i agree it shouldn't be a foul call either. but when you call it earlier in the game, and then swallow the whistle now. it's really stupid.
That is what pisses me off about Kobe... he gets more calls than anyone in the league but still complains about not getting a call on plays like that when he must know he was not fouled.
Because they weren't fouls. It was minimal contact if any. The reason this board cries about it is because Kobe gets the call with minimal contact yet it wouldn't be called the same for Orlando.
Clean block. Like I said, this game has been called very well. Those of you crying about calls need to give it up.
well obviously because i'm pretty much on an island as rooting for the lakers. considering there hasn't been a single "oh man that was a foul on the magic" post and yet tons of "holy crap, they're just giving the lakers the game" posts when the magic are winning PF's and FT's by a solid margin tells you all you need to know. and i've said for 5 or 6 years the lakers suck at last second plays. it's amazing how they always screw them up. kobe drives himself into trouble or takes an impossible 3, or odom gets the shot and does something horrible. or something goes wrong. they never get good looks and an amazing amount of the time don't even get the shot off like this time.
