Whatever gets you through the day. Your posts have been pretty weak overall.
Be careful Dirty Hypocrite, sounds like you almost use an four-letter expletive.

Like I said, I realize you are a priss, I won't swear at you anymore.
You keep responding to them though, so you must like them an awful lot. People I don't find interesting, I don't respond to. Pretty simple.
Here's what I think about the whole situation.
Was it a foul? 100% yes, anyone who tells you otherwise is well, delusional .
to make my next point, first take a look at this picture.
Now, was Brent Barry in the act of shooting? In my opinion? No.
Barry pump faked, fisher bite, barry took a dribble to shake the defender. fisher fouled barry in the act of dribbling, not in the act of shooting.
To me, it would have been an easy foul call, 2 FT shots.(since the spurs were in the bonus)

What are your thoughts on the Middle East?
Spurs should have never been in that position to tie the game, had the refs called Fish's shot hitting the rim correctly. Lakers would have had a fresh 24-second clock and L.A. would have ran the final seconds off until the Spurs send Kobe to the line to put them away.Here's what I think about the whole situation.

Not just Fishers shot hitting the rim, the awful goaltending call as well.
If there was ANY kind of replay system in the NBA the Spurs never would have been in that position in the first place.
Just proof that some kind of changes need to be made.
These two are pretty much indisputable:
-Fishers shot hit the rim, and the call was blown in favor of the Spurs
-Odom did not goal tend and the call was blown in favor of the Spurs
Both occured in the last 30 seconds and gave the Spurs a shot to win they never should have had. That's not even being a homer, even Laker haters I've talked to have said the same thing.
agreed, and besides no one wants to see the game decided by the refs...
I personally like it when refs swallow their whistles for game winning, last shot situations, if you want to win the game, than do it, the refs shouldn't bail a team out.
IF you spurs fans are going to pick on the refs bad calls, we laker fans get to too.
lakers got a bad call at the end, spurs got a bad call at the end. refs aren't perfect.

I don't see any contact at the points when your silly gif shows them.
go to the previous .jpg right click save as it's #24 & 25, if there's no contact where does Barry' left hand dissapear to?
lol
So not only was this not goaltending, but I just realized Manu's foot was on the line as well. Good times.
Obv not goaltending
I'm not arguing that other , you call travel i call bull on that. My stance on this game is already on record here and i ain't going over it again
I'm not vehemently arguing that one call was a travel, I was honestly looking for reasoning from people why it wasn't.
I personally thought it was close tbh and not definite either way. It was clearly a foul though.
Barry's arm made contact with Fisher before his leg came down. I spent an hour just making sure that really was the case.
The game is over and if Barry had been given 3 free throws or even two to tie the game it would have been a major injustice to the Lakers given the decisions prior to that one...
We didnt deserve to win... they did.
nobody deserves to win, they're earned like anything else,
except welfair.
even if it's a travel, NO way can the refs spot that travel.
we can barely spot it with a slowed down video. (and even with the slowed down video, it's a debate)
so how are the REFS going to do it in real time?
Look, I agree, you guys got screwed on the last play, but we got screwed by the miscalled shot clock reset.
If you spurs fans are going to whine and moan, maybe us laker fans should too!
Lakers14 ies really was stupid, even for a Lakers fan.
I agree, it should have been a foul call and 2 FT.
Anyway, I can only hope that the team (specially Manu) gets ready for the next game because it won't be easy. If the Spurs really want to get to the finals they will need to step up and Pop will have to make some smart adjustments.
I still trust on the Spurs, as long there is a chance, there is hope.
and duncan got away with a travel and the calls went your way the entire game why are you complaining. You didn't complain when you cheated the suns last year hypocrites.

interesting post-game quote of Coah Phil:
one letter Phil ->>>>>game 4 >>>> *It was supposed to go to Ginobili in the corner, a bold move considering he’d made just two field goals all night. Instead, the ball swung back to Barry, in the midst of the best playoff game of his life.
Barry turned, surprised to find Fisher in his path. Fisher bumped him, and forced Barry into an awkward attempt.
Afterward, Lakers coach Phil Jackson admitted it: Barry was fouled, and should have been awarded two free throws.
The bottomline is anyone who has watched all 4 games can clearly see the Lakers are a better team than the Spurs. I've always felt championship teams win in spite of the refs.
Whether you want to believe it or not, the majority of the calls in this game were not in the Laker's favor. I was straight livid after that pathetic 1st quarter, and yet again Kobe has 0 F/T's despite taking 20+ shots.
I agree totally with slimjim.
The foul was on the floor and Barry should've gotten 2 free throws.
Give me a ing break. Kobe shot 1 FT in 2 games. ONE> Your theory doesn't hold . Bunch of ing whiners. You get calls ALL GAMELONG, like:
1. Duncan's blatant travel on the dunk - not called.
2. Odom's clean block on Parker's layup - called a goaltend.
3. Fisher's shot hitting the rim - shot clock not reset, giving SA the last shot.
4. Kobe not shooting any FTs on 29 FGA. Seriously.
5. Barry traveled before Fisher even touched him - not called.
6. Barry and Pop even agreed it was not a foul - just like most of the media. The only ones complaining are you guys.
Go back to your salsa dancing and mariachi on the River Walk and STFU.
