southsider2k5 Posted November 11, 2009 Author Share Posted November 11, 2009 That is as close as I have ever seen. I couldn't honestly decide if it was out or not. It was impossible from the shots they showed on TV. I can't see how they saw something to overrule. That call had to stay whatever they called it as far as I am concerned.

WHarris1 Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Nov 10, 2009 -> 09:35 PM) Honestly, could you call a timeout, catch, and shoot in 0.6 seconds? I couldn't. Well a timeout is instantly called when he gains possession of the rebound, and technically you can catch and shoot in .3, so why not?

ChWRoCk2 Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 This is why instant replay can ruin sports. How can you overturn that call and legitimately say the ball didn't leave his fingertips? Joke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Officiating late in the game sucked dick overall. Anthony tripped Deng with the ref watching right on the side, then Carmelo tried to bulls*** the refs by helping Deng up. IMO, an act like that is almost worse than hacking a guy hard intentionally. Plus, Billups got fouled by Noah, shoulda been called. If anything, it might have helped the Bulls.

If that was Kobe, it would have been good no matter what. Nobody would believe that Brad Miller can make such a shot. Honestly, if the NBA was corrupt like that, the commissioner's office would have called the refs and told them to keep the damn play. That's one of the plays of the year if it stayed.

Balta1701 Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Think this one sums it up for me. Jeremy (Roundball Mining Co./TrueHoop Network): Sorry I think I blacked out there for a while. On one hand I agree with JD, if it is so close you have to look at it for five minutes I do not think you have the evidence to overturn it. On the other hand, I honestly do not think it is possible to have all of that happen in an honest to goodness 0.6 seconds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHarris1 Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 You can catch and f***ing shoot in .3 seconds, he wasted no time in getting it off. f***ing horses***, please NBA refund all the people who paid top dollar to witness that garbage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxAce Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 (edited) What an awful call on the "visual evidence" to overturn that one, but that was a very exciting game. Though I must say great defense on Billips Kirk... NOT! The thing that annoys me the most about that call, is usually home teams always get that kind of call no matter what.

NOT! yeah one thing you can take away from this is that the Bulls have hung tough against some pretty stiff competition early this year and Denver was no exception.

The Gooch Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 QUOTE (GO CHI SOX! @ Nov 10, 2009 -> 10:06 PM) I would rather not have instant replay anymore in any sport. I agree. Officiating is always going to be questionable to bad on most occasions, apparently even with the assistance of technology. There is nothing worse then having referees watching video for minutes at a time delaying games and then still getting the call wrong. And "Beyond a reasonable doubt" obviously doesn't mean anything when overturning call anymore in any sport with instant replay. I hope MLB at least stays strong and sticks to just home run calls. I dread the day that instant replay ruins my favorite sport Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DBAHO Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Tough break for the Bulls tonight, I wonder if it was more a superstar player than Brad Miller if they would have gotten the call then. God knows if it was LeBron, there'd probably be a whole ESPN Sportscenter newshour dedicated to it or something. We get VC back, and take on the Cavs tomorrow night. We're 6-2, but are probably playing at about 50-60% right now, a lot of improvement to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
