Shaq is called for offensive fouls quite often. On Christmas Day, if fouled out while playing less than a full quarter. If the defender holds his ground, Shaq is routinely called for offensive fouls. In the Magic's second playoff series last year, Dwight Howard stayed in so much foul trouble, he was irrelevant in the series. He incurs numerous technical fouls for complaining about these fouls. Greg Oden can't stay healthy long enough to commit an offensive foul. He's the 21st century's version of Sam Bowie. Quote:
BTW, using words like alsways and never is a very bad idea.

Here is a link to NBA Post Up's on YouTube. Sorry about the music, just mute it.
YouTube - Post Moves Starting at 1:03 with Carmelo who uses his Butt to create space you will see there was no call. This is the stuff I'm talking about. Also Boozer at 1:40 is the prime example of what I am referring too. That is the move Shaq and other big men have done their whole careers. |

CFGUY06: If you are looking for answers as to who the rules are administered in the NBA you are asking the wrong group. While some of us stay on top of the NBA Rules, that does not mean we understand how they are applied on the court. NFHS, NCAA, and FIBA (sometimes) are our primary areas of expertise. MTD, Sr. P.S. How is the weather is Central Florida today?

1. What is the rule? 2. How do NBA officials enforce the rule? You have been given the answer to #1. Nobody knows the answer to #2, so don't expect much of an answer there.

As we've already told you: #1 - the defender doesn't hold his ground and gives way, he's not going to get the call in the NBA. #2 - The NBA is entertainment, not basketball. They call it they want the league wants it called. #3 - That does NOT mean offensive fouls are never called. You lose credibility when you post things like that.

All Purpose,
Thank you very much for that link. I think it has helped me greatly. Also, I enjoyed the clips on showing a flop and to what Howard was doing backing up. Thanks again for the link. Also, weather in Central Florida is starting to get cold. Suppose to be 33 tonight

We do have one semi-regular contributor who works in the D-League, maybe he will chime in on your question as it pertains to the NBA. But don't expect to answer why a particular official did or didn't make a particular call in a game you saw on TV. We cannot answer for that official.

The NBA? Don't watch it anymore and what you're moaning about is one of the reasons that I don't. That's just me though. It's certainly not representative of the thinking of any other or all amateur officials. Everybody has their own view. The NBA is entertainment based. Colleges, high schools and international teams play basketball. |
