Anyone else see the ending to the Lakers/MEM game? Grizz down 1, Lowry drives into the paint, right into Kwame's who was jumping forward as well, knocks Lowry backwards, shot is missed obviously, Warrick misses the desperation heave after, Lakers win. If that was Kobe going into Gasol's body or if they were in MEM that's a foul in the last possession. Complete BS.

lol i thought i was the only one watching this. it was a joke. if that is not a foul, i dont know what it is.

on side note this brown dude is among the worst players in the league. horrible hands. he must have the worst +/- rating. since he has come from injury, the other team always goes on a huge run.

grizz show how bad teams always find ways of losing games. reminds me of us not awhile ago. i was watchin them kings, they dominated the whole game, up by average of 6 with alot of chances to go up by double digits. even up by 4 with like 40 secs left, but yet they lose by 3.

bad teams always find ways of losing, incuding the refs costin them games.

Well, not all the karma was with the Lakers. Bynum may be out for a while.

yeah, even the Lakers announcers were saying they couldn't believe it wasn't a foul. I was cheering for the Lakers, and I was still a bit mad after that play :lol:

that was a horrible no -call.

Looks like Bynum might be out for the year though--that loked bad. Poor guy was really coming into his own too

Credit where it's due: the lakers announcers have usually struck me as second only to Boston in terms of abject homers, but even they were going on and on about the refs deciding the game with the blatant no-call.

It was as ridiculous a call as you'll ever see. If you haven't watched it, do so. It was wide open, cleared out with the game on the line, and he was literally sent to the floor AND smacked on his arm with no one in the way to account for an inability to see it or anything.

And no call, Lakers win, at home. Just ridiculous.

speculation on my part as theres nothing official. It just looked really bad and he had to be carried off the court on one leg...

Lakers paid them via the Laker Girls doing their thing(s)...

David Stern says the refs are not gambling on games anymore......HA!

These referees get payed so much money for an easy job, yet they miss so many easily calls. Due to gambling or they are just blind...

How come Gay keeps getting 18-20 shots per game on that team, even when he's 5-19 on the night?

I mean they got some great shooters in Miller/Navarro, yet Gay's the one jacking like there is no tomorrow?

Well, he's shooting 47%, which is very good for a wing player....so, shot selection doesn't seem to be a very big issue for him.

Certainly was today. He gives up a couple of those shots to Miller or Navarro or Gasol, and I don't think the blown call would even be an issue.

Fair enough, I only watchedd the last 2 minutes of the game, so I have no idea what types of shots he was taking.

But, your post made it sound like you think he is getting way too many shots per game, but if he's shooting 47%, I don't think that's an issue. I could have misinterpreted your post tho.
