the nba elevates certain people’s perceived skills through precise officiating to create story lines. Then strips them of that when the story line is no longer needed. Then puts the word out to the media to play the game about so and so losing a step. Those guys know they haven’t lost that much of a step and become frustrated. Which is then seen as a mental block..

Stay woke fam..this been going on, I’m not fooled

I would ride with this theory if I saw Steph getting outlandish calls, but nah

and we all know he and the warriors were "the chosen" the last two years

Steph was/is the damn face of the NBA and he didnt get away with shit

Curry dont get ref love at all bro....not like Harden, Paul, Russ, etc.....there is no shutting them down, the court is theirs

He was their money maker and they clearly pushed his MVP campaign all year, and nothing.......so when "his time is up" there is nothing to take away

You’re not giving them enough. Lemme ask you a question, do you think it would be easy for you to officiate a bball 5 on 5 game with 8 year olds. To where you could sway momentum and exaggerate how good an individual player is. Without it being too overly obvious?

When he loses some of his quickness, they will allow guys to hip check him more. They will call more moving screens on his teammates.

Steph curry is Tony Parker with a deadlier 3. When his time is up, they will “let” younger and quicker guys get physical with him on D and it will be seen as good d because to the eye and mental the younger guy should be able to say with him

So it don’t seem out of place, when really, their letting hand checking, grabbing, hip checking

Man when the Cavs played the Celts..Paul Pierce held onto Lebron’s arm and jersey around every screen.

Perk was brushing niggaz, Rondo was made to look like a Gawd for Christ sakes man. RONDO!!

man listen..

Idk maybe

But the ones that suck will suck and the ones that are good will fluorish regardless

Shifting momentum is one thing but being the reason a player becomes trash would have to be so overt its undeniable

Nah, if you got a kid that’s quick off the dribble. Officiate to where a kid can’t play on em. Every little contact is a foul. Eventually the kids gotta give him space. And that quickness is allowed to flourish, till he looks like the next Iverson out there. Then when he drives, 1up him like Mario every other time.


He’ll drop 30..easy

Shit might even boast his confidence enough to drop bombs and make it 45

In a way , most times you know how it’s gone shake out by the little things. How aggressive they let guys get. How much they call off the ball contact. That’s usually a real good indicator of what they are setting up for. But once I get a general theme of how they want it to play out..it’s more of a..validation...of what I thought than any general enjoyment

Kinda like how you know a chick is a certain way and u probably shouldn’t fuck wit her, but u do with no intentions of really catching feelings..then when she do what u knew she would do..u ain’t mad cause she was what u thought she was
