Los Angeles Lakers at Charlotte Bobcats 3/5

[Slam]

All well and good while ignoring that they should have called the foul on Kobe multiple times before the hand went out.

Not ignoring, I didn't think he was being fouled.

Of course, I didn't think that Felts was fouling D.Will the other week either.

What Felts did was blatant though - obviously, because he was called for the offensive. There was nothing left to question. He threw his arm out - like he tends to do. Like I said though, he has been MUCH better with it this season. I assume it's because he has others to take care of some ball handling getting him away from some of that up close and personal single coverage.

I remember that too. I went back and checked the play by plays and he'd done it something like twice in 6 games when you were implying it was happening all the time. I also remember you being surprised...thinking it was much more than that.

Being called twice in 6 games or what ever the numbers were (can't remember now, although I thought it was more than that with the sample size you referenced at the time) is two times too many IMO. It's one of the worst turn overs a PG can commit.

It's because he only has ok handles so he has to do things like that. If someone applies a lot of pressure on his dribble, he can panic.

He splits doubles very well though so it's weird. He just seems to struggle with one on one coverage sometimes.
