    If you look closely, the center of the defender’s feet moved forward 1.5 inches, insufficient evidence yo overturn đŸ€“

    I’m still unnecessarily mad about this. This is a no call in my book

    Nba refs are the worst of the 4 Major Sports, bite me.

    Watch his feet – TBJ literally lands further back than where he started.

  5. In what world is that a foul? If you call that basically every possession when a player shoots should be a foul.

    In all honesty, if this a foul on TBJ then you can’t play real defense in the NBA.

    He goes straight up and Rozier literally jumps into him.

    The ref who announced the challenge ruling was shaking worse than a tremor: he knew he was spewing pure bullshit

    Unreal. Troys left foot actually lands farther back than it initially was at the jump. Meanwhile Terry goes to another area code

    Brown is himself further from the 3 point line at the end of the shot that he was at the start. He literally moved back slightly from the shooter, but the shooter gets to kick his feet out???

    That’s a very odd call.

    Let’s start doing this if that’s how the league is going to call it.

    It’s cause the hornets were +5.5 underdogs and they were down 6 at the time

    How much yall think the refs had on Minnesota losing tonight??

  12. JustWinBabys

    Kat used to get called for kick outs all the time

    This is why the NBA will never grow their fanbase outside of people who thoroughly love basketball. If there was another league that didn’t pull this BS I’d dump the NBA immediately.

  14. I don’t think he could just more straight up and down if he tried

    If we had lost the game, we would have deserved an apology. Nevertheless, I think we still deserve at least an explanation even though we won.

  16. I’m interested to see what the 2 min report will say on this one. It’d be a bad look to get it wrong even after a review, but I don’t see how that call stood. The contact at the top is legal and the contact down low is initiated by the kick out and TBJ went backwards if anything.

  17. Can’t wait to see if they call it out in the two-minute report or not.

    TBJ couldn’t have defended that more cleanly. The CHA announcers were talking about that being Rozier’s natural shooting motion and he should be allowed to kick his legs out like that? Why does a defender have to accommodate an idiosyncratic shooting form like that? Seems like it makes more sense to make the unorthodox shot the problem than a fundamentally solid defensive play.

  19. Nothing like doubling down on a bad call
embarrassing for the zebras

    My question as someone who doesn’t watch basketball as much as big basketball fans is
 how do you defend that? He jumped straight up? The best way to NOT get a foul there is to not defend then?

    My wife asked me “how come they didn’t overturn that?” I said “because the refs made a mistake calling it in the first place and now they don’t want to overturn it and be seen as making the game-deciding call.”

    This was either not a 3 or not a foul. Both can’t be true.
