lol.....yeah, what a fag for celebrating winning the game. Look, I'm sure Mikey is very important to you -and I'm sure its for good reason- but the physicality of basketball is off-putting for a pencil neck guy like himself, so he got prematurely wound up about what he thought was an incidental play in the game.A non-faggotWait, I thought the problem according to your post was that he celebrated. Who wouldn't celebrate that?And no fucking shit, that's the biggest problem with that "play".
The worst of CBB.
lol.......if only halo would have been around to read when the modern day crossover emerged. Things are different!!!! I don't like it!!!!Fritz is probably a big James Harden fan. Loves his ability to draw fouls. An art form.
Ah, I remember now from the grabbing and holding defense thread. You actually have the bizarre backwards opinion that this sort of thing is somehow evidence of superior athleticism and toughness and it's wimps who don't like it.

I said that he celebrated like he made a huge play. I don't consider throwing yourself backwards onto the ground "making a play".Wait, I thought the problem according to your post was that he celebrated.

The level of basketball with the greatest athleticism is also the most physical level.

That's 100% backwards, as was pointed out to you the last time we had this conversation. NBA players are insanely better defenders than college players, but Purdue style grabby hand check defense gets whistled immediately in the NBA. Because NBA defenders are good enough athletes to stay in front of the guy they're defending.The level of basketball with the greatest athleticism is also the most physical level.

If you want to try to pull off the well, actually shtick you can't be misreading sentences dude.
Defender launches himself sideways (with his feet still moving) into a dribbling offensive player and then throws himself backwards three feet like he just got hit with a wrecking ball.
You, a basketball intellectual: Well, ACTUALLY, this is an art form that should be celebrated.
Yeah, but thats because you've never played in something more than a church league. Be honest here. Any contact is a foul in those leagues.That's 100% backwards, as was pointed out to you the last time we had this conversation.

And I'll throw it back at you - anecdotally, every person I've ever played with who highly valued being hustly hand check grabby defense guy sucked at basketball.
Great praise for a post founded on a lack of understanding of the rules.Defender launches himself sideways (with his feet still moving) into a dribbling offensive player and then throws himself backwards three feet like he just got hit with a wrecking ball.

You've made like eight 100% backwards statements in this thread. I played a "church league" type game last weekend. It was a bunch of overweight middle aged dudes playing the grabbiest handsiest defense you've ever seen because they couldn't move their feet. What universe do you live in?Yeah, but thats because you've never played in something more than a church league. Be honest here.

As for the NBA, go and watch one of the playoff games (you know, when it matters and the game is played at its highest level) from last year and get back to me on which is more physical.
Who is falling backwards?

Basketball is a game for skilled athletes, not hustling tommy tryhards who can only compete by grabbing/holding. It's a beautiful game rendered ugly by tough guys like you.Great praise for a post founded on a lack of understanding of the rules.Defender launches himself sideways (with his feet still moving) into a dribbling offensive player and then throws himself backwards three feet like he just got hit with a wrecking ball.

By the way, since Fritz keeps referencing this post - you're right, you don't have to be completely stationary (obviously, otherwise you'd have to stand still while the other guy dribbled around you). You have to establish defensive position with your feet set. But the NCAA rule book specifically mentions that you can't be moving towards the player with the ball while contact occurs, which is what I was referring to - in the clip we're talking about, he throws himself into the path of the dribbler. He never establishes defensive position in front of him, because the NC State player is a superior athlete and too quick for him.Point of order: the defender doesn't have to be "set." He has to establish a legal guarding position and not be moving towards the defender. He can still move sideways or even back, but he's not required to be "set," and that's been a frequently misinterpreted part of the rules seemingly forever.The “charge” defending god knows what (the pack line?) is the worst. He clearly wasn’t set, and fell in the direction his own momentum took him with minimal contact. He had no chance of making any real play.Defender launches himself sideways (with his feet still moving) into a dribbling offensive player and then throws himself backwards three feet like he just got hit with a wrecking ball.

Grabbing? Holding? Dude, do you realize what play we're even talking about?Basketball is a game for skilled athletes, not hustling tommy tryhards who can only compete by grabbing/holding. It's a beautiful game rendered ugly by tough guys like you.Great praise for a post founded on a lack of understanding of the rules.
I like Tommy Tryhards. That's what Iowa athletics is built upon. With help during the football season from Tommy Soybean.Basketball is a game for skilled athletes, not hustling tommy tryhards who can only compete by grabbing/holding.
This is pretty apropos in the IA/WI game thread.I like Tommy Tryhards. That's what Iowa athletics is built upon. With help during the football season from Tommy Soybean.Basketball is a game for skilled athletes, not hustling tommy tryhards who can only compete by grabbing/holding.
Agreed. I’m much more into contemporary art like this.BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHe effectively ended the game with that play, ya dipshit. He forced a turnover with :18 left and NC State having a chance to tie. Drawing a charge is an art and should be celebrated, lest every vestige of defense goes by the wayside.The worst is the last one where he's all pumped up like he just made some huge play.
@FrodoTBaggin , opinions on a player celebrating drawing a charge?
The anti-charge crowd in b-ball is kinda like the "don't run to the short side of the field!" crowd in football. Just dumb.

And that's been a frequently misinterpreted part of the rules seemingly forever.
Get the fuck out of here!I hate Wisconsin so much
It’s trueGet the fuck out of here!I hate Wisconsin so much
Seriously?!?
If I remember right, ol' Fritzy is a butt fuck fagIf I remember right, ol' Fritzy's competitive knowledge is rooted in Div. 3 Iowa conference soccer.
Leave me out of this, dumb fuck!Who is falling backwards?

this dude got praised non stop by basketball writers for doing nothing but standing in someone's way and falling down and people want to tell me white privilege isn't real smh
The worst of CBB.
