    ^^^When I first saw the play I thought it was a charge but after replay I don't think it was.

    For me there was no advantage when he was already starting his way up to dunk before any kind of contact. Play on .

    He actually did not push off with his shoulder, either. His hand was moving the other way to avoid contact with his shoulder and a split second later he used that hand to protect his nuts from hitting that same shoulder! lol Plus, in this still, you can even see Beasley avoiding contact already, instead of drawing the charge. Had he been standing straight up at this point, Ja would have no choice but to move straight into him and knock him over. Instead, he's moving backwards during the whole play. 





     I don't think it's hyperbole to say that was one of the greatest dunks in the history of the sport. It's an all timer.

    Yeah tempo, you're kind of on an island on this one.
    Like Juggs said, Beasley is shying away from the contact, you're not likely to get a charge call that way.
    Watch how Marcus Smart takes a charge against Giannis Sunday (good chance it happens), he'll stand straight there and absorb the full brunt of the contact. That's how you get the refs to call an offensive foul.
    There hasn't been any hue and cry for a foul on Ja, don't even think Beasley complained about no call.
    That's just not a charge in the NBA.
    This weekend we rock Portland

    JA USED HIS HAND TO PUSH OFF, not Beasly.

    If you stop and go frame by frame it can be anything...

    Seeing that pic though there is contact.

    Watching it in real time it looks to me that contact then Beasly moves but ehh, whatever.

    Still a bad ass dunk.

    Obviously you cannot see the hand when it's behind Beasley's head. But seeing as how the hand is already facing himself and not still towards Beasley here, that leads me to believe his hand was just moving past him to protect his nuts. If he was pushing off Beasley's shoulder, I'd think you'd see that....but you don't. It looks like he is trying to avoid Beasley. 

    I don't see any contact worthy of a foul, especially considering Beasley's moving backwards to avoid contact during the whole video. Had he stood straight up, a charge likely would've been called and the dunk attempt would've likely failed.

    Wild that 3 days later y'all are still debating if a foul should have been called. WHO THE HELL CARES. 
    It was one of the best in game dunks in a long, long time. There's not enough contact either way to call block/charge. 

    Just enjoy the moment and move on! #GrizzIn6

    Plus his hand is clearly NOT on his shoulder in this picture. It's in the process of moving in front of his face, as you can see in the still I posted, on his way to covering his nuts.

    Anybody watching this game?  Memphis is young and quick, man they look good.  This team will be something to watch these next few years.  I’m not counting out the Warriors just yet though.  Third quarters for them are usually big.

    Yeah that was a really good game. I don't think Draymond should've been tossed.

    Everyone but the refs thought it was a bullshit call.  That could have been the game for them too but the Warriors fought back.

    I was surprised they upgraded it to a flagrant 2. I guess they considered his arm coming down a "hit to the face" and then the jersey pull to the ground as two separate actions.

    This is going to be a fun series. #GrizzIn7

    He went for the ball and hit him in the face.  The jersey pull was not a flagrant...

    It wasn't a good choice I'll say that but it wasn't a flagrant 1.

    It should have been a Flagrant 1.
    they gave him a Flagrant 2.

    Should have been 2 shots and the ball but no ejection (Flagrant 1)

    Of course Green doesn't help his cause with how he acts after getting ejected. One replay shows Andre Iguodala behind him while he was gesturing to the crowd saying "don't do that"

    I thought they hit him w the Flagrant2 because of the head hit?

    They gave him the flagrant 2 because of the combo of both acts if I understood the explanation.
    My point is that I think the entirety of it deserved a Flagrant 1, not a Flagrant 2.
