sorry if this was already posted.. The Atlanta Hawks and Miami Heat must replay the final 51.9 seconds of their game last month because the NBA said the official scorer ruled incorrectly that Shaquille O'Neal fouled out. This will be the first time since 1982 the league has sent teams back on the court for a replay.
The Hawks won 117-111 at home in overtime Dec. 19. The NBA said Friday the replay will be held before the teams' next scheduled game -- March 8 in Atlanta. Play will start from the time after O'Neal's disputed sixth foul. The Hawks also were fined $50,000, with commissioner David Stern ruling the team was "grossly negligent" in failing to address the mistake.

The score crew in ATL is horrendous. Last year they missed TJ's made layup in the Raps-Hawks games there. This year if I remember correctly the score was getting updated very slowly during parts of the game when we played them again in ATL. If nobody has been fired yet from the scorekeeping staff they should clean house ASAP.
