Is Durant really fouling this much?
The past 2 games he has 10 fouls. Is he really fouling this much, or are the refs calling bad calls.

Yes, he needs to stop reaching in on d against lebron which is hard because if he does not lebron will just back him all the way to the hoop he also cant guard d wade because of how quick wade is and his ability to use up fakes to get durant to bite and get contact.

Some of them were clearly fouls, while others were kind of iffy, but you could make the grounds for the call. What it comes down to is when the outcome isn't obvious, people are obviously going to take the side that favors themselves.
For that matter, there was a play when either Durant or Collison fouled LeBron on his way to the basket - this foul could have gone on either player, but it ended up going on Collison instead. I think refs make good calls 80% of the time, 15% of the time it's iffy but at the end of the day its up to the refs, and only around 5% of all calls are wrong.

He has no defense and rebounding and they have him on Wade and Lebron. Even with them trying to call less fouls and letting them play, Durant still fouls a lot and with really dumb fouls. They should put Durant on Battier and let Durant concentrate on the offensive side.
Also Lebron James never fouls or fouls out but against the Celtics he fouled out. It happens.

A lot of Durant's "fouls" would be no calls against most other players. The problem is most of the time he's defending Lebron or Wade and he won't get the benefit of the call against those guys. They practically make a living at the free throw line.

Well...They're what Jeff Van Gundy calls, play-on foul. Technically a foul but you look the other way because it has very minimal impact etc... Today's game though, I didn't see any bad calls on Durant.

did anyone see the play where lebron drove and durant picked up his 4th foul and had to be benched? well that clearly wasnt a foul it goes to show u how fuqed up the refs are in this series.

Some of them are questionable, like the block he was called for in the 4th should have been a no call, but then again he probably of should have just gotten out of the way.

Remember refs can't just pull out the instant replay on every shooting foul that should or shoudn't of happened, and people do go on fouling streaks at times.
