Haha
As a matter of fact, I got my eyes checked just today.
Then get your knowledge of the basketball rulebook checked. You don't draw a charge by backing out of the way of a player before taking a dive.
Rip was falling back before Horry even touched him. He had flop on his mind the whole time.

I see what your saying. The more i see it the more I am agreeing with you. I'm not completely giving up though. Does anyone have a different camera angle?
Dude go to a newspaper site, they have a bunch of pictures. Theres a picture out there with rip falling back before horry even comes into contact with him.
owNeDDDD
You got a link?
already. You've been
The dude is willing to admit that he may be wrong. This is only the 3rd time in the history of the Internet that has ever happened. Show some class, folks.
Look. Bottom line? If there's one thing Detroit players and fans alike can learn from the Spurs, it's to stop complaining time and time again about the officiating. If your team was good enough, they would find a way to play through calls that don't go your way.First of all, I want to congradulate your team on a well played game. Horry made some killer shots and Detroit couldn't, and I know that many calls went the pistons way. However...
I think that the play where Horry drove to the hoop for the slam decided the game. He charged to the hoop straight through Rip Hamilton and threw it down. Instead of being called the charge that it really was, it was called a blocking foul on Rip. The Pistons were up four at the time and would have gotten the ball back with a chance to build on the lead and Horry would have fouled out. You guys know as well as I do that without Horry Detroit would have won. Instead of this happening, the lead was cut down to 2 and Horry was left in the game.
Once again, I know that the Pistons got some calls in their favor down the stretch, but none of them had near this big of an impact on the game. I am left with a bitter taste in my mouth after this game because I think the outcome may have been different if the correct call was made.
Have you heard one bit from the Spurs organization all playoffs about the officiating? Nope.
This game was called about as favorably as fans on both teams can expect in a Piston home game. You guys got the majority of the calls.
Even on this play, Rip was sliding left and his foot was on the restricted area line. 2 strikes. That doesn't look like establishing defensive position to me. That's a blocking foul.
How about Chauncey's supposed "shooting foul" by Duncan to give the Pistons a 4 point lead in overtime? That call was atrocious. Chauncey lost possession of the ball going into the lane.
Just about every blocking foul called on San Antonio was a charge on the Pistons, and they were in Detroit so STFU.First of all, I want to congradulate your team on a well played game. Horry made some killer shots and Detroit couldn't, and I know that many calls went the pistons way. However...

Game over if they make the call on Rasheed Webber.
Rip was outside the circle, but he was stepping out just as Horry picked up his dribble, and Rip was still moving and also falling backward when Horry got there.
I didn't get a good look. They showed one replay, from the actual footage it looked like it was clearly a charge. Then the replay made me think maybe but it wasn't sure. I never rechecked the rule books but it did look to me like his feet were set, i didn't think there has to be a time limit before but maybe there is. Not sure about the falling back either. He was clearly leaning back but it wasn't like he was falling. I was VERY pissed off that they not only didn't play it from different angles NOR they talked about what was a very important call. It made me think of the last time theres been a controversial call late in a big game how come they don't go over it like football does? Instead i see footage of horry holding his shoulder. Show me angle after angle, in slow mo. Or don't they do that for fear of the fans maybe knowing that the worst officials in all of sports may have blown a call from time to time?
The play is mute however. How the do you let an old fart like Horry drive from '25 out to throw down viciously on you? He probably couldn't have even got up that high without boosting himself off of Rip with his right arm.
As for the injury to parker, it probably has more to do with this year he actually has an excuse for not being consistant.
and how there was so many times that a charge should have been called on the pistons but where fouls the reffs were just callin it even
Welcome to NBA basketball.
Why is homecourt such an advantage?
Why does damn near every fan point the finger at injustice in the whistle?
I would LOVE to see the winning percantage of the home team in the regular season for past years.
Don't pay no mind to the ones who can only reply with unnecessary name calling.
Especially the numbnut fairweather fans.
While I disagree with your view, I appreciate you coming in without resorting to namecalling. Hamilton was moving. To top it off he fell away before full contact.
It's a damn conspiracy!!
The reason Rip is bailing out to the left is because he knows he hasn't established position and he's trying to get out of there so he doesn't get called for the block but he clips Horry so it's an and one.
Rip would've been better off trying to block that.
It is because Rip doesn't ever want to get hit...not because he is out of position. I have yet to ever see him take a charge, although he may have once.
It's a foul because Hamilton was not set. A replay clearly shows that Hamilton left his feet as Horry was going to the rim. If Hamilton had managed to keep his feet set and square up his body he might've gotten the call. But he didn't and thus was impeding the progress of the offensive player to the basket.
The correct call was made.
