Rivers did go off in an earlier game. And you blew your load over a regular season game. You're right how could I forget that game, since Blake was traded almost right after![]()
He shuffled to get behind the 3 line. He could've settled for 2 without the travel and have an actual legitimate highlight play.
He pushed off too....it was a nice move, but nowhere near the ankle-breaking, life ending, GOAT moment that people are making it out to be.
Agreed. Kellerman already called it the GOAT cross in a reg season game smh
When did they come out and say that? I'm pretty sure you can't just hop-skip backwards, then shoot.
What's shocking is how obvious this one is. Travels while driving to the basket that don't get called are easier to excuse, because they happen so quickly. This stuff is blatant, and provides a HUGE advantage to the offensive player.
Gee... I wonder who the NBA is always going to side with: their fake manufactured "superstar" Frauden, or career journeyman Wesley Johnson?
Travels and palming hardly ever get called. I guess people don't remember the LeBron crab dribble.
You root for a team built around Frauden and CP0 and coached by D'Antoni. You don't get to accuse others of blowing their load over regular-season games.
You're the one leaking over one move in a regular season game. Pathetic. But keep the issue alive guy.
If by "leaking," you mean pointing out that he pushed off and then traveled, then sure. What time is the parade for Frauden's Regular Season Crossover Championship?
It's funny you are acting like I'm personally hyping it. Again, whether Harden or if it was anyone else who pulled that move, I'm not going to sit and complain about a pushoff, that happens in games, pickup games etc. Wesley didn't seem to complain about a pushoff![]()
BTW, even your boy LeBron praised it . So chill the out.
Wes isn't a crybaby. In contrast, the Rockets went crying to the league earlier this season and protested the game because we beat them.
Unlike you. And didn't that game they let someone play with 6 fouls? But it matters not. Blake got his ass shipped out that's pretty satisfying.
Can't lie, it was
You know he would have dribbled it off his foot out of bounds if it was May, though![]()
Iverson knew how to do it right imo
seems debatable. Much less debatable than LeBron's crab dribble. Or CP3's pivots and then dribbles. A pivot used to be able to take away your ability to dribble again.
basketball is dead sons, just accept it tbh. the level of help these supposed "stars" like flopden get is absolutely aberrant. The refs have become book lawyers instead of whistling the game, they whistle to cover their ass. They're not even whistling basketball plays, they just whistle the rulebook. Even in povertyball you get a yellow card for blatant diving smh. MJ got a lot of calls back in the days but SMH that looked to get to the rim and score, not to contort himself to get in the best position to fall akwardly and get a ft. what harden is doing isn't even basketball tbh, you take flop protected slashing and you're left with a great 3p shooter + passer with no defense .. just another 18-22ppg star/allstar, nothing more,a derozan. But with the ungodly advantage of receiving a ft for every aberant non-basketball play he gets 30.
tbh we live in an era where the player signature moves are either violations, moves against the spirit of the game or 3pters : harden flop, dubeta ripthrough, giannis travel, cucky 3. what a pussified league smh.
if they'd let the defense play honestly (and i'm not talking hand checking) these s would have a massive offensive dropoff.
of course the league is pushing this style of play because it appeals to casuals, pussies and idiots. The midgetball gook market, the market and the corporate soft boy market are the holy trinity for NBA's pocket, exactly the type of gots who rarely play, dress up to play and call every imaginable in their favor while being as dirty as they can. It's a game for sour losers. That's why the ticky tacky players are so loved by those groups. 20 years ago these losers couldn't even play in a game because none of the from today would've ever flied : ticky tacky fouls, blatant travel as a go-to move, fear of physical but fair contact.
Tbh y'all sons better pray lebrick plays more seasons because after him there is nobody in the position to take the mantle.
Also lol @djon, exactly the type of of fan marketed for by the nba. Cue in standard passive aggresive loser remark about basketball being a game of skill .. these gots are hopeless smh![]()
btw Harden obviously pushed off on that play. Similar to the Jordan last shot play (on Bryon Russell).
i dont think it was a push off... he held his right arm out there but i dont think he extended it. look at wes's feet as he fell... it tripped, it wasn't the result of any push
Same exact play under review a couple games ago the nba said it wasn’t a travel. Given how people here hate on harden for drawing fouls but worship the GOAT flopper and pioneer Ginobili I don’t expect anything . The push off folks are even worse...you’re allowed to protect the ball with your offhand, he didn’t use any extra motion apart from his natural body momentum. Have fun though.
Someone gets it. But then again, the bar for spurfan in this thread is low
