So much of it is superficial. If you have a guy driving, and another defender running at top speed, there's a decent chance there will be a pretty ugly collision with the offensive player getting the worst of it. Sometimes the arm gets the ball, sometimes it misses, things are going so fast and it's incorrect to assume that what happened at that high speed is what the players exactly intended. All of the slow motion analysis is completely ridiculous when trying to judge intent because the events didn't happen in slow motion.

It does make one miss the good old days:

This would make the internet explode day - McHale probably would have been suspended for the rest of the playoffs.

Absolutely brillant post! 100% agree.

And how is this different than every other sport? Stars are treated differently. Greg Maddux got pitches called strikes that no other pitcher would get for years. Who is most likely to get a roughing the passer called when he gest a tap to the head? Tom Brady or John Beck? Stars are given the star treatment because they are stars.

No I agree with that stars are obviously treated differently which is not a problem as long as every teams stars are treated the same unlike a few major teams so on that I agree.

But stars aren't evenly distributed across teams.

Stars are always going to get the benefit of the doubt, that's not a conspiracy, it's just human nature. If Greg Maddox is working the corners, the umpire is going to be expecting it, Maddux looks like he knows what he's doing, and he's going to get that call. If a wild rookie is all over the plate and one pitch accidently gets a corner, it's hard to call that pitch a strike because the human brain just doesn't see it that way. If it seems like an accident, or your brain isn't expecting it, it's going to seem like a "worse" pitch than if a guy is consistently hitting his spots.

I think there's a similar dynamic at play in basketball. When a star misses a shot it's easier to "see" the foul, because you espect him to make that shot.

Nice performance from the Magic after a bad game two. Next game we'll have Alston and Lee for the first time this series.

whomario · 05-08-2009, 08:50 PM

why the hell do they stay with a blowout instead of going to Houston ?

Big Fo · 05-08-2009, 08:52 PM

Maybe there was an NBA equivalent of the "Heidi game" back in the day.

whomario · 05-08-2009, 08:59 PM

Lakers look very, very good righzt now. To tell you the truth i am concerned a little ...

And as a coach i hate that cross-matchup at the 3/4 that the Rockets go with. Artest gets manhandled on the boards and Scola gets killed in transition.

great offense by both teams, Rockets still too many turnover though. If they would get a good PG for once ... And boy, that last hookshot on the move by Yao was amazing, just as that pass off the dribble earlier. The guy is freaking 7´6 ...

whomario · 05-08-2009, 09:19 PM

Artest seriously passes up 2/3 of his open shots ...

whomario · 05-08-2009, 09:53 PM

Lakers by 2 at the half. Rockets with 11 Turnovers, most totally unforced really ... The good is that Kobe slowed down after a hot start and now has 14 on 13 shots, Rockets take that every time. And Yao much more involved and with 14 as well and plays great defense moving his feet and contesting shots. Gasol just 2-7 is a result of this.
I think in now 2 1/2 game the Lakers may have gotten half a dozen points on post ups from their big guys combined, that´s how good a post defender Yao has become. Gasol is a pretty good post player that is a potential 20 point scorer and he doesn´t even bother.

hearing Avery Johnson´s voice makes me cringe. It´s like chalk on a chalkboard for my ears ... He may or may not make good points, but my hearing cells just tune out in an act of self-protection ...

Neon_Chaos · 05-08-2009, 10:32 PM

The Lakers have finally settled down and are letting their major talent advantage over the Rockets take over.

They will need to keep this up to keep the Rockets at bay in the fourth.

Neon_Chaos · 05-08-2009, 10:35 PM

Wow.

whomario · 05-08-2009, 10:38 PM

what a shot ... Though there you saw the difference between Battier/Artes. Battier would have had a hand up, there´s no way Braynt has time to take another dribble there ...
Rockets are self destructing. Yao misses a couple so you go away from him ? No way ... Bryant did a terrific job denying Battier (aka "the one guy that can and does pass to the post consistently") the ball.
Artest´s shot selöection is all-time-bad.

whomario · 05-08-2009, 11:03 PM

I´m getting a Ron Artest vodoo-doll as soon as i´ll get up in the morning ... If sanyone blames this on Yao i´m going ballistic. He works his ass off and his teammates don´t execute at all. Battier is the only exception, who btw just is a terrific entry passer. The one to Artest a couple minutes ago was awesome.
If the Lakers hit their shots they are tough to beat.

Bryant with the dagger. Yao is limping ...

Neon_Chaos · 05-08-2009, 11:06 PM

And that Kobe three (4th quarter) was the dagger. This one is over.

larrymcg421 · 05-08-2009, 11:19 PM

Reputations work both ways for referees. There's no way that's a flagrant 2 if it's anyone other than Ron Artest.

Absolutely very weak call there

Neon_Chaos · 05-08-2009, 11:20 PM

Lol @ Artest.

I wonder what kind of wacky interview tidbit he'll give out next.

whomario · 05-08-2009, 11:20 PM

Yao with what looks like a pretty heavy bruise on his right knee too , propably carry over from game 1 ... And that´s sth that isn´t coming out of nowhere, might have bothered him a long time before that obvious limping ...

A Flagrant 2 ???

No one else but Artest gets thrown out for that, no one.

and @ the rockets : Quit fouling allready ...

props to Kobe for that statement on the foul by Artest.

RainMaker · 05-09-2009, 12:00 AM

Lakers are just too deep. No one in the West can hang with them for 7 games. Don't know how Artest gets a Flagrant 2 for that one. Especially with what we've seen from these playoffs.

Danny · 05-09-2009, 12:35 AM

That was just a hard foul, not a flagrant. It had no bearing on the outcome of the game though.

molson · 05-09-2009, 06:21 PM

whomario · 05-09-2009, 07:10 PM

This has to be called. Then again, why in the world doesn´t wright simply wraps his arms arround him, swipe at the ball or whatever ...
Seeing Dirk there was heartbreaking. The guy just broke down inside when that final buzzer sounded and just had all life sucked out of him, with all the drama in his personal life and now this ...
Dallas though simply failed to execute late. They didn´t get Dirk the ball in decent spots, way too much dribling nescessary for Nowitzki on all 4th quarter shots. Kidd missed him on a couple entry passes and Howard was just playing out of control the last 5 minutes after reentering ...

Should have been called as an intentional foul. Two shots and the ball.

come on now, you are being silly here, aren´t you ? A Bumb on the baseline is not exactly a clear path foul ... Every foul in theese situations is "intentional", but that´s not even in the rule book. There is no special punishment for an intentional foul on the ball.
It´s 1 shot and the ball also, no ?

NBA.com - RULE NO. 12-FOULS AND PENALTIES

Wright made a mistake though. Not a clear enough foul and then he quit playing expecting the whistle. That´s just a mental breakdown. Somehow i´d wish for Dirk to get the hell out of Dallas and be a complimentary 2nd star somewhere earlier than later.

Of course I am being silly. But that was as "intentional" a foul as you can get. It goes back to the discussion of the league creating "special" foul categories that IMO over-legislate the game.

miami_fan · 05-09-2009, 07:51 PM

Dola,

It was hilarious to see the Mavs begging for a foul call after spending the previous 47 minutes protesting foul calls.

Eaglesfan27 · 05-09-2009, 08:20 PM

They just announced on ABC that Yao is out for the playoffs due to a hairline fracture. Disappointing as I was looking forward to the Rockets pushing the Lakers and hopefully upsetting them.

Sort of the polar opposite of the quit-once-we're-ahead Hawks.

That whole damned group isn't worth a bucket of warm spit and it was refreshing to hear the crowd start to get that realization in the 4th quarter. Please, Hamilton ON, you want a franchise from Atlanta? Take the Hawks.

stevew · 05-09-2009, 10:10 PM

That OOP in the first quarter was insane.

I agree. I was just thinking that I can't wait to have a son, so he can say he got to watch the greatest basketball player who ever lived.

That being said, would anyone be surprised if it came out tomorrow that LeBro is on steroids. I mean, his career/body path isn't that different from A-rod, and he's the same size as Julius Peppers. I'm not saying he's not the greatest basketball player I've ever seen, but it just seems odd that in this day and age no one seems to have even broached the subject.

I don't know who the guy who was trying to foul was, but he didn't help himself out by putting his hands up in the air after making the hack. The foul also should have been harder.

I agree, you need to wrap that player up. I don't really have a problem with the no call there.
