Speaking of flagrant fouls, the flagrant 1 in today's nba is an utter joke. I understand protecting a player but if the defender is clearly making a move on the ball and there is a blocked shot, if on the follow through his hand contacts the upper shoulder area it should not be a flagrant. For a few years now it's been terrible. And again is subject to superstar calls. Lebron makes a play on the ball and his body hits Hayward in the air causing a season ending injury, no foul at all because he was making a play on the ball and is was unfortunate. Yet how many times in a season do the Mavs get a flagrant for contact that is so much less than that? So it kills momentum going to review and they again enforce the rules very differently depending on what the name is on the front and back of the jersey.
