The Official Barry Fouled By Fisher Thread

[zepn]

You should have been down four anyhow. Fisher's shot hit the rim and you SHOULD have had to foul, but the refs were calling a home game all night. It was sad to see how they were favoring the SPURS...

They just showed the re-play. It did not hit the rim.

[stlrbum]

Watch the replay again. Barry makes a jump fake, pulls the ball down and as Fisher is coming down draws the contact. If a call was made it would have been a 2 shots not 3

BTW it looked like a foul to me. Barry was just asked if it was a foul and he said "that's not going to get called".

[kydrice]

I'm for Lakers but I even have to say it was a foul but then again like the Sportstalk speakers are saying, Barry saw Fisher and decided to dive in, he knew what he was getting himself into and couldn't sell his story afterwards. Also take it as a shot back for the uncalled foul against Bowen towards Sasha.

[1Parker1]

That was not a continuation but I do agree that it was a foul.

It doesn't matter if it was a continuation or not. Lakers were in the penalty.

That was a blatant foul. I mean, it wasn't even like it was a little foul or it could have been interpreted any other way. Fisher was literally on Barry's neck. How do THREE refs miss that?

I understand that the refs don't call fouls at the end of games to bail people out, but that wasn't a ticky tack foul.

I hope someone from the Spurs man up and call on this bull in their postgame comments.

Hey...a missed rim shot isn't the same as ing jumping onto a dude.

Ohhh really??

[lakersownspurs]

Hey...a missed rim shot isn't the same as ing jumping onto a dude.

OK you are down by four and Barry shoots 3 shots IF the refs make that call. You STILL lose by one... O??

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Pop needs to take one for the team and get fined and call out the stripes.

That was a foul.

[whottt]

TNT: I never want the refs to decide a game.

Then they say Barry should have sold the foul. What a bunch of corrupt idiots.

[kevinwiz]

Wow Pop Said No Foul

[Bob Lanier]

I love how we go from "Floppin' needs to be addressed" to "He should have sold that foul a little better" to justify like this.

NBA reporters are fundamentally self-loathing.

[2centsworth]

Wow, he made A play. Where was he the rest of the freaking game, one ankle or not?

One ankle or not, are you re ed?

[LakerRings]

ha, popovitch says proper no call

[1Parker1]

Well, Pop just said "It was a proper non-call"

Sometimes I hate this guy.

[watertorture]

It's unfortunate that it came down to a ty no call but that's why they play the game.

Yeah. I always watch games for bad calls.

Spurs across the board never blame the refs.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

OK you are down by four and Barry shoots 3 shots IF the refs make that call. You STILL lose by one... O??

Hey math major, Spurs were down 2.

[T Park]

Pop needs to take one for the team and get fined and call out the stripes.

That was a foul.

Agree 1000%

Wow Pop Said No Foul

They're talking to Pop, not Cuban.

[dbreiden83080]

ha, popovitch says proper no call

Unlike Phil he doesn't whine about that to the press, he keeps it in house and to the refs themselves

[turiaf for president]

"if i was the official i wouldnt have called that a foul"

[timvp]

Both teams played hard.

[akula488]

The MVP only gets 6 FT attempts in 4 games. if you have gripes about that non-call on the clear foul, just think about that sentence over and over.

[lakersownspurs]

Well, Pop just said "It was a proper non-call"

Sometimes I hate this guy.

HAHA!!! That's funny!!

[Don Quixote]

I thought it was rather obvious.

Kobe, or anyone is a Lakers jersey, gets that call.

[ipeefreely]

Cheated. I saw the foul. That was a 3 point FT. I SAW IT. Gipped. That sucks!!!!!!

U are a sorry mistake for an NBA fan...

and how Madam Butterfly do you explain Kobe getting exactly ZERO trips to the charity stripe when he averages 10 plus a game? U cant can U..

Lick you wounds you are done, and your team is in decline and headed for a long run of ping pong balls.......
