I know how you guys feel.. Barry deserved those free throws, and I think they should have eventually won the game!


But in my opinion, league is totally fixed. Theyll admit that it was a bad call, but wont replay the MOST CRucial part of the game?

Think about it.. Think HOW MUCH Marketing Dollars would be LOST if there were no LA VS BOS Finals? I think once the Lakers stole Gasol, the commissioners office had their mind set as to what Finals they would LIKE to see..

Whenever a team wins a title, rest assured there will be plenty of leaches trying to discredit it. This is a fact of life as a sports fan. Spurs fans have dealt with it since '99. Laker fans would no doubt be familiar with it as well.

It's called jealousy, plain and simple.

if they replayed every bad call, we would never get the season finished
the refs can't call a perfect game, just like the players can't play a perfect game

If I'm looking at the play-by-play and replay correctly then the Foul doesn't even matter:

It was not in the act of shooting, Barry dribbles to his right after contact.

Lakers had a foul to give after only committing 4 in the 4th Qtr none in the final 2 minutes
(10:15 foul on Gasol; 5:35 foul on Turiaf; 4:53 foul on Radmanovic; 4:15 foul on Odom).


Ball out of bounds, side court, less than 1 second left.


Damn man... I guess everyone (including myself) missed that.

Good call...

Regardless of everything that happened, the better team won that game.

Em, isn't the team in the penalty once they commit 4 personal fouls? So FTs are given when the 5th PF occurs...
