When they "block", it's called a screen or a pick. It's legal as long as you don't move and are simply standing your ground. You have to be set when you get ran into. Much of basketball offense revolves around setting screens. But if you are still moving when a guy runs into you, it's an offensive foul and a turnover.

Players don't get involved much anymore because of Malice at the Palace. You have to understand that one incident really changed the NBA. If you leave the bench when a fight breaks out in the NBA you can be suspended a game and will definitely be fined. The NBA made the fines and suspensions too not worth it for the players after that incident. It's akin to what 9/11 did permanently to airports in the USA on a much less serious scale obviously.

I haven't watched for a few years but don't the top players with the most money still flop like there's no tomorrow because the fines are a joke to them? I have an easy fix to all the unsportsmanlike conduct. Get rid of all the fines and start giving them permanent fouls you start with each game for the rest of your life. Give them one freebie as a warning, that's it. They'll either shape up real quick or see their playing time drastically reduced.

The Enforcer: The NBA had enforcers in the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s. Maurice Lucas, Bill Laimbeer, Bob Lanier, Dennis Rodman, Dave Cowens, Darryl Dawkins, Charles Oakley Rick Mahorn to name few. The NBA didn't like it so so they made a point to take it out of the game

I remember there was a video game when I was a kid called "Bill Laimbeer's Combat Basketball" because of how ridiculous he was.

"In this July 29, 2008 former NBA referee Tim Donaghy exits Brooklyn federal court following his sentencing after pleading guilty to federal charges that he took payoffs from a professional gambler for inside tips on games."-wiki

There used to be an idea that, during the playoffs, you never give up easy baskets or layups. In those cases, it could be 'acceptable' to give 'hard fouls'. This got to a point where the fouls got Too hard, so it's more unusual to see.

Ron Artest became a Lakers legend when Harden tried to check him during his celebration.

The one I think is missing is when Kurt Rambis was clotheslined while running down the court. He was slammed to the floor and it was one of the things that helped make Kurt famous.

Ron Artest is the main guy from Malice at the Police who ran into the stands.

12:18 For the most part there are three levels of violations in basketball Personal Fouls: These are the most common, they can occur in various different ways but mostly do to improper physical activity in certain spots. Players get 6 personal fouls before they are ejected from the game. Technical Foul: Techs are somewhat in the middle, they are less severe than flagrant but more critical than personal fouls. It’s typically called for unsportsmanlike conduct. Over the course of a regular season if a player has more than 16 techs then they are suspension for a game. Flagrant 1: Flagrants are the most egregious penalties out of the 3. They can be classified by Flagrant 1 and Flagrant 2. For F1, the foul is typically stronger, more forceful contact on an opponent. Flagrant 2: Andrew Schultz (😂 jk), but F2 are the most severe penalties, these are the equivalent to red cards in futbol. And it’s also a suspension from the next game as well. All of these fouls will provide the opposing team the ball and some will allow for the opposing team to get free throw shots.

11:20 Yes there most certainly has been a problem with refs gambling and potential mafia links. One ref, Tim Donaghy ended up going to prison for one year in 2008-09, but he was just the fall guy, other refs were involved but the authorities didn't have enough proof that could be used in court. Netflix has started working on a documentary on the whole investigation in collaboration with Donaghy. --- With all that being said, the referees are now watched much more closely.

Yes, thats a good comparison Yellow Card = Flagrant 1 (multiple in one game gets you kicked from the game), Red Card = Flagrant 2 up are kicked from the game. The difference would in soccer you cannot replace the player on the field, while in Basketball no one loses a position on the court (pitch), however the team in which incurred the flagrant would have free throws and given position of the ball.

That must've been one heel of a slap... The guy had heck his pulse to see if he's not the walking dead, cause you know NBA and their prejudice against.... Zombies 😂😂😂

He's the kind of person that keeps all that stuff alive in the zeitgeist. Without the people like him constantly popping a boner to bring it up none of that stuff actually exists in real life.

No need for NBA players to take tactical fouls to miss games. These days if a player doesn't want to play he just flat out says I don't want to, and the teams go ok, that's fine. It's ridiculous.

Running into a screener (the one “blocking”) isn’t a foul. If you’re on defense, it’s on you to be aware of your surroundings and your teammates to warn you of income screens so that you can avoid the collision. Screen-setters are supposed to stand straight up without moving (although these days they move a lot and refs just don’t call it a foul) and it’s usually only a foul if they make some kind of forceful movement towards you.

If a defender tries to run through a stationary player, it’s absolutely a defensive foul. If a defender gets knocked on their ass because they weren’t paying attention AND their teammates didn’t alert them to an incoming screen, too often the refs will call an offensive foul on the legally set screening player (which is a terrible call). If the screening players moves too soon, they get called for a moving screen, which is an offensive foul and results in a turnover. I see them called all the time…

Watch Klay Thompson 37 points in a quarter and KD at Rucker park. Two of the most re-watchable basketball clips!

Players missing games for a suspension is kinda rare and they play 82 games a season so it's nothing like soccer. Nobody intentionally tries to miss games.

I dont care what anyone says. Harden deserved that elbow.

These were nothing compared to the time Kermit Washington punched Rudy Tomjanovich in the face so hard that his facial bones detached from his skull, and blood and spinal fluid leaked into his mouth. The doctor who worked on him said the surgery was like taping together a broken egg.

Arrest was the dirtiest player in the NBA while he played 🙄 As for Flagrant 1/Flagrant 2. They are fouls deemed to be unnecessary and dangerous. Not making an attempt to take the ball while shoving, hitting a player around the head/neck area, particularly from behind a player who is in the air, when they are deemed to be ‘defenseless’. This kind of stuff will often be a flagrant 2 which is automatic ejection from the game. A flagrant 1 can result in an ejection, at the discretion of the referee, or if it was the second flagrant 1 during the same game, that’s also an automatic ejection. Multiple technical fouls in the same game also results in ejection. There are several criteria that can result in players/coaches being removed from the court.

Anything NBA related you lot react to, I get so excited to watch haha not sure why

Bruce Bowen aka the Conquistador used to called the "Kobe stopper"

15:52 they do get free throws and possession after for flagrant fouls

I grew up watching old school ball, so I don't have a problem with many of these. if someone drives the lane, take their head off and make them shoot two. Ahhh. The good old days.

Flagrant 1 = yellow card Flagrant 2= red. Same rules 2 yellows= a red

Hockey "goons" did exist, but now you need mad skills to suit up. If you can enforce at the same time, great.

It's called screening, screens are legal as long as the player isn't moving. Moving screens are illegal

That was a clean screen by Nene

A lot of these players were Fined several thousands of dollars for their behavior on the court.. so it’s not just being ejected, or suspended they are facing!!!

Pushing people in the air is incredibly frowned upon by the players on top of being a foul. It's one of the most dangerous things you can do to someone in the game.

They should check out Bill Laimbeer. He was a real psycho when he played for the Pistons.

The gambling scandal with the NBA was a referee was caught betting on games

No player in the NBA tries to miss games. Mostly because they aren't a bunch of drama queens like in soccer.

Great Stuff Guys. You Got To Check Out The Highlights Of The Greek Freak Of The Milwaukee Bucks!!

There is a referee that got fired and arrested for taking bribes but that was like 10/15 years ago. I’m sure it still happens occasionally though.

Great video!

On the NBA the don't have to throw it and get ejected to sit out. It's one of the biggest problems in the league Load Management where stars just sit out about 20 games of the regular season to be rested for the playoffs. Games that have someone like Lebron playing the tickets are even more expensive. So just imagine you save up to take your kid to the one game that the Lakers come to your city spending hundreds of dollars. Just to find out Lebron James and Anthony Davis aren't going to play not because they are hurt but because they want a night off to rest.

Don't ever buy tickets to go see a star player if their team is playing a back-to-back. Good chance they will miss one of those games. The NBA brought this on themselves by making it so 2/3rds of the league makes the playoffs (or play-in). There is a simple fix to eliminate Load Management. Change it so only the top 6 teams make the playoffs. Neither the NBA nor the players would want that, though. Playoff games mean more money in the pockets of all of them. It's why MLB and the NFL have both added teams to their playoff formats.

Love your NBA videos! Please react to "Hi Ren" by Ren. Video is beyond music. Thanks.

Some of these files might be on purpose but a lot of them are just mistakes and these guys are moving so fast and sometimes stuff happened

picks or screens arent a foul as long as you arent moving your feet

I used to know ppl who played with ron arrest when he was a freshman in college and they would say he’s crazy, theirs just something wrong with that boy. He’s a indecent human being.A broken person.

I miss the old nba.

there was a ref get caught a few years ago for fixing games for the mafia lmao… the NBA has basically lost all credibility since then.

Y’all still haven’t got to that LeBron mix tape thooo

it says more about the hurt teammate when teammates don't jump on than it says about the team. Some guys don't deserve to be fought for.

You have to realize these are just clips lol they only show the foul they never show what leads up to the foul so no players don’t foul just so they can miss a game intentionally or whatever lol it’s more retaliation or just trying to stop the guy from scoring a easy bucket.
