Just a note for some people, a defender falling on the ground is not an automatic offensive foul.

Flagrant on Giannis for pulling an Olynyk

Common foul, Grant didn’t try to hurt him

Obviously Giannis initiated the contact, charged Williams and took him down. Not a basketball play!

Giannis tried to pull an Olynyk/Sergio Ramos on Grant Williams. No place in the game for that.

Should be a flag 1 on Giannis for jerking the arm.

Looked to me like Giannis was bracing for impact.

You'll never get it out of my head that whatever the rulebook says supposedly, those NBA refs are going by my rule as I learned it in another country a million years ago: If you plant your feet and absorb the contact it will hurt, but the refs will call a charge, if you're moving or backpedalling they won't. Grant Williams plants his feet and gets rewarded, Rob Williams doesn't and he doesn't. It happens again and again.

Perfect way to take a hard clean foul by Grant and respect to Giannis for not crying like a little B like most players would.

Should be flagrant 1. Didn't make a play on the ball just wrapped a guy up. That's the type of foul that should be flagrant since it's not a basketball play.

Why are these kind of fouls a common foul. This isnt attempting to get the ball, that is just purely hugging and stopping players, the game shouldnt be about that.

These type of fouls should be flagrant 1
