i realize its a shooting foul, and flagrant 2,or whatever, but the announcers are acting like bynum ran over berae's childs dog in his car or something. i mean it was a soft forearm to buddy's midsection.
and of all people to walk him off the court, ron artest does. hilarious :P
(and he should have been called for a push off foul at half court, against i can't really tell but six or eight on la..)
Eh he's not gonna hurt anybody doing that. It's a dumb foul for sure, and dirty, but people are overreacting. That fluff happens in pick up games all the time
a "soft elbow" from a 7 footer 280 pound guy will knock your air out. but that wasn't just a soft elbow. the retard has broken ribs before: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QbcjL7AVxMA

there is no argument that he should keep his elbows to himself, but if he let the players freely and happily get to the basket people would instead be calling him a fluffty defender who can't control the paint.
Don't be 'tarded, there are plenty of good defenders who don't commit dangerous flagrant fouls on a regular basis.

i didn't say there weren't.
those defenders are still physical (we're talking paint, not twenty foot jump shots?), they just keep their elbows to themselves.
Can the NBA please start calling fouls for flopping and faking injuries to try and get a foul called?
I'm a Bulls fan (and I'll admit that I've seen Chicago to it as well), the Heat drove me nuts with all the acting to get fouls. This isn't soccer (how can I guy act like his leg is broken, then realize he isn't gonna get the call and run off like nothing happened??).

and still frequently pick up flagrant fouls
The likes of Tim Duncan don't.
