    I’m so glad that we get to talk about this one again.

    Scott Foster in the replay center BTW

  2. Sharkoon92

    I almost fainted in that moment.. Just imagine if Miami won the game because of it..

  3. mortaldance

    Scott “the extender” foster would be proud

  4. MrGrieves-

    Gotta love when the refs’ plan fails.

    Congratulations Nuggets.

  5. Vegetable_Key_6576

    Wow, imagine if this game comes down to 2 points, we will be talking about this play for weeks

    So whenever you go up for a jump shot and want to shoot free throws also just kick a nearby defender in the balls or am I missing something.

    The whole finals was some serious Slippin’ Jimmy shit

  8. Whofreak

    Hope his toes are okay after kicking AG’s brass balls

  9. Lazarus704

    I did not get this at all when I saw it and all the replays… Jimmy was clearly sticking out his leg to foul bait and they checked the replay and still didn’t make the correct call

    Foul on Gordon (kicked in dick).

  11. -ElBandito-

    Ok but legit though, is this what the refs are told to do? To make the series more “exciting” (it does the complete opposite)? If I’m the commissioner I’d be legitimately firing someone over this call in the NBA FINALS

  12. Earl-Thomas-a-Raven

    Swear to god this is one of the worst calls I’ve seen in my life

  13. pueblogreenchile

    This was like the Last Ride of the Ref-hirrim

    Didn’t work though.

    Did the league ever explain this one? It almost ended up as one of the more infamous displays of poor officiating of all time.

    I was hoping to see this near the top. The league needs to answer for this. We shouldn’t let this one go.

    What an absolutely blatant attempt at giving Miami hope. Watching this live was infuriating. The W is the only thing that made this bearable. Let’s go Nuggets!

  17. DoomdUser

    This is one of the biggest bullshit calls in the history of the game.

  18. PicaroKaguya

    man kicked a dude in the balls and didnt get a technical.

  19. ibeauch009

    refs need to be looked at heavily this off-season

  20. techno-wizardry

    I’m putting my tin foil hat on and calling that the game was actually trying to be rigged. Nobody wants a gentleman’s sweep finals except Nuggets fans, the NBA stands to gain more with a longer series. This wasn’t the only call and moment that was just fucking fishy, the Heat got every ounce of help you could ask for.

  21. SeekerSpock32

    Thank goodness the Nuggets won or this would’ve had the league burned down.

  22. Complexity777

    One of the worst calls I’ve seen and the fact they replayed it and didn’t change call is amazing.

    Butler was clearly foul baiting too, he knew that shot had almost 0 chance of going in.

  23. xNED37x

    The officiating was terrible in the finals and this was the second worst call made. The missed goal tending call in game 2 was the worst because that actually impacted the outcome of the game. If that was called, the Nuggets are down 1 at the end and Murray isn’t taking a 3 to try and tie it up.

    Overall though, I’m just glad that the best team this year won the championship.

  24. schooli00

    76ers FO could have had an all time foul merchant team. Imagine Embiid, Harden, and Jimothy. 60% of all their points would come from free throws.

  25. General_Industry4619

    They legitimately tried to fix the game and it seems like nobody really cares.

  26. SkipsPittsnogle

    One of the worst calls I’ve seen in 25 years of watching the league. Trying to bail Miami out with under 4 minutes to go.

  27. OGStrong

    I’m still fucking outraged about this bullshit call and I’m neutral. NBA will always have an integrity problem with shit like this.
