You're never gonna get a call on that, EVER.
Besides being in the cylinder, Stoudamire's hand was in contact with the rim. It's an automatic call - goaltending.
You can't make any excuses, we lost the game at the line. But I think we wound up playing 5-on-7 entirely too much.

I'm About To Go ing Postal On The Nba Refs Site Or Whatever.
Why is it always the refs fault? You all got beat. Admit it and come out to play on Wednesday!
Yeah, that's what I thought too. Duncan is not a big enought star though.
The last block by Amare. Wasn't that goaltending since his hand was in the rim?
It was suppose to be goaltending. The ball was over the rim/cylinder....no?
It wasn't. PHX wanted more. Congrats!
The Spurs got beat fair and square. The only thing the Spurs can do is go back to Phoenix and play hard.
Spurs need to improve their FT's over the summer. I can't stand this crap. Losing a game over freakin FT's...
most players don't even know how important FT's are...
In this situation and a chance to extend this series, the refs will stern you every time.
EXACTLY what I was just screaming at the TV about. That was the most obvious case of goaltending I have ever seen. SHould have been basket and 1, which obviously Duncan would have missed and we might still have lost the game.
But still. Could someone explain why 3 refs on the court couldn't see this as goaltending?
it doesn't matter now..
MEMO TO DUNCAN :
When you have to dunk the ball to take your team to the finals you CAN'T BE SOFT.
unbelievable ing disgrace.
Quit Crying People!!! We Lost Already... Geez
I did admit it. Right there where I said, "we lost the game at the line". I have to believe you aren't illiterate, because you managed to post a message. So I have to believe you are just dense.
The Suns won the game. End of story. If you want to twist what I said, it's a free country. You have the right to be as much of an asshole as you chose to be.
I commented on one call. Whether that would have changed the outcome or not... who knows? My only point was that it was too obvious to miss at that point in the game. I can understand missing a close call. But when a player is in contact with the rim during a shot? That is inexcusable.
I am not crying at all. It shouldn't of came down to that last goaltend. But when Amare makes some fouls and a goaltend down the stretch you have to call that. Oh well it's over in 5. Hopefully.
If the ball is still in Duncan's hand (which it was) I don't see how it can be goaltending. That was just an amazing block by Amare.
It amazes me how much ing about the refs comes out when we lose... apparently to some people we should be 82-0.
It looked clean to me. Amare's hand wasn't in the bucket.
Sucks but we'll get'em on Wednesday.
I was impressed with the play by Amare. I think you give him that block, however, Nash shoved Timmy in the back hard on that play. If I'm a ref, I call the push but not goaltending...no way. Nash pushing Tim was smart. Tim was 3-12 from the line. It ended up not being called though.
Suns got it done. Bottom line.
Suns just played better tonight---they were desperate and it showed. Enough on that.
I am curious on that Duncan Dunk, though. What is the rule exactly? Because I thought it would be goal tend also...not that it would have made that much of a difference, but still.
Spurs in 5. I believe
Suns did play better tonight.
Spurs needed a wake up call!
Duncan will be on a mission Wed night.
RULE NO. 11-BASKETBALL INTERFERENCE-GOALTENDING
Section I-A Player Shall Not:
a. Touch the ball or the basket ring when the ball is using the basket ring as its lower base.
EXCEPTION: If a player near his own basket has his hand legally in contact with the ball, it is not a violation if his contact with the ball continues after the ball enters the cylinder, or if, in such action, he touches the basket.
The ruling? It's a goaltend. It was obvious to me when it happened, but I've seen the replay about half a dozen times now. His hand is in contact with the rim. It's an automatic call.Suns just played better tonight---they were desperate and it showed. Enough on that.

If you could set your hand on the rim and cover up the hole, why would anyone ever play any differently?
I'll say it again. The Spurs lost the game fair and square. But it doesn't matter if the Spurs were down by 3, down by 20, or up by 20... the ref can't miss that call.
Did y'all even bother to read what CyberBob quoted?
THat's the rule. , Duncan did the same thing against Denver vs. KMart, and did it last series against Jermaine, if you think those were clean then you need to quit whining about Amare's block.
There were plenty of other Amare infractions to be pissed about, this wasn't one of them.
