    I know because I watch a ton of basketball, and I am very intellectual person with an aspect for attention to detail. I KNOW because I CAN SEE HIM NOT DOUBLE DRIBBLING. AND HENCE HE ALSO DOESN'T GET CALLED FOR IT. got.

    I said it is tricky watching it on TV. Key word "TRICKY".

    So watching a " ton" of basketball has made you an intellectual?

    You can do anything you want on the first dribble, before you've moved your feet. After that, if you put your hand under the ball and then roll it over, you've carried. Your example of just catching the ball doesn't matter. That should be pretty easy for an intellectual to understand.

    I just picked the first clip I could find of Steph, and clipped the first carry I could find. Doing this lets him do things with the ball he could never do with a legal dribble. I could find LOTS of worse examples. I may even have some of the old pics I posted before. Doesn't matter. It happens in the NBA on most every possession. Curry is just able to take advantage of it better than most. He's a damn good player, doing what damn good players do.

    I was talking about that specific play batmanu was talking about. Not this play you stupid . What don't you get?

    That's why the NFL's product s on the NBA. The NFL promotes the NFL as a whole .The NBA promotes players. They're not trying to sell you basketball, they're trying to sell you players. The Texans could play Lions in the superbowl and the numbers would still be large. If the Hawks played the Grizz in the Finals, how much do you think the league would promote it. , it wouldn't even get that far because they'd do all they could to keep one of the teams out. The last NBA finals I remember without a "superstar" that the league has promoted heavily or tried to make a face of the league was 2005.
    Just for comedy I hope one day we get to see two small market teams such as Utah vs Milwaukee finals. It would be funny to see talking heads like Stephen A Smith cry. I know Silver and sports media would be in tears having to cover that finals.

    The guy never fully touches the basketball with his hands. People watching from TV can be tricked.
    Exactly

    I've been noticing this for a long time now. If there's a loose ball, he'll go gather it on a dribble or two and then he'll clutch the ball. Then he'll start an entirely new dribble as if he hadn't already dribble. And the refs let him get away with it all the time. Once, I saw a ref call it; and he was pissed. He either doesn't know the rule, or he thinks it's just something one should not be called on.
    Superstar treatment

    Does Porker get away with it?
