Just wait till Zach fills out, 15lbs of muscle and some experience and he’ll be a bully.

Draymond is a crybaby and Durant is a whiny bitch. No thanks.

When his leg diameter doubles to 2 inches, he'll finally need a straw when he drinks a protein shake.

I'm re-watching the game (the ESPN feed) and the Green foul probably was a good cal, imho. He ramped himself up for the foul, and it was obviously done to send a message.

I thought it was borderline, I didnt see any contact to the face, was there any?

I believe that's the requirement for flagrant 2 fouls, not flagrant 1. It wasn't a natural foul motion.

I looked it up cause I wasnt 100% sure.

I agree Draymonds intent was definitely a send a message type of foul. I thought it was borderline in terms of a flagrant. Thats an odd position for a defender, you dont foul hard enough its an and one, you foul too hard and its flagrant. I thought during the game I wouldnt of called it flagrant, its close though and Kerrs fake outrage was fun to watch.

The fact that he didn't even jump showed me that he wasn't really making a basketball play, just looking to make a hit.

Lots of guys intentionally foul though. It was a “hard” foul definitely and hey it worked out for the Blazers so I guess its good with me.

 

[SIeepwalker]

Video in the link shows KD, Klay, and Draymond all talking trash to ZC from the bench at the end of the game. KD saying "you're dead!'

How can 3 dicks be pussies ?

IMO the NBA should have an intentional foul rule.

I could name at least 3 or 4 posters on here I would LOVE TO INTENTIONALLY FOUL!

Nobody here wants to know about your sexual preferences.

Like the intentional walk rule in baseball? Where you don't actually have to throw 4 balls anymore, but just say that you are intentionally walking the batter. So just yell FOUL really loud?

No.

Intentional foul is penalized like a flagrant 1.

It means you intended to foul. You did not intend to make a basketball play on the ball.

 

[julius]

It's weird to see all those long time Laker fans acting like their lives have value because a team they like is winning.

Er, I mean Warrior fans...

Good. I wasn't sure where you were going with that.

We can nickname them the "strap-ons", you know, 3 pussies acting like dicks.
Or not. Please don't send Sly the $50.

Serious question, as a ref and player, do you think there's a place for the "I'm stopping the basket from occurring and ensuring an and-1 doesn't happen, but I don't really want to hurt the guy" foul? Or is it that dudes Draymond's size can't really make #1 happen without some chance of #2?

Now that is a fragrant foul.

Eww

Maybe Draymond has a kidney stone.

I think the guy attempting to stop someone needs to play actual defense. Make a defensive play on the ball. I don't like unnecessary contact. I think the assessment of the types of fouls need to happen across the board. IMHO lots of flagrant 1 calls could simply be called intentional fouls and then there would be a line of demarcation between the terms flagrant and intentional.

I don't have an answer to your question, but in this instance Green clearly intended to send a message with a hard foul. The Warriors lying and crying about it was pathetic.
