    Jazz foul Yao Ming at the offensive end, no call. They foul him at the defensive end, no call. They foul him in the act of shooting, no call. They foul him catching the ball, no call. Foul, foul, foul, no call, no call, no call.

    Last 6 seconds of the game: Yao catches a Utah airball. He's standing there in the middle of the court, holding the ball, an entire arena and the TV audience staring at him. Next to him are Boozer and Millsap. They proceed to hack him, egregiously, 5 times, desperately trying to get any of the referees to blow the whistle.

    No call. 6 seconds, 5 fouls, no call.

    Live by the uncalled hack, die by the uncalled hack. Eat it, Jerry.

    Haha I'll trade that call at the end for all the no calls earlier in the game.

    Another GEM by Will! Exactly what I was thinking about.

    And T-Mac had that fire. He was moving like a thunder compared to his game 4 play with 5 seconds left in the second quarter.

    Exactly. I saw that, too. Every freaking Jazz player was trying to get the call. But deadly silence. They could not believe it. So they hacked Yao again. No call. Everybody was shocked. I mean, dumbfounded. I was, too. The whole thing was just hilarious. Then I laughed so hard that I cried.

    Game was over by that point anyway.. so it wasn't like the no-call changed the outcome of the game (just incase utah fans start b*tchin)

    But yeah its nice to get it over and done with.. With less than 6 seconds and no time outs down by 4 (soon to be 6 with Yao's FTs) Utah lost this one anyway.. Muhaha!

    Well, shoot, I just assumed they'd given up being down 4 pts and all. Will have to watch that again and again. :D

    To be fair they were kind of just gently slapping Yao's arm...it was very half hearted when all they had to do was wrap their arms around him to get the intentional foul call. They were too busy complaining about Yao's rebound being a goal tend (which it wasn't obviously).

    It was funny the last few seconds. Boozer and the other guy
    were begging for a foul call on them, and the 2 refs just stood
    there swallow their whistle, just like the first 3 quarter.

    I guess they wanted to be consistent for the whole game. ;)
    My bro was yelling at the TV that refs fixing the game, he
    needed the Rockets to win by less then 4. *lol* :D
