Yeah Dallas deserved to win that one, has to hurt a bit. They need to get this next one and get the split at OKC.hoops23;1156656 wrote:Not a good sign for Dallas, IMO.
OKC took control in the last few minutes. Went from being down 7 to up 1 in like 1 minute lol.
If you jump straight up and down and the defender jumps out of his way to flail into you, it should not be a foulsleeper;1156629 wrote:Don't leave your feet. Then you are in control and won't get the foul.
It has been called inconsistently all year. I've seen it go as no calls and then the announcer talk about the rule change...

I mean I understand your point, but I don't like editing basketball rules. What's next, raise the rim because players are getting taller?Hb31187;1156696 wrote:Rule of verticality,problem solved

The one thing I found amusing in the article is when Wilbon goes on a little tirade essentially ripping into LeBron indirectly:
"Let me declare freely I'm an unabashed fan of Derrick Rose. He comes from the neighborhood just north of where I come from on the South Side of Chicago. He's as tough as we all imagine we are, unrelentingly tough. He didn't need to befriend every good player in the league or link up with anybody who became a free agent. Rose hasn't found that he needs a nickname or carefully crafted image. He's a doer, a leader, charismatic in a way perhaps only Chicagoans understand -- without smiling and clowning and dancing and posing, kind of like a young Dick Butkus. He has represented Chicago in a way even Michael Jordan couldn't. Jordan is an adopted son, Rose a native son."
