    I saw it live and in the replay he got it off with 0.2ish left, I mean it was obviously out of his hand.

    Why did they wave it off? I turned it off for halftime, so no idea what happened.

    Nah, Utah is failing miserably, he doesn't have to mess with us.

    Did the announcers say anything, or anyone say anything @ halftime?

    Yeah, I need an explanation on this too, because I watched the Mavs feed rewind and play it around 20 times, and even they agreed it was pretty clearly good. The ball was obviously in the air at .01.

    It's cause the Vegas line was -1 for Dallas for the first half. The refs DO play the lines. I'm telling you, go to Bovada, look at the lines and see how refs officiate..it DOES affect them. I never gamble, I'm just not blind to how corrupt the league is.

    The Dallas announcers went over it during the halftime show.

    On a specific angle, the ball was in Lin's hand in a frame when the red light on the backboard lit up.

    On the next frame, the ball was out of Lin's hand.

    0.03 seconds, literally.

    Dallas feed showed 2 fingers with 0.03 seconds left on the shot.

    As long as the Rockets win I'm not complaining, but if the Rockets manage to lose this game, that plays a factor, seems like BS to me either way though.

    Mavs telecast showed after that the court in the back had the red light on and Lin still had two fingers on the ball.

    It looks like we're going to lose by one possession. Good job Stern.

    We have been screwed on every questionable call this entire game.

    Just one of many major clusterfarks that didn't go our way thanks to the refs. No foul calls on us all game and then this.

    The refs went by ONE reply that showed Lin MAYBE has 2 fingers on the ball as the red lights were ABOUT to turn on. So it's not even a clear evidence. All the other cams showed Lin clearly got the ball away. Even the Dallas commentators said so.

    **** you refs, and **** you Dallas. I hope the refs get violently injured on the way home.
