Screw Job of the Year

second of all, the side view slowed down, clearly shows the ball out of his hand while there was still 0.1 seconds on the clock.

Part of the problem may be if you are looking at the same thing I am is the unofficial clock shows 0.1 seconds but the actual clock shows 0.0. That clock looks to be off by 0.2 seconds. It is very close either way.

You understand basketball.

using the "real" clock.......not the one on the screen......the shot was off before the red light lit.

""Get rid of instant replay," Boyle told ESPN.com by phone from Tucson. "In basketball, football, human error is part of our game. If human error is part of the game, let the officials call the game. Players, coaches and officials will make mistakes. It's part of the game."

Smart man. He is not whining.

[pawball]

No, but he is wrong. And he, and you, should stop whinning.

Colorado was screwed plain and simple. I really don't see how the refs could have seen "indisbutable" evidence that the call made on the court should be overturned.

There really needs to be an investigation and all 3 refs should receive some kind of punishment. This really does NOT need to ever happen again.

It reminded me of the replacement refs during the NFL.

No screw job at all. The team on defense should have either scored another basket earlier or denied the team from getting the three off.

The losing team had 40 minutes to win the game.

A team does not lose or win a game on one possession.

I guess playing to the whistle doesn't mean anything to you.

You might have way too much starch in your collar.
