Regular season basketball in LA: Your Boss Angeles Lakers vs the Denver nuggets

[TheNig]

Contact above the shoulders = Flagrant foul


They could have called a FF2 on him if they wanted, but it was clear he was making a play on the ball.

see... this is what i'm tryan understand about this Flagrant foul shyt.


i always figured that if it looked intentional than it has to be a flagrant 2.

Kobe said he talked to Pau already and will talk to Andrew about getting in the mind state of having to perform with "no other option."

Had Kobe hit him on the arms instead and he fell it would just be a foul, you just can't make contact above the shoulders.

It doesn't have to look intentional to get a flagrant 2, if you knock someone out accidentally while clearing out with your elbows even if you didn't see them it's a flagrant 2. If it's reckless they can call a 2 on you, even if you were going for the ball.

he deserves better. the fact that he was sick as a dog and was the only one who showed up says everything you need to know about the last couple years

What's talkin to bytchnum gonna do? He ain't built like that, send his ass to the D-Fenders so he can dominate and get the ball like he always dreamed of. Better yet, I'll take anything from the Bobcats just to see Jordan shyt on gaynum every day of his life and break him worse than he did Hollywood Cake.

this is the discussion me and Bomani Jones are having right now. i dont think it was intentional nor do i believe it was reckless. he thinks it was a reckless act.


i'm saying to him, how can it be deemed reckless without any intent.


'preciate it. i think i finally understand this flagrant shyt now

I seriously want a coupla pipe hittin nikkaz off Colfax to snatch those two fakkit bigs we got and go to work on them with a blow torch and some pliers. I wouldn't be mad if we lost the series as long as that were to happen.

If a player is in front of you and is going for a dunk, just about any real attempt to block that shot is probably going to be a flagrant 2. I've seen flagrant 2s and ejections result from plays that look pretty close to being clean blocks. It's a real dangerous play because both players involved are probably going to go down hard. I think the NBA more or less tries to discourage that play entirely.

Shiiit, they can toss in Tyrus retarded self. He prolly got more basketball sense than our so-called coach.

i compare every flagrant 2 call to Bynum knocking Barea on his ass. if it dont look that ugly then flagrant 1 that muhthafukka and KIM.

That wasn't a flagrant 2 as far as Im concerned, he made a clear and obvious play on the ball and it wasn't reckless. If he grabbed his shoulders or something like that while he was airborne then Bomani would have a case, he swiped at the ball first and foremost.
