And Paddy Mills went from 1-1 shooting to 2-12.
Well it clearly is a foul and Manu is smart enough to know he’s too close and drew the foul. It’s a charge basically. You let people run over you they will be glad to. Manu was badass tonight. We lose without his play.Sure, but this time only you don't like it. How are you going to change the rules to Say that a guy walking all over another one isn't a foul?
Nah, I think I have proven I'm not a poster that let's likes/dislikes influence his takes. I just don't see how you can change the rules to Say that's not a foul.

Manu was a badass... especially on that 3rd quarter...
Bad game from Tony, yet, much better than Fatty...
Just about every player in this league is better than Fatty, tbh.
He missed badly a defensive switch sometime in the first half.
We had better have a playoff spot nailed down before that last game. If we are still neck-and-neck with the Pels, they will curb-stomp us.
Seriously. I don't even think that random ass leprechaun poster from the 2012-14 years who posted as a die hard Patty fan would show his face now.
Damn, I forgot we finish the season against those ers again. Just like 2015.
Couldn’t agree more...vintage badassness!
Differnce-maker tonight tbhClutchest player in franchise history. MVParker and his daggers
Hopefully NOT just like 2015.
Yeah hopefully with not that much on the line....did we drop from 3 to 6 or something?
Now you're making a different argument. Anyway, it wouldn't be hard to implement a rule saying that's a foul. It would likely be subjective like charge/block calls, but even just the potential of that being called an offensive foul would deter players from doing it.
It would be very much like block/charge. Unfortunately those have become a mess.
Literally from the post you previously quoted:
Sure, but this time only you don't like it. How are you going to change the rules to Say that a guy walking all over another one isn't a foul?The rule for determing if a foul is a Charge or a block isn't subjective, wachu talkin bout Willis?Anyway, it wouldn't be hard to implement a rule saying that's a foul. It would likely be subjective like charge/block calls, but even just the potential of that being called an offensive foul would deter players from doing it.
Either way, that Paul/Manu play can already be called a foul. If the guy gets into the path of the defender, that is getting back on D, without giving him enough time to react it's a foul on the offensive player. Just like it's a block foul on a guy that is trying to take a Charge, despite being perfectly still, if he doesn't give the offensive player enough time/space.
They could stand to be cleaned up, but they aren't any worse than any other call. Plus, these "reverse charges" wouldn't be nearly as frequent or ambiguous. It's natural for the offense and defense to clash facing each other. It's rare for them to do so moving in the same direction, especially in the back court.
Hopefully we party like its 1999.
That's a different argument from the part you didn't bold, which was what you originally came out with.
Yes it is. There a rule on the books and some official markers for when a charge cannot be called, but whether a guy is in time, whether the offensive player initiated the contract, yadda yadda, is up to the interpretation of the official.The rule for determing if a foul is a Charge or a block isn't subjective, wachu talkin bout Willis?
1) Never seen anything saying it can be called a foulEither way, that Paul/Manu play can already be called a foul.
2) Manu totally and deliberately dribbled into Davis path, took the hit and fell over like a sedan hit him.
Skip to the 40-second mark.
We should collaborate on a Spotify playlist. Another good one!
I'm so out of it I don't know a damn thing about Spotify but I'm sure that would be fun.We should collaborate on a Spotify playlist. Another good one!
Unfortunately true. Yeah, I don't see this kind of thing being any harder to call than a lot of calls that get botched on a routine basis. I would like like to see a return to the rules.
Of course Manu deliberately dribbled into Davis' path, just like he deliberately put himself in Davis' way to take the Charge in the previous play. That isn't the matter though. The matter is giving the walking player enough time space to avoid the contact, if he doesn't avoid it, it's his fault and, therefore, his foul.
