The Clippers must REALLY suck at flopping then, because every single stat shows that they get shafted by the refs![]()
The entire pussified, flopping roster of the Los Angeles Clippers.

Naturally. There's always people in this world who do nothing but and point the finger at someone other than themselves when things don't go their way. Something tells me you're one of those people.
It blows my mind that noone here can see the drastic differences between the individual and team play that OKC possesses with that of some other teams and cannot seem to come to the conclusion that OKC's play individually and as a team would naturally lend itself to higher free throw attempts. I have no idea how anyone could argue this fact. Perhaps you still think OKC gets to the line too often, but how could anyone deny that they're naturally going to get there more than other teams legitimately?

Nothing like refuting historically potent stats with anecdotal "context".
"But we're athletic!"
Cha. And the NBA over the past 10 seasons has been just a bunch of Shawn Bradley wannabes.

Sure, check a few posts above that.
Nearly forgot:Collison
The Dallas Mavericks would each give their left nut to have Nick Collison on their roster at this point.
Well, here's some numerical evidence: Westbrook is 7th in the NBA in at rim shot attempts. Needless to, #'s 1-6 are not occupied by a point guard. Athletic is an understatement. Foul him or you get dunked on, period. They foul him. Deal with it.
That makes sense, the refs have stopped gifting Bryant free throws whenever contact is made. I guess they just forward them to the Thunder.![]()
Foul him, or his happens. They foul him. Deal with it.
Bryant's old. You don't have to foul him anymore. He's slower than .

Numbers are numbers. What a player does on the court tells the real story. Refute that fact.
Statistical evidence suggests KD is the best offensive player in the NBA. I provided video evidence of one of the reasons that is the case. THe video also clearly shows why a guy like KD must be guarded very aggressively and often times fouled. The result of not doing either of those things is well do ented.
Attempts at rim per NBA team:
OKC: 24.7
League average: 25.4
League high - Denver: 35.1
League low - Washington: 19.1
Let's be honest, the beef here is with KD and Westbrook's free throw attempts. KD and Westbrook account for half of those team attempts at rim. The remaining are usually dump off for easy flushes or lay ins after the defense collapses. As I stated before, KD and Westbrook (along with Wade, James) is easily the top 2 guard combo in FG attempts at the rim.
I rest my case. You reply with emoticons rather than any type of thought out opinion...the reason being you can't refute the statement.
But it would be good for him, once not being raped by Dirk!

My beef is with the ref help that your entire team gets, tbh....
They already have one scrub named Collison, they don't need another one![]()
Entire team? . Martin shoots 4 a game. Beyond him there's nothing noteworthy whatsoever in terms of free throw shooting. This is all about KD and Westbrook - and if you're denying that their style of play doesn't lend itself to getting to the line a lot, you're nuts. I'm not suggesting every single foul they draw is legit. They get some freebies, and there's also some that go uncalled. In the end, they get fouled a lot and, in total, their trips to the line are legit.
LeBron is averaging more FGA at the rim per game (6.5) than Westbrick (6.2) or Durant (5.1), yet averages the same amount of FTA per game (6.6) as Westbrick and far less FTA than Durant (8.9)...
In fact, D-Wade also gets to the rim more often than Durant (5.5 FGA at the rim per game), yet averages about 3 less FTA per game than Durant... so-called "flopper" Blake Griffin gets to the rim more often than Durant (5.3 FGA at the rim per game), yet averages about 4 less FTA per game than Durant...
Basically, your argument is bad and you should feel bad...
Clearly, the players you list just aren't as "athletic" as the Thunder, since that's his rationality for everything.![]()
of course the trips to the line are legit the fouls are the ones that are bull
