Yao and Dwight Howard don't get away with **** offensively, but they get away with a lot defensively, particularly blocking calls..every elite big man gets hacked more than they get calls, and they all get away with a lot defensively..

It used to be Iverson, now Wade runs away it. They both play the same style that puts pressure on the officials.

gimme a break...maybe the Wizards just suck?? never thought of that huh

glad to see Wade is back on y'all mind though

Wade


James
Kobe

Pierce

Make no mistake, it's also no coincidence these guys are the four elite perimeter players in the NBA.

honestly, Kobe probably gets away with the least out of any superstar in the NBA..he gets away with **** defensively, but he doesn't get nearly as many calls offensively as many think he does..I really have no idea why, but he seems to get treated differently compared to guys like James, Wade and the great Paul Pierce..

Anyone who puts Kobe above Wade/LBJ clearly doesn't watch the Lakers. Kobe does not get a lot of calls on the offensive end. In fact, there are some games where Kobe NEVER get a call. Compared to Wade, who gets a call virtually every time you breathe on him, or LBJ, who travels on almost every drive, Kobe gets treated poorly by the refs.

Very true. Kobe gets hindered by refs just as much as they favor him due to his superstar status.

PRIME example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T6SpBM8dB4k

Kobe was 1st in the league in free throw attempts 2 years ago and 4th last year.

Gotta show some support for my man, DWhistle.

And all that considering he's a jumpshooter and doesn't slash the way a LeBron or Wade does. But you got these delusional homers claiming he's actually being treated unfairly. Instead of dudes simply admitting superstars in general get a lot of calls, its gotta be either Wade or LeBron who take the cake. Coincidentally these are the two stars who have passed him up to be at the top of the league. Jealous ones still envy.

Kobe:
*screams "ARGHH!!" as he tries to shoot it over 2 defenders*
*ref from other side of the court calls foul*

Dude, Kobe gets that kind of treatment almost as much as he gets superstar calls. The refs just swallow their whistles when Kobe gets hacked so many times.

Wade probably does get the most favourable calls, but at the same time aggressive players tend to get the benefit of the doubt, and he DOES attack the basket all the time.

Dwight gets the most non-calls, he is constantly fouling people when fighting for position for boards, and he regularly goaltends, but gets away with both all the time.

KG also gets a huge number of non-calls, refs let him pull dirty stuff like this ALL THE TIME:

How so? In that screen shot you can clearly see Wade's foot being clipped by Brandon Roy I think. I'm not saying it was on purpose but clipping fouls rarely are but they are usually called anyway. But somehow this makes Wade untouchable and a scapegoat to everyone on realgm as a guy that gets the most calls

As i have stated many times. NBA refs suck, they are not held to the same standard as the players, yet they are in the NBA and said to be the Best!

The point is, Refs suck. The problem falls with them, not the players. Wade/Bron/Kobe... attack the rim, so its only right they gets the most calls.
