I think alot of it is ref's getting to know him.... they just can't believe he gets where he does so fast and doesnt' foul.

I can't compare him to another young player with his lack of exp on the court, and athletic abiltiy...

look at his third foul yesterday.... he should have gone for the block and let the guy shot 2 shots since they called the foul anyways, he tried to be smart playing with 2 fouls and let the guy have the free path to the basket....

As great as ben was.... we all know that he got away with alot on his rep, there was no way he could play defense as great as he did for 40 mins and come away from the game with 2 fouls.
