[QUOTE="Deleted member 29907, post: 1568641"] He reminds me too much of a CJ Fredrick kind of guy. Whiner, kid who annoys everyone he plays against. Perhaps I am sensitive to this kind of play, but i watched too much of it in AAU and it got really annoying. And when refs buy into this crap is just beyond what they are being paid to do. He was also whining and looking over at his coach all game - so, for me, it goes well beyond the one or two plays - its his entire makeup. Basketball has been trying to get this crap out of the game for good reason - its not fundamental basketball, rather attempting to trick the referee into something that dd not happen. Kinda like the head snap (as if being shot from the grassy knoll) when driving past a player. The refs caught onto that and the charge/flop. Some say, if it works - no problem. I say, lace em up and play hard and win with talent and your head, not by trying to fake the refs out. But then again, maybe its just the headband.... [/QUOTE]
