I love KAT, he is not in Embiid territory, but he is a whiny dude. But he our whiny dude with a ring!

It’s one god awful play but I have a hard time with guys who want over $50m and still kick their leg out after shooting a 3ball for no particular reason while also having 1 foul 3 minutes into a game.

Like, come on man

Except its not one play. It's several. Per game. Just gets away with some of them.

Exactly

I just can't understand the constant arm hooking. Is it such an advantage to be doing it that its worth getting caught 3x per game?

KAT is one of the few guys playing well but he’s not doing himself any favors with his nightly foul trouble. It screws up the whole rotation. Also highlights the importance of having a premium backup minutes eater behind him.

It is what it is the refs will always have a vendetta. He’s still a great player and a big reason why we got a ring and have a chance at a couple more. Hopefully a deal eventually gets done.

The Celtics were hooking their arms into KAT's arms to make it look like KAT was the instigator.

One or more of the calls against KAT were of that nature

Yeah I saw that. Purposefully baiting the refs into fouling out KAT. This is getting to the point of self-parody

KAT was in foul trouble both games. Basically had to sit the whole first half against Philly. At some point it becomes and exercise of looking in the mirror and not blaming everyone else.

what is the origin of this "Vendetta"?
As for the hooking? I don't see him as the victim. I see it him taking the bait and getting caught up in it. He need to rise above it. He did so in the playoffs.

He lead the league in fouls last year. Max player stat he should not be a league leader

That Williams injury was bruutal. Broken leg and that nasty Haywood ankle thing. Gonna take a while to get all the way back. He is young.
KAT gets that this year he has his player option to fall back on for 61mil. Injury is a risk to all but he has that extra year to rehab back to some form. Its not so awful for him to wait until the end of the season.
Cason Wallace has torn Labrum. ITs a 3 month injury give or take. HE'll be back this season. Williams I doubt. The broken Fibia won't be the issue. Paul George was far worse but....the aggregate of both injuries is a different story.

OKC has depth and should be fine. I'd imagine odds dropped. While OK might give a clear path for SAS, Seems Timberwolves are finding some early chemstry with Lamelo and will be intereeting to see what develops.
