Nova should've been shooting more FTs.

At least 8 more than they shot.

8 more bricks? If you can't hit 'em it doesn't matter whether phantom fouls are called or not.

Terrible... Just terrible

it's been hard to watch this tourney.

the officiating has been atrocious.

I've seen better refs at the local HS games.

Nothing phantom about them.

Knocking a guy to the ground with your hip is a clear foul.

you know...if you understand the rules. at all.

You see it with Duke all the time.

To beat Duke you have to win 8 on 5.

every time.

Michigan St is another team like that.


Kansas too

I'll give refs the benefit of the doubt in real time, but that replay call was the most atrocious shit I have ever seen. It hit three fingers and actually bent his fingers.

The contact there was much stronger than the Winslow call in the title, and even two years later, drunk people tell me that call was bullshit if they see I'm wearing a Wisconsin BBall shirt.

On the berry play, i"ll just emphasize again that the rulebook doesn't give you 2 complete steps.

You get one "step" with your non-pivot foot, and then you are allowed to life your pivot foot solely to pass or shoot. If the pivot foot comes back to the ground before you release the ball, it is a travel.
