1 million foul calls tonight at Kings Vs. Warriors. Refs are ruining good play and game flow. (alien.top)

Has basketball become so soft that players can’t even bump into each other? Or how is it that when the offensive player purposefully bumps into someone it’s so easily a foul on the defender. Really seemed like the refs stole the show again tonight. Let them play ffs, no one wants to see constant stoppage of play, that is the most boring version of basketball.

So here's what really happened.

Warriors and Kings are both top 11 in Free throws attempted per game for the season, and Warriors also give up 3rd most free throws per game this season, while the Kings give up 9th most free throws.

What this was, was essentially two teams playing each other who can't stop fouling others, and can't stop getting fouled. If the Bucks and Sixers played each other and people complained about too many free throws then that'd be stupid lol. Those teams live at the line.

Still today had too many free throws, but when you put teams in bonus minutes into a quarter then obviously you're gonna give up more free throws too.
