[QUOTE="Phatillusion, post: 610407, member: 541271"] For the one guy complaining about it being a hard foul. What do you think they are supposed to give a love tap or something? When the guy comes to the hole, you give him a hard foul, you don't want him to get the hoop and one, plus you want to make him think next time he or anyone else brings it in to the hoop, that they are gonna pay. There is a huge difference between a hard foul and a flagrant. A flagrant is one that in which you intended to do harm to a player, a hard foul is more or less to prevent the basket and to get in the players head. Even when I play street ball, if some one has a clear shot to the hoop, I foul them hard, whether it be pushing them or grabbing their arms. So with that being said, Artest committed a hard foul, not a flagrant. It was an acceptable foul, what Wallace did was unacceptable. Maybe he was mad he didn't have an album coming out, or maybe his album was dropping on the same day Artest was. Whatever the case may be, Wallace was the one who screwed up. I don't like artest, but he had some balls to back away. [/QUOTE]
