Knicks · The Refs vs Karl Anthony Towns (page 2)

Jalen is 2nd in the league at drawing fouls (Giannis is 1st) He basically puts his arms out (josh too) after any contact looking for the whistle.
For the most part, they are correct. They often do it as the whistle blows which is funny. Predisposed to protest! LOL
Brunson does create a lot of the contact that happens with him.
I don't watch enough other teams to know if this is common with other players.

Embiid is usually there drawing fouls in quantity and no doubt why he is freaking out this year as refs are calling contract less.

He leads the league in personal fouls. I got a piece of read string for you but tell us how the league benefits from screwing over Towns and the knicks? You have to come up with something remotely plausible! What reason does Silver have? How does it add revenue?

Towns is 12th in FT attempt per game this season. Brunson is 5th. They get to the line.

But maybe if they were called like SGA and whatnot they’d be 5th and 1st?

SGA is a better player than Brunson.
He also plays on a better team. I think Brunson is 2nd behind Giannis at drawing fouls. Thats Getting your man an offensive fouls and a non shooting foul. that tells me Brunson is up there. Question is should there be more?

Can we quantify this some how?
