I WANT OVERTIME! If anything, this is inconclusive and earlier call stands.

Space between his shoe and the line is in shadow, but you can see floor without question. Razor thin margin, but that shot is conclusive to me.

It was called a 2.
There's probably a sliver of air under there but that image is going to be called a 2 (just about) every time. Not mad. Bad break!

Avery wears white shoes here and we get the three call. His black ones blended in with the line.

That should be reviewed man, come on they review shots like that all the damn time. Why not this one? Getting screwed again by the refs. That was a 3.

They reviewed it. Take off the green glasses and pretend that's Harden's foot. How many points are you giving the guy?

^ thats odd, avery started the game in white shoes.

This **** game is rigged.

They did? My bad i was multi tasking at the time he took that shot, but regardless i see space between AB's shoe and the 3 point line. I don't wear green glasses, yuck.#homecookingcalls

Clearly that's not his shoe touching the line, unless sneaker companies are designing the soles with bumpy edges. However, do you really think Seacaucus is going to take the time to pencil in the real line of his shoe. Seems like they saw the black on black and just phoned it in quickly as nothing to overturn. Like I said, he wears white sneakers, we get the call.

Post game note for the team: when we play in an arena with a black 3 point line, wear white sneakers. When we play in one with a white stripe, wear black ones or non-white.

I'm sure in the minority but I am encouraged by this loss. Come at me lol.

EDIT:
At least I'm not alone.

The other thing -- the next couple of frames, the tip of that left shoe went downwards, further 'digging in' to the line (as it disappeared behind whoever's calf that is). This Zapruder shot is the least-damning still possible pulled out of the video.

Damn, dropping knowledge like jet fighters dropping bombs.

Brad's still the new kid in town; Belichek would already have this down. (and have Brian Doo run out and erase the outermost inch of the three point line on our side at halftime) [edit: I say this as a Pats fan still pissed about we-suck-at-running-our-league-gate]

[Shak_Celts]

let's just say they couldn't call it and let the call stand. how in the hell does the ref call that a 2? I have seen much worse and over the line called a 3. no way you call that a 2 live! fak outta here!!!

[Ben-N1ce]

I dunno. I hope they play this hard every game and I can fully enjoy the season. Nothing they can do about the loss now but the effort was there.

[Bar Fight]

Eh...I'm not encouraged by the fact that we lose every single time we play a great team. Get one quality victory and maybe then I'll be impressed.

[SichtingLives]

theres no irony in "advancing" to a replay system that relies on shady camerawork and 1985 pixellation to make calls.

End of quarter/half execution is becoming a real problem. Gave up a 22-8 run at the end of the 2nd and a 13-6 at the end of the 4th. The IT and D lineup just isn't getting it done
