Kobe is averaging 6.2 FTs this year. I don't think Kobe gets a lot of calls. I think he just gets a lot of calls against the Rockets.

yeah Kobe doesn't get to the FT line a lot this year but that is because he doesn't drive as much as he used to, he is more of a pull-up jumper player nowadays but when he does drive he gets the calls.

Billups

The guy will take one dribble, flail his arms and body in every direction, and the refs give him the call every single time. It's especially baffling because he's not a great driver and he's not a superstar. But any time he finds his way into the paint, you can bet a foul will be called.

Jamison flails a lot I noticed... so does Hedo, lol... he just throws the ball away and throws up both of his hands and a lot of times he doesnt even get called for it and gets a turnover

I think if you put McGee back then, he would get those blocks just as easily as Russell did. Russell's athleticism was well ahead of the players of his time, and that's about it.

he's a well known hater on our board, so please understand.

on today's game thread, he posted "Jose Calderon is garbage" at least 10 times.

and that's all he wrote.

anyway, here are the FTA average leaders:

Dwight Howard
Devin Harris
Dwyane Wade
Chris Bosh
LeBron James
Amare Stoudemire


One of these names is not like the other. That would be your early favorite for this competition.


Well the way Harris plays he really puts pressure on the refs to make a call. He always connects contact body first, before a shot. Most of the calls are fair IMO.

"Fall down 7 times, hear the whistle 8 times."

I'll let you guys guess who this is about.

Also, I gotta be honest Duncan gets away with stuff too.

Wade still reigns supreme, although I haven't seen as much lately.

Kobe, nuff said

Bosh, aka 6-11 Wade

Gasol is ridiculous, whenever he experiences any contact whatsoever, he'll yell at the top of his lungs

AI used to be at the top, but he's slowed down lately. Howard gets a bunch, though a lot of them are justified.

1. Wade
1a. Lebron (although with Lebron he gets a lot of "no calls" in his favor (4-5 extra steps, blatant push offs, etc.))
