man I really like this kid, great heart and passion for the game and to put his body on the line the way he does I can really see him leading the Celtics defence for years to come
Kwiechu Fithu The defender has a right to move backwards, sideways, or stand still. If the ball handler moves them from their legal position, it is a charge. If the defender uses their body illegally to stop the ball handler (by moving into them), it is a block
And if you're in the restricted area while you attempt to draw an offensive foul , it will be called a blocking foul because a Defender can't stay in the way of an offensive player when the defender is in the restricted area
I think it was because Livingston pushed away Smart's defending arm. It's a bit odd, but I think that's a good call - it gives the offensive player an advantage (defensive player loses position).
a charging foul is when a player commits an offensive foul by "charging" into the defender as you see in the video. you must be outside of the restricted area for it to be legal. a pushing foul is when a player commits unnecessary contact by pushing or bumping into a player (for example, pushing a player to get a rebound, giving the player the advantage to grab an easier rebound)
pushes away smart so he can cut into the basket even tho it dosent look like much of a fould he was moved away ffromm his initial position which made i an offensive foul
+matde100 There are different ways to force an offensive foul, setting your feet for a charge is one but there are many more, Smart shows it on this video.
Besides if he flops sometimes or not, in my opinion half of these fouls are called when BOTH of the players are moving, and also Smart puts his body between the way of the other player, so I don't think that these situations should be called...
I mean...these situations are defined in the rules. Smart establishes legal guarding position, at which point he's free to move laterally and obliquely to match the offensive player's movements. Even if both players are moving at the moment of contact, it's still an offensive foul if Smart established LGP and beat the defender to the spot.
And your opinion is based on what, your feelings? The rules are crystal clear. Each of these is a charge (offensive player control foul) and it is not even close. The defender MOVING has nothing to do with the correct call... unless he moves FORWARD into the ball handler.
That's a player who loves to win. Sacrificing his body and giving just as much if not more effort on the defensive end as the offensive side

He is the best at making sure they are offensive fouls and not by cheating. He plays fair basketball.
LMAOOOO
DS9 oh boy u were correct
Yo come back to this, they might win
See how the score changes from 0:05 to 0:11, the Celtics made a great comeback that game.
and I bet it’s thanks to Marcus smart. Washington didn’t score a single point
He is just amazing for a rookie.
It doesnt have to be a planted feet to draw an OF when there is a push off or lowering of shoulder. He flop a bit to sell the call.
shoulda been all defensive first or second team fr
it would be great if you showed all of his offensive foul
3:22 is the best, man it takes guts and ice packs to do what Smart 🍎 does
He's gonna be a Lebron type leader be the time hes 25
What's BS about him taking those charges is that he isn't on All-Defensive teams so far
Lmao idky but i was tripping out on that last one
How do you draw the line between a charge and a blocking foul?

Marcus Smart is SMART
what happened at 3:56
I think it was because Livingston pushed away Smart's defending arm. It's a bit odd, but I think that's a good call - it gives the offensive player an advantage (defensive player loses position).
What is charging foul what is deferent between pushing foul
a charging foul is when a player commits an offensive foul by "charging" into the defender as you see in the video. you must be outside of the restricted area for it to be legal.
a pushing foul is when a player commits unnecessary contact by pushing or bumping into a player (for example, pushing a player to get a rebound, giving the player the advantage to grab an easier rebound)
2:54 can someone explain that?
pushes away smart so he can cut into the basket even tho it dosent look like much of a fould he was moved away ffromm his initial position which made i an offensive foul
Smart is smart to do a force turnover
Good defender not flopping or any of that shit
some of these should be no calls/blocks because his feet aren't even set
+matde100 There are different ways to force an offensive foul, setting your feet for a charge is one but there are many more, Smart shows it on this video.
feet don't need to be set. this rule has been changed for years now.
Half of these are the refs being terrible at their job
Looks like his flopping a bit
King Crossover he has 1 bad flop everyone has seen but most of these are genuine charges and he is very good at getting there to draw the charge
I’d like it more if basketball wasn’t so fucking boring
while some are OF others are just actually flops
Not better than ersan ilyasova
PHILLY
30% of these are flops, on 20% he didn't establish position rest is good...
Jesus Loves you and wants you to accept him as your Lord and saviour
Accepted him a long time ago! Amen !
Not that lady refs are bad but I think 3:55 should have been a no call
i think its becasue he slapped smart's arm away or sumin like that
Besides if he flops sometimes or not, in my opinion half of these fouls are called when BOTH of the players are moving, and also Smart puts his body between the way of the other player, so I don't think that these situations should be called...
