Man up. The NBA is a grown man league.

He suffered the injury going over the back for a rebound. That ain’t the refs fault.

There are nowhere near the number of hard fouls in today's game compared to 15-20 years ago.

And he is 2nd in the league in free throws attempted behind the Greek Freak.

Somewhere folks like Maurice Lucas, Anthony Mason and Rick Mahorn are ROTFL.

This makes me laugh. The same player whos go to move is to put his head down and bowls over defenders...and gets away with it?

I agree..he is officiated unfairly...except it's in his favor.

Add Charles Oakley, Dale Davis, Shaq and Karl Malone to that list.

Did they think they were drafting the Duke whistle also?

This ^ x 1,000,000. He flat runs over defenders time and again and the refs swallow their whistle or call it on the defender. If I was officiating, he'd get at least 2 offensive fouls a game.
