Bjelly was not good defensively last night, but the guy almost NEVER gets the benefit of the doubt from the refs. It has to be frustrating for him.

Seriously. I know I mentioned the Dieng "travel" vs. the James no-travel earlier... but does every team have a guy like Dieng and/or Belly that sure seems to be on the WRONG end of call after call after call?
How many times over the past two seasons has Belly or Dieng been called for that exact same type of travel? It seems alarmingly frequent.
I'm a mostly mild-mannered guy, but I think I would occasionally go apeshit crazy if I was a 7-footish mostly unknown foreigner in the NBA. They seem to get very little love... comically so when you see how much liberty the stars have.
Obviously, this is nothing new in the NBA. And hopefully, KAT starts to get more ticky tack calls moving forward as ASG berths and maybe All NBA games pile up.
