[QUOTE=KKittles30;14273555]The Pelicans making shots has nothing to do with the treatment Lillard was getting ...I bet he’s going to start avg. double digit FT attempts a game now. Joining the top 5 serial offenders.[/QUOTE]
We have seen worse bro stop crying about one game. Others getting 50 by shooting 25+ free throws. The man was 13/20 from the field. He needed no special treatment. He is a bucket whether you like it or not.

Lillard is a lot like Trae Young. He foul baits all the time near 3 point line.

[QUOTE=KKittles30;14273456]Lillard endlessly flails and flops everywhere all the time , all game and gets EVERY call. It was blowing my mind how many BS calls he was getting it felt like watching the 2006 NBA Finals all over again. He gets all these cheap fouls early to make sure the opposing team is in the penalty [B]then he starts chucking endless bad shots[/B] knowing teams can't even breathe on him at the ends of quarters. It was embarrassing to watch.[/QUOTE]
Sounds like Lillard.
Re: There is a new "D-Whistle" in the NBA after watch New Orleans vs. Portland tonigh
you know what separates tier2/3 guards from tier 1 guards like harden and lillard?
elite playmaking is one, but it's also foul baiting...you'll rarely see a 50pt game without a shitload of FTAs, it's the inorganic state of the nba and superstars.
Re: There is a new "D-Whistle" in the NBA after watch New Orleans vs. Portland tonigh
Didnt watch the game yet but the problem is league wide. It is too easy to jump into a defender and get to the line.

Lillard isn't an elite playmaker, but he's become a great foul baiter. Plus he knows when to do it. Whenever a team hits a huge shot, or when his chucking isn't working and he starts bricking everything he'll start hurling himself into defenders.

Like I said, the league's best players have received coddling from the refs since 1992, and you want to gripe about something obvious?
