True enough. Graduation, and all.
However, there is the magic of TiVo.
That and you're gonna be banned in about 20 minutes, best to focus on graduation anyway. And congratulations of course
I agree very much with these quotes, touch foul at best, you are never going to get those calls unless they paid out the refs, watch the replay and quit whinning, the refs did the right thing, let the players win the game, no play interference, nothing, barry could have drive a yard past fischer and hit the shot, he had time, but he choke so get over it.
I find this quote fascinating
"With the benefit of instant replay, it appears a foul call should have been made," league spokesman Tim Frank said Wednesday.
I don't believe I'll be banned, unless you've confused me with somebody else.
But if you do ban me by mistake, I'll try to get over it.
Go Lakers!
Idiot...it does not matter if Barry turned and was running away from Fisher as fast as he could, if Fisher hits him it is a foul you stupid .
Geez you guys are stupid.
The fact that he got hit and while trying to avoid the contact makes it a more blatant foul, not a lesser one. IF you weren't an idiot you'd understand that.
Cue LakerFan posting the Jack (WALTON) Ramsey take:
I won't ban you, but its no mistake, you posted in the thread where if you post and you're a lakers fan you get banned for 24 hours
Here's the problem.
NOT a goaltend
-Fishers shot hit the rim. Not disputable. Everyone knows it. It was a blown call in favor of the Spurs. Should have been a new 24 and 2 FTs for the Lakers.
-Odoms block was NOT goaltending. Again, not disputable, and everyone knows it. Should have been Lakers ball instead of 2 pts for the Spurs. Blown call in favor of the spurs.
The truth is the Spurs never should have had the chance to win the game in the first place because they had two blown calls in their favor in the last 20 seconds.

It was right call for how the game was called. This kind of "letting the players play" through all game is favoring teams like Spurs and Jazz. So, be grateful to the crew to give you the best chance to win in the first place!![]()
Enjoy your jaded win Laker fan......here have this: *
Bottom line is you maggots wanted the refs to bail out Brent in Barry. Uh no. Not this season or any other season. Great defensive play by Fisher, considering the final result.
Like Lakeshow said, the Lakers were out of 3 to 5 possible points in the final minute alone. Parker was awarded 2 points on an incredible shot block by Odom - 2 points. Manu's foot was on the line - 1 point. Fisher's shot hit the rim but was called an airball, giving the Spurs a 22 second advantage on the shotclock and eliminating what would've been a must-foul situation to give the Lakers possibly 2 points at the line.
Bottom line is the Lakers should've been up at very least 96-91 and possibly even 98-91. So deal with it. Derek Fisher simply owns whatever place the Spurs call home, baby.
And please with the Joey Crawford thing. Kobe's been to the line 6 times in the entire series!!!I don't think it's the Spurs who should be ing about the referees.
Better luck next season because you crybaby Spurs fans swallow a dagger tonight.
you are a bobcat fan? get a life and go troll to a nbdl team fan forum.
How many times will they see like this before deciding it's time for Crawford to be put out to pasture?
Interesting that your sig has Derek Fisher crying, being that Fisher owns the Spurs fans. 0.4 had you dumbasses issuing a state of emergency and now a perfect defensive play on Brent Barry has you idiots up in arms again.
How brilliant was their play if the Spurs, who played so poorly, were down by only 2 points with seconds to play?
Either the Spurs played better than they're getting credit for, or the Lakers didn't play as well as everyone seems to think.
change your team, ass .
Spurs got 3 huge calls in the final minute that resulted in 3 points and a 22-second shot clock advantage. They were very lucky to even be that close. Doesn't matter though. Winning in that building by even a half-point is good enough. Back home for the closeout.
I never said Fisher's .4 shot shouldn't have counted. I never cried about the timekeepers or the Lakers getting a break or anything like that. The only thing I did say was that it was a lucky shot.
And explain to me exactly how Fisher owns the Spurs fans based on one lucky shot?
By virtue of giving the Spurs what many-many Spurs fans called the worst loss in Spurs history, and then backing it up with ownage of Brent Barry the other night, I hereby declare Derek Fisher owner of the San Antonio Spurs and their fans.
How that "strike" you?
What I don't understand is this: What is the point of having the league review plays, if when they decide a mistake was made they do nothing to remedy it? If a mistake WAS made - and the league is saying there was - shouldn't there be a replay of the final seconds? I mean, yikes, in a playoff game where the series is hanging on a brink, do they really want to go down having the game decided by a ref mistake? Let Barry take the shots, let the Lakers try and get off a final shot, and if the Spurs win, the series is tied. If the Lakers still win, so be it. On to Game 5. But at least the game would have been won honestly, by whoever the winner is. At this point, we've got a bigger * win than anything in NBA history.
As for all the other calls/noncalls fans are questioning - I saw plenty too, most in the Lakers favor. But I don't hear the league investigating any of those, so we have to defer to them since they're the final arbitrators.
similar case could be made for the Lakers, with the benefit of instant replay, barry would never have taken that shot, i blame the refs for nearly screwing it up for us.
The Spurs got 3 huge calls in the final minute alone that resulted in 3 free points and a 22-second shot-clock advantage. Not sure how you were counting, but it was by pure luck and bad refereeing that they even had a shot down 93-91. The Lakers are up 3-1 and 2 of their 3 wins have come with Duncan scoring 30/18 and 29/17. They're also up 3-1 despite the fact that Kobe Bryant has gotten to the line 6 (count them) times in the entire series.
That's an average of 1.75 times a game for a guy that's take 90 shots (with plenty drives to the bucket) in the series. Kobe's gotten 1 free throw for every 15 shot attempts he's taken. Here's a guy that averaged 9.5 free throws vs. the Nuggets (their defense sucks, I know) and 16 free throws a game vs. Utah (whoa). But he can only get to the line 1.75 times per game vs. the Spurs and Spurs fans have the nerve to bring up refereeing especially with the calls they got in their favor in the final minute of game 4? Be serious.
It's clear that the Lakers are simply the better team and the Spurs have been holding on by a thin thread the entire series. Unless the NBA calls for a sympathy game in which the Spurs are somehow granted 50 free throws on the Lakers court, this series is over.
