Can we please call fewer fouls on 3-point shooters?
Make no mistake about it, the charge-block call continues to be one of the least appealing aspects of the NBA and how it’s officiated, but there’s another annoyance climbing the pecking order in a hurry. Fouls on 3-point shooters. There … Continue reading
