http://www.nba.com/video/channels/nba_tv/2009/01/20/nba_20090120_mtc_instantreplay.nba/ The refs will soon be allowed to use instant replays to determine calls. Can't wait til the rule is officially implemented
Does anyone know if it's going to be like the NFL where they have a limit of challenges? Can't watch the video for some reason (nba.com...grr).
Dam never mind I actually thought the instant replay rule is set up on fouls. Got too excited shouldn't watched the video before posting it>.< admin please lock this up
Instant replays is a bad idea. The game will get a lot longer and more boring then it already is. The refs just need to get better and also stop having superstar calls. Instant replays in the last minute though might be a good thing.
no this is just review on the foul if the refs not sure it should be 2 or 3 shots (fouled on 3 pointer or 2 pointer). other fouls won't be reviewed.
they should start penalizing refs fine them like players get fined or dont let them ref for a certain amount of days therefore penalizing their pay
They've already implemented this, they have even done it once or twice in Rockets games. Go figure they'd use it for the one call the refs usually don't screw up. It'd be really nice though if there were an NFL-like challenge system set up. You get 1 challenge per half, and if you're correct, you keep it. If you're wrong, the other team gets a technical free throw for delay of game or something.
yep, something like this should be a no brainer. I might increase it to 2 challenges per half only in the event that you are correct on your first challenge, though.
If they would use instant replay on Violet Palmer, I'm sure she will be working at 24 hour fitness as a personal trainer, yelling out rep counts to her clients!
