Look at Fisher's left hand. I think he dribbled the ball, with no problems whatsoever.Hilarious.
But the Laker fans will say 'he's just hating'.
(especially the last :26 sec in OT when they inbound the ball to Fisher... who travels 5 steps... before dribbling EVEN ONCE)
PROOF: Laker fans will ignore the 8:40 mark...
(before this footage is removed from YouTube, of course)
[flash]http://www.youtube.com/v/O4aFb8HWiSc&hl=en&fs=1&[/flash]
The refs missed this call.
While Laker fans will deny it with:
- "It never happened." or
- "The refs miss plenty of calls. Stop bitching."
Guaranteed.

Dude are you fucking kidding me do you know how many bullshit calls went against the lakers yesterday
Also you can clearly see on that video fisher took one dripple then 2 steps and released the ball to odom how is that traveling?

- He caught the ball (Took 2 steps after catching it: right, left : watch his feet)
- Pivot turn + fake pass (1 step : picked up his right foot, stepped foward and pivoted on his RIGHT foot, lifted his left foot)
- Then shuffles his feet (2 MORE stutter steps)
- Then 1 dribble
(with his left hand)- And made a quick pass to Odom off-the-dribble.
That's the play.
But it happens quickly.
They just missed it. Or chose not to call it.
Don't be mad at someone for pointing it out.
That was AFTER 5 steps had been taken.
This angle is far away, but seems to be the only TV angle available. (for now)
C'mon, the LA crowd is not going to yell 'traveling'.

how old are you? you need glasses? He grabs the ball, turns around, dribbles and takes a couple steps. You could call the shuffle if you wanted to call the game really tight, but the home team just doesn't get that call, not when it's so close. You should know better than to quote Bill Simmons.

Where are you seeing this?
He caught the ball, turned around, dribbled once took a couple shuffled steps. and passed.
Now he could have been called for traveling, but considering the game refs wouldn't call a travel on something so borderline.
Also, it's VERY easy to point it out when you are sitting at home playing it over in slow motion on your dvr, or going over it on youtube.
But when you're reffing the game live? lol.
I've played college ball.
Plus I've worked for the NBA.
So I think I know what I'm talking about. (But you may disagree.
)And Fisher doesn't dribble until he stutter-steps.
However you are absolutely correct: Refs will NOT call that in a close / heated NBA game.
Bill Simmons just pointed it out.
And I posted the vid. That's all.
WOW. First off you can hear the thump when fisher dribbles the ball. Need more proof that is was the ball making the thump? Listen to the clip as Lamar dribbles.
The refs GAVE the magic good chances at the end of regulation. Heres that last play for the lakers during regulation. . . .
Remember Kobe going up?
[FLASH]http://www.youtube.com/watch/v/QGSQhzhxY4s[/FLASH]
Who hit his left arm right there, and what is that called?
Don't forget when the ref called the ball off of Kobe's leg when it was deflected out by Orlando.

There is only ONE thump heard.
Because Fisher dribbled as he 'stutter stepped'.
But again.. refs usually won't call that at the point in such a heated match-up.

Watch the clip again.
Lewis hit Kobe's left hand.
Not his forearm.
So the 'no-call' is correct.
Explaining the NBA’s Most Misunderstood Rules
Incidental Contact: The mere fact that contact occurs does not mean a foul has been committed. Players are allowed to contact other players when reaching for a loose ball, or when performing normal offensive and defensive movements. The hand is considered “ part of the ball” when it is in contact with the ball and contact with a players hand when it is in contact with the ball is not a foul.
I'm done here.

Stop. Just....stop. According to Bill Simmons it was only the Magic who got screwed on calls/missed calls. Those two things wouldn't have meant shit. [/sarcasm]WOW.

Then you have people talking about the Pau "goaltend", but I don't see those same people complaining about the actual goaltend by Dwight Howard.
and I guess that makes your biased ass a MF expert. GTFOH with that bullshit man and stop hatin'. If Fisher traveled, dont you think the Magic bench and players would have gone apeshit?I've played college ball.

somebody photoshop '09 on this bitch
I was not directly in front of my TV @ that very moment, went to grab a brew, I think...
so i missed the 'live action' (only heard the audio), but saw the replay.
And YES Howard DID goaltend.
Horrible 'non call'.
That was some BS.
I totally agree.
If the Lakers lost by 1 point... this would have been THE play 'they got robbed' in my book.
Check my response above.
That's not hating.
But you are entitled to your opinion.
And btw, I don't think MOST people caught on.
It just happened too quick, imo.
(At the Laker end of the court)

Oh, shut the fuck up!
You people force us to be on the defensive about LA because your hate for them is relentless. Give us an opportunity to admit their flaws by seeing the game from more than one perspective( The perspective of motherfuckers who want nothing more than for LA to lose, and for Kobe to fail to win a ring as the first option on his team).
I have a friend in VA who have friends that call her to clown her about the Lakers losing, and they don't even watch BASKETBALL like that!!! At this point, YOU have your head in the sand if you can't see the rampant hate for Kobe Bryant and the Lakers. If they lose, you guys zero in on every bad call that favored the Lakers, as if the Lakers don't have to play above it as well...
It's always the other team underplaying, or the refs being in the Lakers pocket, and never what the Lakers did to win. Some of you people are fucking disgusting when it comes to this shit, and I feel ridiculous even feeding into the shit you all spew, because it's only fucking basketball!!!!!
YES the refs made some bad calls in favor of LA! But can anyone argue the ref's have been consistent in ANY series in the playoffs??? If you be aggressive, you'll get calls that go your way, because the refs are on some bullshit a lot of times. No one said shit when Dwight Howard blocked Pau's shot through the rim, because they want LA to lose at any cost.
I see you pride yourself on being this great basketball mind, but you can't be great until you can see more than one perspective. Being articulate in your criticism's regarding the Lakers only make you an articulate hater. That's the worst kind, because you clearly have the capacity to see deeper into the game, and you choose to only see it from one side.
Co-sign, i've said it many times before that i'd rather hear a confirmed Laker/Kobe hater say "FUCK LA AND KOBE" rather than these undercovers like Cranrab and this new cat here talking that "one-sided" bit of knowledge they claim to have
Now Orlando is going to be home tonight. They'll get the benefit on close calls.of COURSE refs miss calls. funny how all the calls they missed that would've gone AGAINST the magic, u don't have sheit to say about....fuk outta here. all that conspiracy sheit you poppin just makes you look like a big azzed baby....cryin cause your team ain't winnin. lakers are just the better team....now go choke on that
I will be waiting for grownazz to complain about those calls that LA should get, along with video and all.
C/S. Hopefully that will be 2-nite !!!!
I agreed with the 'missed goaltend' call on D. Howard.
That was some PURE bullshit.
Btw, here were my comments after Game 1 (in this very same thread
)If you read NUMBER 3 below, in particular... you may still think "I'm hating on LA". But whatever
Co-sign the red.
I kept thinking the EXACT same thing while watching this game.
And 3 things really stood out to me...
1. Poor Chemistry.
J. Nelson was NOT the solution in this game. At first he did ok, but I thought they gave him way too much playing time, because Orlando was playing much better without him overall - in every other series, imo.
Not convinced that he's that ONE 'magic bullet', or unstoppable scorer, or point guard 'leader' that this Magic team simply cannot play well without. (like a Chauncey Billups, Chris Paul, or Deron Williams)
So I thought Van Gundy should have limited his minutes considerably.
Just get him more involved slowly - game by game.
2. Piss Poor Shooting.
They live & die by the '3' and they couldn't hit any outside shots tonight.
I figured they would get SUPER COLD at some point in the finals, just didn't expect it to be Game 1...
Because they were hitting EVERYTHING against Cleveland.
That was ridiculous.
3. Kobe Torched 'Em.
Gotta give credit where credit is due. Kobe did his thing.
Hung 40 on 'em and almost got a triple-double.

Man. I just had to make a reply in another thread like this. If you say anything critical about Kobe.. you are a "hater"? I've criticized Coach Brown, Lebron James, Dwight Howard, etc throughout these playoffs and have not been called a Howard hater or James Hater.. but the minute you say something critical about Kobe, his stans throws hissy-fits about you being a hater as if Kobe is beyond reproach.

Uhhhh you basically proved his point with those first 2 and on #3 if you put this
after your comment it kinda makes it seem like you weren't really giving that person props
Uhhhh you basically proved his point with those first 2 and on #3 if you put this
Those 3 factors decided that WHOLE game. (in my eyes)
So how was I NOT really giving any props?
(The eye roll was because I thought his performance was "unbelievable". Not trying to clown.
)But I guess I should have started with #3 instead, huh?
Just kidding.
man, i laughs at these mutha fukas. they are in their homes just roasting like fuk.....for every high light kobe drops on um, it's like a prick of needle on the side of there arm.....the hate grows from
to and then finally to 
and THAT'S when they log onto bgol, just frothing at the mouth and unable to get a good nights sleepi be like
and just tell um to let that hate burn....let it burn sloooooowwwww

Come on man seriously
Come on man seriously
Why would i mention Kobe TORCHING them...
And then try to clown him? (with a silly icon)
That just doesn't make sense to me.
Anyways, Kobe did his thing. Seriously.
Meh, I guess I should have left the icon off
so it wouldn't be misinterpreted. My Bad.

The funniest part is the leader of that group CRANRAB ha been basically M.I.A. since the Lakers ended Denvers season, talking about he chillin at the game with Hall Of Fame centers that agree with him The game is in Orlando tonight so i wonder is he'll be in here or did he get a ticket to Orlando to go on the roadMagic Thread
i knew somebody would say that.
p: if you watch some of those plays, the fakers transitioned into zone, so it wasn't lamar odom's responsibility to stay with rashard lewis.
d: lamar odom didn't miss from the field in Q2, Q3 or Q4

no hand strength. people talk about him being a physical specimen, but nobody ever looks at how poorly he grips the pill.
2 hands on the ball and he gets it dislodged by derek fisher and trevor ariza? single coverage in the post and getting it poked out by pau gasol?
seriously....wtf is with fucking dwight howards hands?!?!?! every fucking time he gets the fucking ball in the post he loses the god damn ball!!

c, you have no leg to stand on in this instance.
lamar odom is open in the left corner, trevor ariza is open on the right wing.
just admit that tobe made the worst possible choice and keep it moving.
BTW, who did courtney lee beat on the inbounds pass for the lob to end regulation?
