lmao that was the first time I've ever seen them review a blocking foul and change it to a charge. the Warriors/Curry effect...ugh
they are allowed to review charges. but like webber said, curry moving is part of the call. he was outside but you can't go review for outside the circle and ignore the movement. i'm sure the ref will say he/she thought he was there and wasn't sure only about the circle. but it just cheapens the game to make that call.
I am still in shock. Not only that they went to review that call but that they actually looked at it and overturned it. There was nothing there to overturn that.
Restricted Area Block/Charge Review Since the 2012-13 season, referees have reviewed all block/charge calls when they are not reasonably certain as to whether the defender was inside or outside of the restricted area. For more information about what constitutes a block or a charge, click here). Restricted area replays are conducted only during the last two minutes of the fourth period and during all of overtime. When conducting their review, referees attempt to confirm or overturn their original call. The call is deemed a block if referees deem the defender was: Not in a legal guarding position, or In a legal guarding position, but inside the restricted area The call is deemed a charge if the defender was in a legal guarding position and outside the restricted area. Referees also determine if any unsportsmanlike acts or unnecessary contact occurred.
they were reviewing him being outside the circle? I thought that was the obvious part. he was obviously moving and clipped Wiggins so that should've been an easy blockign call.
So you technically can review this. I suppose the initial call on the block was for inside the restricted area...
Even if he was outside the circle, he was moving. And not only that Towns actually went around him. Ahh well...
actually smart and doubled curry. good on minny. gsw doesn't lose overtime games because 5 minutes is too much time for them to get their act together. minny probably needed to hit a 3 and then hope warriors missed that shot.
I mean there's been numerous games where charges were called towards the end of a game and this is first time I'm actually seeing a review of it. Let alone reverse the judgement call. Wow
OT. But Mitchell is right. Curry dribbled the ball to get control of it, then dribbled again. But it's GS, so that is forgivable.
they basically never call the bobble/dribble as the first dribble. although curry kind of looked like he didn't want to dribble again because they might call it but then he dribbled anyway figuring they never call it. i would be more mad but i see it so many times every game not called.
yeah... I guess it all depends on 'on what' they are reviewing... Personally, i feel its almost impossible that the initial call was for inside the restricted area... She, the ref, was right next to the play...
