Just slow mo'd the action that created that Joe turnover...Caruso grabbed Reids off arm to disrupt the dribble then Joe's arm...not loving this game

Wolves about to move to 4-7 with Naz as a starter and lose 5 of their last 6.

Well that sucked. NAZ gave us nothing and Ant only played defense occasionally.

Yep they are allowed to play ‘physical’ but the opposing team isn’t.

I hate watching Shai fend the off defenders with his off arm and slap away defenders arms. And then he gets awarded the foul. Must drive you insane as an opposition coach.

They took that crap away from Harden, but instead transferred it to SGA

At least Ant gets fouled the old fashioned way. He just goes hard to the hoop and tries to make the shot versus trying to on purposely get his arms tangled up with the defender or throwing his arms into their body. It's just gross.

And the thing about SGA (and Harden before him) is that he is good enough where he doesn't need to pull that chicanery. He'd still be an MVP candidate without the B.S.

I'm not sure I've ever seen a player from a small market get such a kind whistle

Conley showed us how to counter it, just sell the push off.
