Don't be in a position to lose by that shot, tbh
Though it's water under the bridge and Spurs cant cry over spilled milk, there were 2 blatantly obvious missed calls in the last 2 plays of Game 3:
1) Manu was hacked on the hand on the go-ahead layup - no call by the ref which would have potentially put Spurs up 3.
2) Carter traveled and clearly took extra steps once he caught the ball in the corner - watch out he hopped - it's actually one of the most obvious travels I've ever seen!
Watch this youtube video and fast forward to 5:25 mark to see the foul and the BLATANT travel by Vince.

Now Spurs gotta go play their game, make defensive adjustments and bring back an even series to SA!!
GO SPURS GO!!!

Also the phantom call on Diaw for Monta's and 1
But cmon bro we just gotta move on. It's not like the league is going to apologize for it or something.
Shut up got. Y'all lost to a ing 8th seed nuff said LOL
THE FIX IS IN
Still a loss. Series changing. To an 8 seed...
The blatant travel not called on Monta then called on mills the next possession. Wtf? I think Monta went and hit a 3 we don't get a shot, 5-6 pt swing possibly.
The point is we should be killing these guys. The games shouldn't even come down to missed calls.
the refs are screwing us
By that logic all the higher seeds should be winning their series. It doesn't always work like that. In the playoffs, things are different.
Spurfan blaming refs for losses, per par...
Also the foul on Bowen at the end of Game 4 and then ing Diop mugging Tim on the putback.
Wonder what will be the excuse tonight
Just stop.
The ing bench is killing us.
We lost by one. Ginobili hit what should have been the game winner with 1.7 after running the clock down from 25.
What seed was Denver again?....oh ,my bad.
If patti mills, green and marco stop playing for the mavs. We might have a chance in
Does Denver still have a basketball team?
Refs have been fine in this series, tbh, they aren't going to make those calls at the end of a game..
The only problem I've had with the officiating is that they haven't called Ellis for traveling, even though he travels virtually every time he catches the ball and makes a move, tbh..
Doesn't clock stop on the foul call? Would have left more time for the game-tying/winning shot (depending on if Manu made the FT) given how long that ball rolled around the rim. Think it left his hand at around 3.5 seconds so potentially an extra two seconds.
Given how many times the league has admitted ref mistakes already this postseason, I don't think there was one here for them to fuss up to.
I just confirmed what I suspected all along by going to the Grantland/ESPN site with an NBA playoffs article. It showed a full view video of Carters "pump fake" on Manu where he shuffles BOTH FEET trying to square up on the shot. The TV feed was from behind and you could not see Carter's feet. This view shows the travel VERY OBVIOUSLY. That is a travel no question about it. The gutless idiot referee did not do the job he was hired to to. In addition, the NBA should acknowledge that blatant error. That was a travel. PERIOD. I don't care if it is the first quarter or the fourth quarter. Manu blocks that shot if Carter properly holds his pivot foot (which he switched AND still shuffled his feet)
One of the three stooges they call referees was looking right at the play and his view was not blocked. He swallows his whistle. Pathetic. There was no way Carter gets off that shot without traveling because of his body momentum. Why even have a rulebook if the rules are poorly enforced.
It just make me more angry about the whole situation. As a result, the Spurs essentially have to win 5 out of 7 instead of 4. That makes the whole series an "*" for Dallas if the "win" in six or seven games. If it goes five, then Dallas probably earned it.
