Series is turning me into a Spurs fan. OKC and the refs has been a story for a while now but yesterday it was blatant. Hartenstein fouling Wemby on every single possession was already mentioned.
How did the refs miss this. By the rules this is unnecessary and excessive contact. Not a play on the ball. Flagrant two.

Not to even mention SGA's flopping. Three years ago the league changed the rules to prevent flopping but they aren't enforcing them.
That said. As long as OKC is getting away with it they would be stupid to change things. And as long as this is a league wide issue the Mavs would be stupid to ignore it. In the current NBA players that know how to get away with BS are an asset.
