so, the speed of the player being picked is what determines whether it is dirty or not?
and the picked player going faster makes it less dirty?
great logic.
West had a bad back so robert should have moved out of the way like a gentleman

Wow that was ing gay.
I personally don't find either one to be wrong. I don't think a foul should have been called on either. I do think that the spurs fans that chanted Horry when a player is hurt are classless fans. This is just a basketball game.
Spurs fans are amazing.
Seriously.
Even the announcers say this should have been called on PARKER. You guys are grasping at straws. He was clearly standing still. This is another horrible call on the refs. Should have been on Parker. Idiots!
i'm over it, but what about when west "trips" over him while he's down? "modeled after tim duncan" my ass.
The whole point of this thread is that Horry is getting vilified because he did the exact same thing Chandler did earlier in the series. Are you saying that Chandler's pick was clean but Horry's was a dirty shot? If so, you're the idiot here.
Chandler kicks Tony's leg, too, afterward (to add emphasis?) and he (or another Hornet's player) kicks him as the walk over/past him. F*ck NO.
Announcers also said Horry's back pick on West was perfectly legit, so I'm expecting an apology from NO fans who keep calling out Horry.
i AGREE, it was bad...BUT, the NO Hornets fans don't take it...read above...
I mentioned this in a few other threads...I've yet to see a NO fan actually rationalize why Chandler kicks Tony after he levels him either. They seem to conveniently let that part of it slip thru the cracks, talk about hypocrites...
Yea right!!! THE IDIOT IS ONLY YOU!!! DON'T YOU HAVE YOUR OWN EYES to look at the Play in 'slow motion'??? IDENTICAL HITS - Horry and Chandler; plus Chandler kicked Tony in the end of the play and West tried to step over him...WATCH!!!
It is funny to see how defensive and bias some of you guys are. Horry's foul was't a flagrant, it wasn't West Fault. It was a silly, unnecessary foul that is suspect b/c of Horry's past.
Toilet bug fans booing the spurs non stop. I guess NO must really hate greatness huh.
- These people just doesnt get it. he was already hurting even before the hit. Unfortunately for him, this was a set up play by the Spurs and of course, no one knew a blind pick was coming. Blame the Spurs' coaching staff because that was a nice play to get the ball on the inside.
I watched. What the are you talking about you conspiracy theorist . All I see is more straw grasping. ty fans like you don't deserve the team you have. You are a Pussy cry baby !
If asking for equal treatment based on what announcers said in two instances is 'biased', I suggest you get your dictionary out again. You can't have it both ways, moron.
That's EXACTLY what most of the Spurs fans are saying.
It is homeristic NO fans and many Dallas fans (aka, blind Spurs haters) stating that it was a dirty play by Horry. Most Spurs fans think both were just good hard basketball. The only question is, is why is Horry's pick considered dirty and Chandler's just an example of good basketball, when Chandler's was a much harder pick and involved him kicking Parker's leg away afterwards? That's the point of this thread. We're not calling Chandler dirty, we're just annoyed that our players are being needlessly vilified.
Ya'll have to be about 15 years old, lol.
Everyone who's ever watched basketball knows that the Tyson Chandler play was legal. He was standing perfectly still for about a half hour as Tony Parker ran full speed into him. That's Duncan's fault, and Tony Parker will say the same.
Now was the Horry play a cheap shot? Who really knows? We'll never know. All I know is the same guy who took a cheap shot last year is the same guy who dishes out one of the only shots to a back we've seen in the whole series. And it happens to be right in the back of a stationary, jumping all-star who just hurt his back the game before. Maybe it was coincidence, but there's not a person on this board that knows one way or another.
And finally, one of the only things worse than cheering while a guy is on the ground, and then chanting the guys name who took the cheap? shot is actually substantiating it. If you're saying we have some bad fans, and it was embarassing, but not all cheered, THAT I could understand. But if you are trying to defend what actually happen, then I'm sure you are one of those fans that cheered. That is disgusting in every sport, one of the worst things I have seen in all my years of watchig sports, even when Philly fans cheered while Irvin went down, they didn't chant the name of the guy who put the hit on him after he was carted off. I can't believe people would defend that.
2 reasons, and I am not saying they justify anything...just my opinion.
1. West was hurt, it is more dramatic when someone has to leave the game.
2. The cheap shot last year on Nash. Makes an old Horry look suspect.
I don't think the majority of people here feel Chandler's pick was illegal anymore than Horry's. However, Horry didn't kick West's leg afterward or give him a nudge while he's walking over him while he's down. It's also interesting that West's injury came at a time when NO's was already down and he seemed perfectly fine the next day. Good acting job, perhaps?
One controversial hard foul over a career that spanned 15 years and seven championships is what defines a "past"?
Unless, of course, you care to do ent the other incidents that have created this so-called "past"...
Acting Job all the way to the hospital? That would top even a Manu or Parker Flop. No, that is one thing we could take some notes on from y'all and use in the next round (or next year, I am not forecasting).
See: Vince Carter
Couple of quick fouls. Check
Technical. Check
Score gets away from you. Check
Don't want to play for the rest of the game. Check
Get hurt. Check
Don't paraphrase me . You no exactly what I'm talking about. Discrediting someone is a admittance of guilt.
