Message: [QUOTE="jordoo, post: 1176725, member: 569"] I think you have hit on the key point here. People especially SU fans watch Melo mix it up inside and on drives while probably not get his fare share of the whistles. Harden jumps into defenders regularly, runs into them and chucks, flops and flails and goes to the line all the time. Some of it is simply the size of the player. I watch Durrant and I feel because of his slight build and really long arms he gets tons of calls that stronger guys like Lebron and Melo do not. That said Durrant's not trying to draw fouls 70% of the time he drives like Harden is, he's simply trying to score. The purposefully playing offense to draw fouls especially at the rate that Harden does it is simply distasteful and the fact that he is rewarded for it by the refs certainly gives his efficiency quite a boost.
