lowers his shoulders and it's an offensive foul on almost every play. when are they gonna call that?

reminds me of LeRoid.

no skill, just bully ball.

Celtics need to start hitting the floor when it happens or the refs are not gonna call it.

and when he picks the ball up with 2 hands on a drive, he flails his elbows and pretty much goes to the defenders head with it. the defender instinctively has to move their chin or get caught with it.

BEFORE YOU LOOK AT ONLY ONE PLAYER LOOK AT THE DEFENSE ..... PLAYERS ARE TYPICALLY MOVING WHEN CONTACT OCCURS , AND IF GIANNIS RECIEVES THAT CONTACT WHILE HE IS OPTAINING CONTACT IT IS A DEFENSIVE FOUL.

jUST REMEMBER THAT GIANNIS CAN TAKE A DOWN HILL STEP AND LITERALLY COVER 8' . WHEN THIS HAPPENS IT IS ALL MOST IMPOSSIBLE FOR A DEFENDER TO PUT HIM SELF IN POSITION TO GET A CHARGE... A LOT OF GUESS WORK WHAT WAY GIANNIS WILL GO ONE WAY OR ANOTHER.

The fact that you typed this in all caps shows it hit a nerve and you know its true. The Celtics got in front plenty yesterday and took a bunch of charges that weren't called. Its a fraudulent style of basketball.

Shaq 2.0

The NBA lets superstars get away with their trademark moves. Been doing that since at least the 80s.

Most players trademark moves don't involve that though.

He leads the league in offensive fouls by a wide margin so it's not like he doesn't get them called against him

you want to give him single coverage, then you have to live with the result of it.
