Reading through this thread brings me so much happiness this morning. I don't know if there's anyone that hates Crayton as much as I do. Cockbrenner is soft and Traudt belongs at UNK. I love it. I need a picture of Ashworth laying there in pain.
Nothing like kicking your leg out to try and draw a foul and you roll your ankle because of it.

I don't really want people to get hurt but I am glad to see some karma for shooters sticking their leg out trying to bait calls. Too much of basketball has become playing in a way to try and get calls instead of playing the game.

I completely agree with this. It’s frustrating how much of basketball has shifted from actually playing the game to gaming the system for fouls. It cheapens the sport and takes away from the skill and integrity of real competition.

I honestly believe it started with Duke back in the 90s and all of their flopping and getting charges. There should really be a flagrant called when shooters kick out their legs.

The NCAA tried to do this a couple years ago with the flopping call, but it fell off. Fred's first season Kavas was called twice for kicking his legs out during a shot.
