Mentioned in this video
Chip Clark breaks down something I think a lot of fans are missing in the Hartenstein arm grab debate.
It's not that the refs are ignoring it. It's that "possession consequence" is a real officiating framework. If Hartenstein grabs Wemby's arm and it has zero impact on the play, that's a different call than if it actually disadvantages him.
Chip walks through two specific plays where Wemby is being held and still completes the action cleanly. No possession consequence. Play on.
Does that mean OKC should keep doing it until they get whistled? Probably. But that's a different conversation than "the refs are letting them get away with murder." #shorts
