    Woo hoo!

    I'll cheer for any team with Sam I Am. Love Payton as well. Bucks were absolutely PATHETIC from the free throw line. 10-20 or something like that I think Kept on missing clutch free throws with under ten seconds left. Nets could not capitalize though. :)

    So was that a foul there at the end of just incidental contact?

    It was hard to tell on the replay.

    Kidd should have taken that last shot of his to the rack, all they need was a two and he shoots a very long two, damn!!

    That definitely is not a foul if Gary Payton is the one playing defense. Maybe if it was someone like Troy Hudson or something. I think those kinds of fouls are stupid anyways. I mean where the hell is the defender suppose to land? Kidd is the one that threw his body into Payton, not vice versa.

    I am confused. I was talking about the last play where Rogers went to receive the pass and he tripped over Payton and fell down. Steal Bucks. Game over. Maybe I missed something. Did Kidd push Payton into Rogers?

    The foul I was talking about is the shot Kidd took. He pumped faked and sort of leaned into Payton while Payton was in the air.

    I don't think Rogers got fouled either. He was scrambling around and his foot hit Payton's knee or thigh. I highly doubt Payton would be able to purposely hit Rodney's foot with his thigh.

    The Rogers trip was not a foul. Payton was covering someone else and Rogers tripped over Payton's leg. Payton had his back to Rogers as he was running to catch the inbounds pass.
