I've been saying the same for a while

Now that we're at a TO... how do people feel about not allowing those types charges in the paint? Shoulder dips, ala Shaq, in the paint would still be offensive fouls though.

I think Haliburton's injury has made him more cautious so he's not playing as loose as he normally does which at times can lead to TOs

100% not a charge. He was in the air clearly before he stopped moving

1 leg was moving, the other was established and Williams barrels straight into the middle of his chest. Seen those calls go in favor of the defender tons of times.

That's simply because block/charge is one of the hardest calls to make in real time, and even sometimes in replay it's like "ahh, maybe, kinda close".

It that is reviewed it 100% goes for the offensive player because he was in the air. They might mess up the real time call but that doesn’t make that 50/50

I am all in on the Toppin minutes. The guy is a top tier athlete and you need that in this series.

5 fouls for OKC 1 foul for Pacers so far in the 1st quarter, hmm.

Pacers have been better on the boards for most of the series. That can be the key if they also limit their turnovers.

I need a replay on that Wiggins foul. I thought that was hand/ball not wrist.

Guys go on the road and immediately throw up bricks. Wallace needs to get that out of his system.
