only that dwayne wade play off the clipper player where the ball went to the heat.

the replay showed battier's foul on griffin. can an official call that foul on a replay when they were looking for something else?

Replay is only used for possession and shot/game clock judgments. There has been talk that the NBA should add challenges like there are in the NFL, but that currently isn't the case. Even in the NFL, if a spot is challenged, the refs can't make a call on something else that happened during the play.

It's funny because a guy can literally punch someone in the face, and the refs can't do a thing. Stupid rule.

I'm pretty sure if a punch was thrown to the face it would be caught...
