I absolutely hate how the NBA is reffed. Basketball is a contact sport and the game would be so much better if they went with the style of FIBA refs where defenders don't have to jump out of the way of attackers without risk of getting called for a foul.

All that said, drawing fouls is a skill that is incredibly effective. Players should be trying to draw fouls.

My solution is clear, if its not an obvious foul, or charge, just let it go, no whistle. Speeds the game up for sure instead of giving a big call to either player when in reality it was probably a 55/45 type of call.

Wow you’re a genius. The refs actually currently call stuff because it doesn’t look like a foul
