That ESPN Bad Boys 30 For 30 piece is terrific. Highly recommend it. |

i dont know that much about basketball, i am more into football and bseball. so don't know what a lot of these terms mean like hand chec, means if you breathe on a player today you get called for a foul - where back in the day you could pretty much clothesline somebody ala Hulk Hogan and get away with it. The Bad Boys piece on ESPN was fascinating. As a Sixers fan - the Celts are our most hated rival. You'd watch Laimbeer and Mahorn literally take Bird's and Mchale's heads off and and cheer as a scrum was about to ensue because they got away with it - but then paused and thought to yourself - ummmmmmmmm - that was dirty - is this football with a running back trying to bust through the line as opposed to a PG trying to take it to the hole? Completely different game back then. I do agree though the Warriors would beat the Bulls. More intriguing matchup in my eyes is Lebron vs. MJ. Today's Cavs vs. the Bulls. The Durant factor on the Warriors today just takes them out of the question in my eyes. I don't know who could beat them ...... |

I'm trying to find where they changed the rule that you could take more than 3 steps with the ball without dribbling and the one that says it's now ok to spend more than 3 seconds in the paint.

Here is the step rule in the NBA, it is why it is so loosely officiated. I hate that along with the no 3 second calls. When I was coached I learned not to commit those vilotations step rule. |

When I was coached I learned not to commit those vilotations step rule. i find the 5 second in bound rule and 10 second half court violation rule hysterical to this day too. so many times you just find a ref caught with his shorts down and it's like 'ooops!!!' didn't catch that! i'm also not one for a guy in lane call when a free throw is being shot - another situation where a ref is napping on the job................. |
