Since you bring up Beef Stew ;), I want to bring up the physicality Victor has been facing. I'm all for tough play/physical play, but is Victor not being fouled quite a bit off the ball?

How come you can't be that physical with guards and it's a foul if you do, but with Victor, you can push him around, pull him, hit him and it not be a foul? The NBA was calling soft fouls for years and now they're just letting this kind of physical play go with hardly any fouls called. How are they able to pick and choose like that?
Actually, it is a gamble for teams...because wemby mentioned once - that sometimes when he falls it is "to teach the consequences of the physical play" and sometimes he just loses his balance but he agreed that he has been falling a bit too much...

also...

when wemby gets repeatedly hacked - he gets amped up and starts refusing offers to help him off the floor by opponents or pushes their hands away and once they get on his nerves - he starts doing superman things on the court...

so opponents can rough him up at their own peril IMO...
 
Cade would want to take that game back. Let’s gooo! Spurs by 8pts :st-flag: :st-flag: :st-flag:
