Every 1/2/3 needs to go to the school of finishing by Kyrie. Done wonders for Jaylen

How can Love trip into Morris's legs if they're not beyond him? His foot tripped Love's, that's what they called. Perhaps it's a judgement as to how far the leg was out, but at this point, it's an argument of whether one is a metre or five metres off a cliff. Either way, you're falling.
Its called stepping into your shot. You're telling me there is no forward motion on anyone's jump shot? Guess you never seen what a real leg kick is if this is your definition of a leg kick.
I don't disagree about natural motion, but the consequences - Love's landing space being impeded - influenced what normally is not called. It's not about intending to 'kick', nor about my definition of a leg kick, but about what the refs called and why.
Not every player has such a shooting motion where they get a natural forward foot motion ie/ Bird who was exceptionally compact shooting the 3, barely lifting his feet, but some players ie/Kawhi who actually often lands with his feet quite wide apart on Js, so he has to be careful about where he lands.
Look it is a foul in the rule book. They dusted it off and called it mostly, I think, because it had the effect of Love not being able to land, unintentional though it was. Otherwise, they'd have likely let it go as they usually do. Harder to ignore in this instance.
So you must feel this is an offensive foul:

JVG makes me want to watch basketball. I seriously love it when he's calling a game.
In '03-'04, Jerry Sloan coached the ESPN predicted "worst team of all time" to 42-40.

He and Breen are a good crew. JVG gets off topic sometimes and stop calling the game, but for the most part they are great. Plus you never know when JVG is going to say something awkwardly outrageous like that second cousin stuff.
