    Wait, this guy is employed by the team who's current best player, Scola, is one of the league's worst offenders at flopping?

    I don't think calling more fouls is "letting it go".

    Both calls looked correct to me--I don't think that it's legal to inhibit movement with your body like that away from the ball, although I'm no expert on NBA rules. And Bayless clearly jumped into the defender on his jumpshot.

    Yep... both looked fine to me. Bayless did jump on the floor but he was impeded.

    I'm glad Bullard was able to recognize someone acting; watching Scola is like watching a master class taught by DeNiro.

    It is illegal to screen a player out of bounds.
