We all have at one time or another been frustrated by a player committing a silly foul at the end of the game and finding himself on the bench fouled out. When I was a kid, it was Shawn Kemp fouling out of a game many times for the Sonics that was
NBA Jerseys Wholesale frustrating to watch. I wanted to see him in the final minutes posting up for a chance to throw down a nasty dunk to close the game.Instead, I would have to settle for a Detlef Schrempf jumper for my finish. Don't get me wrong, I liked watching Detlef's game, but Kemp was just electric in the finish. It just reminded me that I wanted to see my favorite players play out the full 48 minutes of basketball every night of every game.
That is where the argument for fouling out of games begins: Should the NBA eliminate players from fouling out of games?There are two parts to this question that I feel come to the front of interest. The first part is the focus on the players and putting more value into them by not allowing them to foul out. The second part of focus would be on the value of coaches. Simplifying this question down to whether the coaches or players are more valuable in this given situation.
I'll start with the focus on why we should not have players foul out. I start with a focus on the NFL. If a player in the NFL, say Charles Woodson, was to commit six personal fouls, he wouldn't be thrown out of the game. His six fouls would help the other team, but he would still be allowed to stay in the game. That's assuming that you'd still want a player in who has caused six personal fouls.
Woodson would still have a chance to win the game if it came down to a last second play with a pick or a tipped pass. His value in the end is on the plays he makes to the very end, instead of the plays he does not because he'd be on the bench from fouling out. This also allows the players to play at an all out effort without worry that he will not be able to continue with full effort unlike Randy Moss.Now getting back to basketball, when a fan comes out to a game and puts down a hefty amount of money to go to a game today, they want to see their favorite player in a meaningful situation. Whether you like Kobe Bryant or not, you want to see him on the floor with the game on the line. Half of the people want to see Kobe give them exhilaration from a winning basket, while the others want to see him horribly fail and get jubilation from his failure.Either way, the fans to want to feel like they got their money's worth just like if they go to a movie or buying a car. It is rare when Bryant fouls out or when other big names such as Dwyane Wade, Kevin Durant or LeBron James foul out. So to an extent with stars, the argument for keeping players in regardless of fouls would go on deaf ears. The stars don't foul out, so people won't care. That is except with the case of Dwight Howard.
