Lin on Kobe's missed shot to win the game: "...I like game winners too... I would love to shoot some" :lol:

(See 2:22)

Poor guy, he's swallowing what he wants to say for what he's supposed to say.

EARLIER IN THE game he had a cut similar to that , that chandler swatted, he thought chandler was behind him. Its really not that stupid

Except he cut right behind Chandler and knew where Chandler was all the time. That was also a double dribble by the way.

Chandler's 7+ft athletic freak, he can make up ground, and as i said, earlier in the game Jennings made the same cut and got the ball pinned at the pack board. Also that is not a double dribble

It is a travel. Dude took two steps before he even thought about putting the ball down. The NBA official miss the most blatant travels.

if i am not mistaken as soon as he catches the ball, he can take 2 steps and either layup or put the ball down. As long as the ball hits the floor before his third step. i've seen this not called more than once. Really don't know if its actually legal.

You can't take steps and then dribble. If you catch the ball on the move and take a step then you must pass or shoot. If you're going to dribble then you must do so before taking any steps.

Section XIV-Traveling
"A player who receives the ball while he is progressing or upon completion of a dribble, may use a two-count rhythm in coming to a stop, passing or shooting the ball."
