring total. Not surprising Harden & him are both 1 & 2 in free throw attempts rn

I hate that fukking call, it's bullshyt and Trae gets away with it so much
