Lightbulb Just my two cents.

JR,

I am with you on this one. I do not agree with that at all. Do not get me wrong, if two players foul a shooter, I might pick the player with less fouls if I realize it. But I am not going to blanantly give a foul to the second guy that made slight contact if the first guy was not smart enough to not foul. I do believe in the philosophy that you should make the 4th and 5th fouls on a star or significant player "be there," but that does not mean the other fouls should not be there as well. I just know that the last couple of fouls are what is going to be remembered. I just use that as a consentration tool more than anything. But I do not agree with purposely distributing the fouls. If a player does not want a foul called, do not foul or cause contact that might make an official call you for something.

Peace
