The Knicks offense has soared to new heights under Mike Brown. Consider the jump they've taken so far in the playoffs compared to last season's stagnant offense and low quality shots. Reg Szn: 118.7 Playoffs: 122.9 Last Year Reg Szn: 117.3 Playoffs: 112.7 thx to @coach_paint for the graphics!

@ceconner @NBA This one would cause concern for any shooter when they feel contact by a defender to his feet while on the way down. And the refs don't get fooled that often so it doesn't seem worth everyone getting triggered

Please, before firing off a reply, just consider that this continues to be more evidence that foot to foot contact by a defender is always a foul on the defender when they're not in legal guarding position.

@LeSenateur_ In the post I clearly say it wasn't enough to merit a call. So what are we doing here

@bballbreakdown You’re not disagreeing with the call. What you did there was explaining the factors that caused the wrong call. Basically giving the refs excuses. Which reinforces the sentiment that they’re reffing on the basis of ‘Whenever in doubt, give SGA the call’

So this is what happens when the referee gets "stacked" to the play and can't see exactly what's going on. Any amount of lower body contact wasn't enough to merit a foul on this, and could've made SGA felt like he was going to land on a foot, but here's a good example of what non OKC fans are so upset about

This is why it's dangerous for folks who aren't deeply familiar with the rulebook to dip their toe into it like this. If you keep digging around, it will become abundantly clear that a defender putting their foot in the path of a dribbler and causing them to lose balance is a defensive foul

@bballbreakdown No it isn’t. That’s not a rule. This is the real rule: Rule 12 - Section II - c: “The dribbler must be in control of his body at all times. If illegal contact occurs, the responsibility is on the dribbler.”

@GeorgeCGaskell All this sounds reasonable but defenders can be called for fouls when they're not the ones "initiating" the contact

@bballbreakdown Fox planted his left foot on a spot that was 1-2 feet from where SGA’s feet left the floor. Fox never moved closer to SGA from this moment on. In fact, he used that left leg to push himself away from SGA and pivot around him. Fox simply did not initiate contact.

@2Realforthis92 Big caveat: most folks who disagree with rule based analysis don't actually know the rules. And to answer the question: the landing space foul requires the contact to be prior to landing. Anything before that is just a shooting foul.

Not every time you tweet your opinion, are people gonna fully agree with it. And what’s the rule on People jumping into the space and then jumping out of that space. (Legit question) Fox definitely gets underneath him as SGA is rising up. That’s when the minimal contact happens with SGA’s foot and Fox’s knee. Then, after that contact is when Fox slipped to the side, and then SGA fall, which he obviously did because he thought Fox was still underneath him.
BBALLBREAKDOWN@bballbreakdown

@2Realforthis92 @Real_Hauss Well your take is shittier since there was no landing space component to this foul as the defender was clear of that area when SGA landed.

@AugustShea @young_eddo There actually was enough contact to cause him to rotate in the air a little. I couldn't care less what a player does after a foul. And the refs don't reward him when he falls a lot of the time. So this fear that he's duping the refs is really unfounded

@bballbreakdown @young_eddo Bball yo that’s wild to defend this type of behavior. This type of behaviors is curbed in open gym because I would shove him to the floor on every jumper after this.

Paramount is apparently trying to suppress copies of "Only in Monroe" from appearing on other social platforms by filing frivolous copyright notices, even though the show was produced by a public access TV channel and doesn't use their intellectual property...

Just one day after ending "The Late Show" on CBS, Stephen Colbert returned to TV — to host a public access show with rocker Jack White in Monroe, Michigan. Appearances by Jeff Daniels, Eminem and Steve Buscemi.

@RadioFreeTom Fun fact: Jonathan Banks was my Beverly Hills Little League coach in 1982, a few years before he was in Beverly Hills Cop.

I need you non-athletes to jump in the air and have somebody clip your legs even a little bit and see if you can land correctly. These terrible ass basketball accounts have gotten too much love for shitty basketball takes. That is 100% a foul. Fox lands in his landing space that’s why there’s even marginal contact. Y’all need somebody to break their damn leg before a foul is called

@Salsainglesa FWIW, I've found it strange how he didn't get a few more calls on his 3pt shots

@wavegodbouz @lilfolks_74_ So two things can be true: there is a little bit of contact to the lower leg, and since SGA isn't looking down, he's concerned about landing on the defender's foot and falls

@TheRealDonnie Well, on this play, he was tripped, no flop. And it's insane that we can't just enjoy the best WCF we've had in 10 years

@bballbreakdown Flop flop flop.. it's crazy that they only thing people are talking about is flopping. Not, "great game", or "that was a nail biter" or even "great performance from ****" It's all about flopping and terrible calls. Everyone talking technicalities instead of performance
