Kind of sad that Bucky missed a title last year lol

Now that was mean. Funny as hell though. If he would have been around for the Bucks title his nut-swinging would have hit a level never seen before on this site. It would have been great to see.

Sup, Go Bees!

You have a nice young squad in Charlotte.

Get a good Center and y'all will be a problem for the next decade.

Didn't Papa Ball once say he would have beaten MJ in a game of one on one?

I feel like I should get some kind of reward for never actually getting twitter

well, you did that and also tried to say it was cancelled out by the type of calls (or non-calls) we see every game. Never mind it's at best questionable that those were not correct calls. No question this one was not.

Yes.

Impact on the game was similar.

That is all I am saying.

Impact.

Thanks! They certainly are fun to watch. I wouldn't be surprised to see them trade for one.

One more thing I'd add to this is the ref blew the first whistle with someone else holding the ball (which was why he called him OOB and blew the whistle) but he could not figure out maybe that shot must have taken place after he blew his whistle?

It was a terrible call. They should have been able to figure it out, but they didn’t.

And it didn’t matter because Cleveland won in the need.

No need to further analyze how they might have screwed it up.

But thank God because can you imagine this thread if he was here for that?

okay- this is one of the dumbest posts i have ever seen

the impact on the fucking game was similar?

The hornets got a 4 point play out of it, closed a pretty large gap with 4 minutes left, and then went on a run. 3 GUARANTEED POINTS and a foul shot

geezus man.


A LITTLE DIFFERENT than 2 free throws when a guy was legitimately fouled but the only argument is whether it was shooting or not.


thats like comparing a 5 yard illegal procedure penalty to a 90 yard pass inference call where the receiver kicks the DB in the nuts, drops the ball, but still gets DPI

You're not up that much up if a 4 point play so that large gap crap is BS

If the cavs were up 17 and that cut it to 13 then that's a large gap

We Have A New #1 Worst Call In Officiating History, And It's Not Even Close

What a way to honor the retirement of the great Joe West by making the worst call in officiating history just hours later. There is no explanation for this other than we found the three dumbest humans...

"What a way to honor the retirement of the great Joe West by making the worst call in officiating history just hours later. There is no explanation for this other than we found the three dumbest humans on planet earth to referee the Cavs / Hornets game last night or it was a blatant case of match fixing. But Tim Donaghy wouldn't have even had the balls to make this type of call. The whistle clearly blows, then it's a goof around fest."

twitter is great

 

[WiggyRuss]

bring up an interesting point.

lol...how does that count in the box score? Was that an "official" shot even though it happened when the ball was dead?

Shocker.

You disagree with everything I say.

They traded baskets for like 3 minutes after that call before Charlotte’s barrage of 3s to take the lead.

 

[bksballer89]

one thing I'll say is we are not sure how big of an impact that play really had.

If I'm not mistaken, wasn't charlotte going to have the ball anyway? We don't know what would have happened on that possession. Charlotte very well could have scored there so we are talking about a 1-2 point difference possibly.

Not to mention, if the call was correctly assessed as a T on Davis, it would have been Charlotte’s ball.

Charlotte definitely shouldn’t have been given points for free, but it is quite possible they would have scored on that possession anyway.

Hard to say exactly what the impact was of the call, but you have to factor in the value of the possession they would have had without the free points.

Or 0.

Hit a 3, give Davis a T for touching an opposing player on the court.

The lead official gets his first and only points of his career

You STILL don’t get it, AT ALL. The Cavs winning the game has nothing to do with how awful that call was. The fact is it was the worst call in the history of the NBA, at least dead ball call. It’s more about the punishment of the refs, fined or suspended is the only justification. I could give a rats ass what team won the game, makeup call, etc.
I dont give a shit if they have a tough job, they get paid good for doing their job and they make mistakes but this is only mistake that is inexcusable. You trying to make an justification is more about your beef with Wiggy/Cavs more than anything, it is affecting your judgment. Don’t let it get to you, it’s just one fan that doesn’t like you.

I hope we never have to talk about a call like this again bc this ruins the game for fans and players.
