Well, he's right. He's only like 17th I think in fouls drawn per game, and he attacks the rim like a madman every night. Lebron gets breathed on and he gets to the line.

There's no collection of floppier superstars than the Miami Heat have. On most teams, its the roleplayers and bench scrubs who flop. On the Miami Heat, Lebron, Wade and Bosh are all notorious floppers. Wade constantly kicks his feet out and falls down after every jumper. I don't think he knows that you're supposed to land on your feet after a J.

There's a difference, though. LeBron is the leagues love child with Wade. They both get insane no-contact calls. Im SHOCKED Hill didn't get a T for running into Baby Bron last night.

You are such a homer!! Everyone else in the world saw Rose's rant as him being a big baby.

Everyone else? You're the only one I've seen call him a baby.

quit trying to troll me man, seriously Everybody knows Rose is a humble, softspoken kid. If he's bitching at the refs then its justified, because he HATES having to say anything

Lebron (8.4) has 2 free throw attempts per game advantage over Rose (6.3) right now. That is about 1 extra foul per game. Meanwhile, Lebron is averaging 27 points per game to Rose's 22. Hardly enough of a disparity to go on a rant about how he's the only Superstar that isn't getting the fouls. Justified in the mind of a fan. But not to the NBA who fined him $25,000.

Because Rose is way too stoned to be mad at anyone

Derrick Rose is currently 15th in the league at FTA/G, behind Corey Maggette and Rodney Stuckey. Yeah I definitely think the refs swallow their whistles too often when he drives in for a layup and contested by like 4 defenders. He's so quick and acrobatic that they never see the contact. But that doesn't make it right.

NBA.COM has him at #11 at this moment. But regardless, maybe if he plays more games (only played 34 out of 48) and stops malingering on the bench with boo boos, it will even out.

(edited his position, he's #11, not #13 on free throw attempts per game)

The games a player doesn't play in, don't count towards stats. The fact that Kevin Durant (a jump shooter) and scrubs like Maggette and Stuckey get more calls than him is ridiculous.

The only reason he's injured now is because the refs in that Knicks game weren't giving him any calls, so he had to go profanity crazy in the second half and attack the rim through more contact than usual to force the refs to blow their damn whistles.

Oh come on. You know for a fact that per game stats tend to even out to reality with more games played. Things can and do run in streaks. Rose is exactly in the same spot for getting the fouls as Dwyane Wade, who has a similar play style, except that Wade didn't hold a press conference where he humbly declared himself a superstar as he complained about not getting the calls.
