Ina ll honsety every touch is a foul. Thats not stupid its just that the refereeing is stupid. They do not allow any physical contact at all.

Rytas is playing horrific defence, every shot is wide open...

The refs are a joke. Fouls on every play.

The British commentators are talking about how "the giant #17 on the bench is a huge loss" to Rytas.

all the fouls were legit, 3d foul was really stupid, it's called a lose ball foul, refs call it everytime

ATLTimekeeper · Post #328 » by **ATLTimekeeper** » Sat Apr 14, 2012 12:12 pm

Refs don't call it everytime. 3 touch fouls is usually just discretion or bias. It's unfortunate and Val should have played wiser, but it could have gone either way.

See, now the flopping is getting out of hand.

a player tries to go for offensive board, does not get it and tries to slap the ball from rebounders hands right away

refs call it 99.99% of the time

C'mon, finish the half strong and re-group.

Hi there, such a thing as loose ball foul rule doesn't even exist in international basketball rule book. It was a weird call to say the least.

They are calling every foul against Valencia. How many free throws in this game?

Its international basketball not NBA. Such thing as losse ball foul doesnt exist.

Babrauskas is such an awesome player. Misses almost every shot he takes.

Yeah, he is pretty bad. Also pretty bad is this game and ref work in particular. I'm not saying they are biased, I'm saying the way they are calling touches is more handy to Spanish side.

I wouldn't say every foul. Valencia were playing so ultra aggressive early that they were challenging the refs to call every foul and they didn't. The ref's have been calling the majority of fouls but had to let a few slide to have any flow to the game. Rytas finally caught on as the half went on and picked up their aggressiveness to match Valencia and started to get away with a few as well.

it's an automatic foul, been playing amateur ball and getting this called everytime, seen pro players getting called for this everytime. If you don't get the offensive board, go back on defence, do not try to slap the ball from the rebounder :cry:

No its not automatic. Not in international basketball at least thats why those calls look weird. For Rytas unluck is that their most important player got on the receiving end and wasnt able to get into the game.

I would risk if I were djikic and start Jonas again though. Right now Rytas evened up the game flow but they are nowhere close on breaking the tide in their favour.
