Officials usually let things go if it doesn't effect the shot at the end of games. That is not a surprise but was not the case last night . The idea that officials wouldn't call that is ridiculous. If that was the case then there would be no last second shots in the NBA. You would just hit everyone arms late in games and take the win. To me that was one of the worst blown non calls I've ever seen late in games. You can't compare that to a CJ call. Which buy the way the Utah commentators actually thought was a good call after watching the replay a few times. They were pretty much speachless that CJ got away with that foul though. I was also. It wasn't like he just gave him a tap on the arm.

To me this was all about an official choking late in the game. It was an emotional game. He hesitated to make the call against the home team. With a second left you hesitate the game is over before you know it. Really I wouldn't feel to bad for OKC if this was December. Have plenty of time to make it up. Really if that call is made we might be talking about OKC with a real shot at being the number 2 seed

My question to Thunder fans is:

Does this admission by the NBA make you guys feel better or just angrier?

I say the game should be "veto'-ed so that Durant gets to shoot his 3 free throws :)
Life may not be the party we hoped for but while we are here we might as well dance!

I saw the highlights of this game last night on SportsCenter without any knowledge at the time of what happened and when I saw the replay of Durant going up with that three-point shot, my instincts were expecting a foul call and was surprised it wasn't called.

When ESPN did the replay again to show the contact I was sort of expected to show it being clean, but then saw that it was a clear foul, just like I thought it was when I first saw it.

As a Blazer fan, I wanted to see the Thunder lose to help with our playoff seed position, but I do hate the fact the Thunder lost that way. It's not right. It's one of those things that I feel should have been made right and I believe that should be replayed with the foul called and Durant shooting three foul shots.

Anyway, good luck to you guys, even though I'm hoping the Blazers get a better seed than you guys. :D
