Soft flagrant foul. Wish it could just be an obvious common foul.

Indy has a chance without one.


Maybe Detroit but even then they had two HOFers and All NBAers in Billups and Wallace. If Halliburton stays healthy and consistent he's a HOFer

It's a flagrant to me, but it's a good hard foul by Nesmith, if for no other reason that you need to make the Thunder make their buckets.

People really don't understand that so much about the NBA is time and place. One player who looks mediocre on one team might be a completely different player in a different environment. The best coaches and GM's can identify who those guys would be on their teams.

Maybe 2004 Pistons?
1994 Rockets?
