    I'm starting to see what people are talking about..... Dame tries to avoid the contact when he drives, which only results in a miss and no call.

    Lillard should really shoot through the contact instead of shooting those little scoop shots.

    Yeah. That play was kind of the poster of what he's been trying to do. He needs to be less Rose and more Lillard. lol.

    I remember when they said the same thing about Derrick Rose in his first couple years. It seems he has learned to stop avoiding contact and thus gotten more foul calls.

    I was thinking more Harden, the master of creating little contact.

    I had a VPN for most of the last year, but it ended in mid-October and I didn't want to renew for just another 3 weeks. I'll suck it up today and tomorrow. Then it's LeaguePass time on my new 60" Panasonic ZT60 present to myself.

    That wasnt a foul.

    Freeland and Lopez each with 2 fouls. This is gonna suck.

    Dame would have to throw his head back every time he makes contact with his defender, as if he was shot. That's the Harden way.

    The difference between that is Harden gets the call.

    I think Nash is more what Dame should be going for...he didn't get tons of foul calls, but had about 3 in-the-lane shots (floater, stop-then-fadeaway, hesistation J) that worked for him.
