i didn’t say that they had special rules…. just that refs don’t know how to call the game when the guy is that big. His size makes him the most physically dominating player on the court…Our team had to send 2-4 guys at him using everything they had to move him off of his position…..I have been coaching basketball for 20 years and this is the first time that I was made aware of that astrek in the rule book. Guys that are really big are not to have all the rules applied to them. Interesting. They can hook smaller defenders so they can't properly defend them. They can also shove smaller players out of the way when they go after rebounds. Sounds legit.
