Wow Did Dallas Get Robbed

[gtc08]

even if the league says yea we were wrong.

if the player just plays the play out instead of talking this would have been a non story.

or if dallas actually made freethrows down the stretch itd be a non story.

i dont blame the refs for this loss. dallas deserved to lose this game the way they played down the stretch.

One thing to mention sometimes in these situations the players will come out of a huddle and either the player or coach will tell the ref we are going to foul as we have one to give. Like football players telling officials they are going to take a time-out in a certain situation. I wonder if anything was said to anyone before the play started.

if dallas wouldve made thier free throws down the stretch none of that would have even mattered....

nba has the worst officiating in all major sports, its been a joke for a while now.

This just makes it worse, although yes he couldve made it a harder foul, the refs did call over 60 fouls in the game???????? I mean how hard do you have to hit him, the whistles worked fine until then.

By the way i had denver and i am happy he didnt blow it but still doesnt mean they didnt screw up

 

[G$$]

they sure did get robbed on that no call, but who knows had they called it denver might of hit a 3 the next play anyway

 

[Willie99]

your also not holding the player accountable.

ever hear of playing until the whistle is called? if he kept going and didn't give up, anthony more then likely would've missed a contested 3 point shot, then a wide open 3 pointer.

it came down to the player just giving up insteadof playing until the whistle is called.

didn't want to foul a three point shooter, had to make sure the foul was clearly before the shot

1) I concur he could have fouled harder or grabbed him

2) the NBA admits they blew the call

 

[chaosman]

if he missed the shot no one would have been complaining

Had Denver ml, I don't deserve to cash this ticket, but I will.

:toast:

heh...me too.

For every Bad Beat, there's a Miracle Win to balance it out.

Nice to be in the latter group this time around

 

[Piranha]

By not calling the foul and with Anthony shooting the 3 pointer giving him 31 points for the game it cost me a win. I ended with a tie playing a Nowitzki -2 prop vs Anthony. hno:

Dirk........33 pts

Anthony......31 pts.

THIS IS THE NBA'S VERSION OF PITT. - S.D. IN THE NFL !
BOL ! E ! :toast:

 

[DA_MOSS]

What about Dirk N. taking a shot w/ 8 sec still left on the shot clock?? Denver should have only had a few seconds to work with at the end. YES, it was a missed call, but the refs also didnt miss those free throws and forget to play defense the last minute

 

[MackDonald]

Any resemblence of the game of basketball the way it is being played in the NBA is long gone (evolution).

It's their "bat & ball", they can play the gme the way they want to (just so long as it sells tickets).

 

[RedElephants]

One of those beats you'll never forget. I had Under 209.5 for the game and it was at 208 when he shot the 3. I honestly thought they had called it off due to the foul.

Never forget that one.......

wright should wrap up melo instead of reaching in then holding his arms back as if he didn't want a foul. it was only after the fact that melo took 2 more steps then shot the ball that he was upset the ref didn't blow the whistle.

players should know to play through the whistle, not to expect one.
