He knows he's not going to play 40 minutes and so he's okay with taking the foul to prevent two surefire points.
Yep, he makes a bad foul once in a while, but most of the time he's stopping a guaranteed 2 points. And he usually makes sure his fouls don't result in and 1's.
I would be interested in seeing some sort of numbers on that. Like, how many shooting fouls does Tyler commit where the basket is actually made? If that was the kind of stat that was tracked, I'd wager Tyler is about the most efficient player in history at it.
