Spurs in a close one
« on: December 01, 2005, 11:01:03 PM »
That last minute was whacked.

I've got to see the travel called on Timmy Dunker to give Dallas a last chance.

Dallas made a lot of young mistakes.  The Van Horn pass to no one  :unsure:

Fabs Oberto was sat by Pop again and it almost cost the Spurs again.  Rasho instead of Fabs. :nonono:

Caught some it while at the gym, including the end.  What in the world was Brent Barry thinking on that foul? Absolutely incredible.  

The Van Horn pass out bounds was weak too.

I think he was initially thinking just put up a defense attempt of the shot, not try to block it and was caught off guard when Mav turned quickly into him.  Barry looked at the ref like it was a weak call, but he is dead wrong.  That was a definite foul.

Even so, right.  What is he thinking fouling with a 4 pt lead and 6 seconds  :eek2:
Outside the 3pt line at that.  :eek2:   could you imagine if Marquis Daniels heave would have fallen? :rofl:

Daniels looked very good.  Diop looks reborn, has lost 60 lbs.  

Parker looks  :hail:

Saw the 4th quarter.

Barry's foul was hard to avoid...he was chasing down the rebound racing Daniels for the ball.  Daniels grabbed the ball first, turned and heaved the ball towards the basket.  Barry & Daniels were in contact before the off balance heave.  Error by refs was to give them 3 FTs.  Should have been a loose ball foul.

Even more bogus was the "travelling" call on Duncan after the obvious push in the back by Dirk.  Even ESPN this morning wondered how all 3 refs could miss the call.  Baseline ref stood there watching Duncan balance on his toes before falling forward and then blew whistle.  Other refs should have stepped up and called the push.

However karma won out as Dirk could not get a decent final shot up.  Bowen harassed Kobe into a horrible shooting night Tuesday then holds Dirk to 3 of 13 including partial block of final shot.

Agreed on the TD travelling call.  Very poor and very annoying as it litterally looked liked Mark Cuban jumpled and made the call for the refs.

Disagree on the Barry foul being hard to avoid.  That's just horrible court awareness to try and reach for that ball.
