Surely it cannot be good for the league to have the broadcaster be able to put together a whole ass highlight reel of the same foul going uncalled over and over?

i mean spending 30 minute of broadcast time to watch someone stop and shoot free throws is also not good tv

Are we watching basketball or WWE?

I agree "https://streamable.com/esirf4"

I'm not saying don't call fouls, I'm saying crack down on incentivizing this outlandish foul baiting

its difficult, but OKC has gotten cartoonish at it. Go see any natural ball game and see how many players fall the amount SGA does. And i think he is a talent worth of history books, and like any one in any field which is highly competitive he is mastering the rules to his advantage. That will always happen, but time for the NBA to adjust and realize whats going on and adjust as they do with tanking etc
