Even ? (Silver Stars)

[timvp]

I just saw the replay and it wasn't that bad of a call. It was more bad judgment by the Silver Stars player.

With two seconds to go, the other team with no timeouts and inbounding under their own basket, there's no way you even put a ref in the position to make a call. First of all, the Silver Stars player didn't give the other player room to catch the ball and turn around. That alone can be whistled for a foul. But then on top of it to take a wild swipe at the ball was an even worse idea. Even if the swipe is successful, there's nothing good that could have come out of it.

It looks like there was no contact on the play but even so, there were multiple defensive mistakes on the play. In that situation, you let the player shoot from three-quarters court. You don't contest the catch, dribble or shot other than just standing there with your hands up.

Tough way to lose but hopefully they can go to Phoenix and win two on their homecourt and make Phoenix hate San Antonio even more. I'm not a WNBA fan but can't start letting Phoenix think they can win a playoff series against San Antonio.

I just Googled Becky Hammon. She's actually attractive. When did the WNBA start getting attractive women to play?
