Is the kid falling on every 3 attempted taught? I effing hate that and acting like you are shot everytime someone touches you!

Was it college or pros that they tried a rule that if you flop it is a technical? It is/was seldom enforced if it is even still a rule!

I think it is both, but not enforced. I wished they would hammer players that do that bs! It isn't good for the game, but neither is a lot of other things too!

Is the physicality of college basketball just that much higher than what it is in high school basketball? It's just weird how we never see all these plays in high school games like "hook and hold" or hear about "skirmishes" away from the ball that have to constantly be reviewed. 

I think its a combination of increased physicality and mentality. You have a lot more high-level athletes playing against each other where in high school your dominant players are often met with less resistance. On top of that high major basketball is just a different beast when it comes to competitiveness.

This Purdue/Houston game is fugly.

Purdue has 22 points with under 4 minutes left in the first, is shooting only 36% overall and 30% from 3, but the announcer said they're "doing a great job of carving up" Houston's D. lmao

Houston is cold from outside and Loyer is having the half of his life. 

I swear to God if they pull off the upset..

 Loyer has been getting some  open shots since Houston has been running two guys at the $5,000,000 man but I still have to reluctantly give him credit for hitting the shots.
