That was a foul that should have been called as should the foul on Barry.
How about dem Spurs? How about the end of anymore championship runs for the foreseeable future? How about the Lakers once again crushing SAS's le hopes? How about THAT ?
Ive said it was a foul on fisher. Not a shooting foul though.
Is this the official excuse?
Y'all trailed the entire game at home in a must win game. You got out hustled, out boarded, and yet still amazingly got more FTs. The best player in the league got zero fts again...and you want to whine about the one call you didn't get?
Never seen someone run over so many people and act so off the wall than Dazed and not be banned or pinked.
Lakers got bailed out in the end. Oh well, the 24sec thing was a break for us, so we traded.
"ya'll" "you"
Don't you have a Lakers message board to post on? Quit jerking off over here.
We got a gift with that call that scored the two to make us down two.
The ball hit the rim and the refs called shot clock violation anyways and gave us the ball.
We got a gift.
Derek Fisher fouled Barry on the last shot of the game. He should not have to sell the foul to get it called. But it wasn't called.
A gift to the Lakers.
They offset each other.
I know Crawfish screwed us in Game 5 against NOH.
But he didn't do tonight other than let contact at the rim go with Duncan in the final 5 mins.
Spurs couldn't rebound, as usual Manu went to sleep. And Parker is just a here-there type player now. We lost so get over it.
OK, forget the fact that Fisher made contact, obviously Barry traveled first anyway:

Not to mention that in the last minute alone you got a bogus goaltending call on Parker's layup, a 3 pointer by Manu where his foot was clearly on the line and then a bizarre no call when Fisher's shot with 5 seconds left hit the rim.
If that is called correctly, the clock is reset and you have to foul (most likely Kobe) and are down most likely 4 points or 3 points minimum with maybe 2 or 3 seconds left.
There is no way you can honestly believe the officials favored the Lakers tonight, does anyone really believe that? It was a biased fix job in your team's favor for the first 47 mins and 57 seconds of the game.
And Barry does travel, watch the video link above and tell me that isn't traveling.
What a sad mother er. Gave up on his Rockets and spends his days and nights trolling this forum.
did you not see the official thread?
Says the guy that thinks every Laker loss is a conspiracy.
It's weak. They know there were so many calls that were missed at the end to get the Spurs in that position. Refs favored the Spurs for majority of the game just to keep the score close. Every time Lakers made a run, Lakers would get handicapped on defense by ticky tack touch fouls. The worst part is, they got away with the EXACT same thing with Bowen last year yet no one of them will admit it.
Come on Timvp. You are probably one of the most logical SA fans here.
Watch this video:

Does he move both feet before dribbling or not? If he does (which he does) as I am sure you know, that is traveling.
You are really begging to think you will get that call after all the breaks you got from the refs all game long.....honestly, if called impartially the Lakers win this one by 20+
this thread should be named "Official Spurs Fans Whining Thread"
Yep. All I see was typical whiny Spurfan moaning and groaning. Were you one of them too?
Hmm... I was thinking the "Official Lakers fans have no life so post on Spurs boards Thread".this thread should be named "Official Spurs Fans Whining Thread"
Yeah...
A typical Spurfan thread dominated by the laker homers blathering the same crap that you posted for the last two hours.
Spurs fans should not be so upset at the refs no call at the end but rather the poor performance for about 45+ minutes from the spurs.
yea it stinks that barry got fouled and there was a no call but if we wouldve played just a little bit better we wouldnt be in that situation
+1
Agreed, good post.
Joey Crowford should not ref in NBA and Im lakers fan. he's just bad.
What I hate most in sports with ref is that they make mistakes then give other team make up calls for that, causing more troubles and making games unwatchable.
In looking at the replay, it was a two shot foul on Fisher (Lakers were in the Penalty), and this "selling the foul" stuff is just stupid on the part of the TNT guys - they are better than that, but in the end those guys work for the league. Fisher hit Barry from above coming down because he got fooled by Barry's ball fake on the play. And Joey C swallows his whistle.
The ABC/ESPN announcers were all beside themselves when LeBron James did not get a call at the end of game 3 of the 07 finals with much less contact. On this one, Barry should have "sold it more"? Please. It's an obvious foul. The no call then prevents Barry from getting a clean look at a game winning shot.
How ironic it is that the play determining the Spurs 07-08 season in all likelihood is determined by Joey Crawford looking on as Derek Fisher fouls Barry?
Bill Simmons from the ESPN website predicted this very scenario before the playoffs even began - the Spurs getting hosed on a game ending "no call" play and Joey Crawford (of all people) is the official making the "non-call". Barry had no chance to even lauch an accurate shot because the defender ran into him.
The Spurs have a contentious history with Crawford. In the 2006 playoffs against the Mavericks (Game 3 I think), Joey Crawford calls a foul with less than 24 seconds left in the game when Dirk Nowitski steps on Tim Duncan's PLANTED foot. The last year the infamous "I'll throw you out because you are laughing on the bench" call against Duncan. Joey gets suspended for the playoffs with his ridiculous behavior. And of course in 2006, the officials did NOT swallow their whistles in game 7 with Dirk N getting a foul call on Ginobili.
Why does the NBA put itself in this position in the first place? It's human nature to hold a grudge against someone when something bad happens to you like what happened to Crawford last year when he lost his mind. The NBA in its infinite wisdom assigns Joey Crawford to this key game. Joey blows the end of game call that was pretty apparent.
The Spurs got a raw deal on this one. Barry should have received two free throws and a chance to tie the game (which is no guarantee, an OT would have occurred only if he made them both). All the other calls or non calls in the game may or may not have determined the outcome. This play DID determine the outcome without question and Joey Crawford blew it again. This guy has a freakin record of criminal tax evasion (underreporting income by selling first class airline tickets years ago) in his past, so his integrity and judgement on and off the court comes into question.
I'm sure the most of the Laker people will throw out the sour grapes card since they are more interested in getting to the finals than this Joey Crawford stuff. The NBA will be happy the Spurs (in all likelihood) will be eliminated from the finals.
Piston fans be very concerned. They will stick to you too.

The shot clock violation that gave the Spurs the ball, offsets the no call on the foul.
Yes it was a foul. Should have been called. Oh well. They got a gift, the same gift we got getting the ball and scoring a bucket to be down two.
Canceled each other out...
