    I cannot believe for a second that Giannis only draws fouls on 1 in 9 drives. Wonder where this data comes from.

      sixers fans questioning the data and pointing at other players instead of realizing their dudes a boring foul merchant

        Embiid gets fouls on entry passes lol. Giannis gets them mostly on drives. They both draw a similarly insane amount of fouls. Surely an eastern conference fan is aware of this.

      If Giannis had the same whistle Embiid has. The average NBA game would take 25 minutes longer and he taking 30 FT a game.

        Giannis literally averaged more FTA per game than Embiid last year you absolute mealworm.

      Not surprised with that number, this year refs have not been calling fouls on him like usual, idk what happened but all of a sudden he’s getting hacked every drive with no calls. Maybe because we got Dame they don’t want two players with a bunch of free throws on one team. It’s pretty wild. A few games ago I remember Giannis getting his first FTs in the fourth quarter
