Kobme.
GENIUS!
30 seconds left 99-99.
The Nuggs gave Boi Wonder Kobme a doubleteam and Kobe choked the ball away. Nuggets were gonna take it the other way for the easy dunk and two point lead.
Tweet!
FTs awarded to Kobme.
Of course ESPN-Lakers does NOT replay it at all, and the gy announcers gloss over it too.
Anyone got pics/clear vid of the play or have they all been destroyed?
ehh, it looked like a foul to me..it was just a stupid reach-in by Martin..
Looked like a foul by me but the camera view was too far away for a good look.
But also, after the call, K-Mart looked guilty. He didn't complain or anything... he was just quiet. K-Mart's usually very vocal when he thinks it's a bad call.
Obvious reach in. You would know that if you ever touched a basketball in your life.
Meanwhile, Chauncy Billups is shooting 3 pointers from the front row while the referees just let it slide. The Lakers fix is in!
BOOO to refs who call that after the game has been called entirely as less strict.
LET THEM PLAY and don't let free throws determine a game
Foul. And a dumb one at that.
Then again, it was par for the course for Kenyon Martin.
Obvious foul. These threads are pathetic.
u are an idiot and a hater. that being said, lakers stole game 1.
The double teams were working on Kobe who was strictly forcing up jumpshots at that point in the game. The foul was a dumb risk that was unnecessary IMO.
the ONLY reason that people are saying that it was "stupid" by K-Mart is because of the carefully instructed broadcasters that TOLD them that. you see, the NBA tells the broadcasters to kiss Kobe's ass and make everything about him look perfect.
I am in NO WAY shape or form a fan of that thug piece of Kenyon Martin ... but that was a good move by him and in NO WAY a foul. the NBA wanted Kobe at the line and they wanted the Lakers to win the game and they did everything in their power to make it happen ...

You mean like all the free throws the Thuggets missed? They could have easily won that game if they hit their FTs.
BTW, Kobe and all the BS he gets away with. He should have had 8 or 9 fouls and 3 Technicals. Piece of crap rapist.
Bye the way, they did replay the call...open your eyes
Foul or not, they talked about the look of a foul. If it looks like a foul, the refs are gonna blow their whistles.
Don't worry, the refs made it up by "not seeing" Billups step out of bounds and knocking down that three.
pictures/video?
That fact that a few of the posters saying it was a foul are not Laker Brownozer sheep gives me hope. More who are saying "no foul" tho.
Pics?
It was cheap but it was a foul. Something the refs could have let slide but perfectly en led to whistle. And while he lost control of the basketball, I don't believe he did or was going to lose possession of the ball but I'm not completely sure.
Oh no Kobme most certainly did lose possession of the ball, one of the Nuggs picked it up and was going to head the other way when Tweet!
From what i did see of the game, plenty of other pampering of Kobme. Most notables i saw was he and Mello jostling for position. In no way shape or form was it a foul yet Mello gets the breathing foul call. Same with one of Kobmes drives. Seriously did he even get touched? And the Nene "Hey" whine by Ko .
Back to the play in question tho, hopefully we can get some clear pics and/or video.
Laker-fan-in-SanAnto = BANDWAGON LAKER FAN
Reaching in isn't a foul if you reach in and get all ball. Kobe's reaction is what prompted the refs to blow the whistle. That was a huge swing, as the Nuggets had an easy dunk. I guess Martin should know better by now to make a good defensive play against a superstar player. He should just back up and let them score.
They did show the replay.
