AROUND the NBA: Pat Bev Suspended 4 Games Next Season| PHX Fires Vogel, Hires Bud

Luka is one of the most physical players in the league. He’ll benefit from allowing more contact. It will level the field since he doesn’t get those calls anyway.

Good point. Silver seems to have consensus in moving the rules this direction. It’s often unwatchable in the league with how slanted the rules are for the offense. Something must be done. This will take Luka to an even higher level. He doesn’t get the calls now as it is, compared to his peers. The ppg data with free throws taken out is very telling. SGA and Ja type players i would think would suffer. Also more injury prone players like Embiid and older players dealing with a more physical game would be a recipe for trouble
