I've said for awhile now that I think B10 refs got together and decided how they'd call Edey's play. I see no other explanation for why at least some officials wouldn't call fouls on him. The biggest, most physical guy on the floor gets 1 foul in 34 minutes? C'mon man! If I was CMP I'd be imploring him to be more physical, but I think Matt is just fine with where he's gotten the refs to call Edey's game.I don’t think refs are ever going to call Edny for illegal screens. He fakes refs out because he hangs his arms straight down inside his shoulders but if you look at his feet they’re far outside his shoulders. Then he keeps shuffling around until he knocks the guy off balance that’s guarding Smith. Then it’s all over.
He could foul out of every game just on moving screens, over the backs and displacing defenders while getting position. I do think he's very good at not fouling on D and often doesn't leave his feet, but it's those other areas where he's allowed to do what would be a foul on any other player. Basically they've decided not to "punish" him with foul calls because he's so big and strong. Why they don't call it when he repositions himself into the defender on a screen is beyond me. I've never seen in the rules where it says exceptions should be made for extremely large, strong individuals, but it must be in this revision of the B10 rules.
