    Why are everyone’s panties getting twisted about grabbing and arm holding by the bigs for boards? Yes those are fouls but they ALL do it ALL THE TIME if you paid attention during games. Refs don’t always spot it or see it. It’s only because NBC is now making it an issue during the WCFs that people are crying about it against OKC. Spurs do it too, and so does everybody else. nothing to see here.

      To me it’s because they call it on a play where it wasn’t even a full arm grab, and a challenge on an out-of-bounds call of all the times it can be called. Meanwhile Wemby’s arm gets pulled down every time he goes for a block or rebound.
