That is an unfathomable call.

[Spursfanfromafar]

Worst call ever..

[Chinook]

Unbelievably bad. Five-point swing.

6. Should have been a 4 point play with a foul on the defender. If he hits the free throw, that's 4, +2. Insane.

[Thebesteva]

Made a bad call. So what? Its the Raptors

Were there two tech FTs? That makes it worse.

he did stretch the leg for no reason though, the guy could have gotten seriously injured.

Only pussies & assholes blame the officiating.

Probably one of the worst calls if not the worst call this season imho, it's amazing how NBA refs can blow calls and the moment anyone has any reaction they get T'd up. Pathetic if you ask me. I'm actually surprised things like Noah's recent outburst on the refs don't happen more often.

[resistanze]

Lowry has been on the shit end of 2 of the worst late-game offensive foul calls this season. First in Brooklyn now this. Wake me up when they start fining referees.

[D-Wade]

Wow dude's getting screwed this year. No all-star vote & now a shitty call.

i thought the kings were tankin

Not blaming nada, just pointing out ineptitudes.

Good call

[gnsf0946]

Adam Silver was at that game, Kings got 51 FTA tbh

BS. You're playing the ref card. It's pussy & assholish.

You're a little old to be dressing up as an ostrich and sticking your head in the sand, aren't you?

[Jacob1983]

So when will the NBA give a shitty apology but offer no do over?

[Cry Havoc]

Fromwaydowntown, I see you lurking. Your thoughts?

[DMC]

Good call tbh. Lowry kicked the defender's leg out from under him. He wasn't knocked down by the defender.

[Spurs da champs]

So the rookie did not throw himself at Lowry?

[Chomag]

NBA refs just being NBA refs nothing to see here move along.

[DMC]

So the rookie did not throw himself at Lowry?

Here's the real issue:

1. Game score situation was close. That seems to make people think calls are more important. Rarely is a 1st quarter call reviewed by fans.
2. Lowry has a history of kicking his leg out to gain separation and to attempt to draw a foul. He was caught that time. He did not need to throw his leg out into the defender to make that shot. If that's his "natural motion" he needs to fix it.
3. The shooter has the right to rise up and come down unimpeded, but he doesn't have the right to impede the landing of the defender, especially if that motion can cause an injury.
4. It doesn't matter who the defender was, rookie or not. Lowry kicked his legs out from under him.
5. The defender jumped toward the shooter but did not make contact. anywhere but the leg which was caused by Lowry, not by the defender.

Here you can see that the defender jumped across the shooter's path, not on top of the shooter, but the shooter stuck a leg out and tripped the defender in an attempt to draw a foul.

I didn't read that stupid shit. That was not a foul and he didn't even touch anyone. Get the fuck out of here with your analyzed post of dog shit.

"the scientific formula for a foul includes...." shut the fuck up

[JamStone]

I don't like the call here, but officials have been told to call this a foul now. Lowry kicked up his right leg for contact. It's pretty apparent. It wasn't egregious like other examples we've seen before. But he did it. I think common sense would tell most officials to not blow the whistle there. But I wouldn't say it was the wrong call or a bad call. Like I said, I don't like the call in this instance, but I wouldn't say it was a horrible call. Letter of the rule, the call was fine.

[Medvedenko]

Need to see a better angle, looks like the defender's hip collide slightly with Lowry's and this caused a slight turn and hence the legs jutts out.....should have been a no call.

He got a fucking tech for trying to not argue a bullshit call? The nba needs to fine all 3 reffs for that. What a joke.

[DMC]

You people bitch about flopping, bitch about intentional contact to draw fouls by people like Harden and Durant, then bitch when the intentional contact and flopping aren't rewarded.

Make up your fucking minds.

agree, spurs fans should be last to complain about intentional contact and flopping because that argentinian baldhead is like the genesis of all those shits imho.

It's not about the refs. If we want refs to swallow their whistles, then don't bitch when that affects your team. I just want consistent calls, not situational calls. I don't think a ref should be less inclined to call a foul based on the moment or score. I think a foul during a mid season tipoff should be the same foul in game 7 of the NBA finals with 10 seconds to go and a tied game, in the bonus. Knowing the refs tendency should not be part of a win. Playing the refs for calls shouldn't need to happen. You should get a foul call if you're getting fouled. If you can attack the rim and get to the line because you're getting hacked because the other team cannot defend the rim, that's a legit tactic. Flopping isn't.

I'd like to see the refs taken out of the game as much as possible. I don't even want to know their names.

I agree with what you said, thats how it should be.

I think I had a bigger problem with the fact that running away from a reff to avoid confrontation can get you a T. I think Kyle is a class A d-bag btw, but that is some scary power the Zebras have.

I get that, but they did the same to Lebron James. They know the rules, they get paid millions to play the game. Why show your ass when you don't agree with the call? Ever see one reversed? I haven't. So instead they get extra penalties for lashing out about it. Coaches do it to, but some of that is intentional to get the team fired up. When you've going to lose the game, just let it go.
