I'll bet that maybe 1 in 100 fans knows that the NBA travel rule is very, very different (not how it's called, how it's actually written) than the NCAA or NFHS rules.
Anyway, this comes from Bill Simmons' column at http://espn.go.com/page2/s/simmons/020606.html

Why? Why even post this crap? What NBA rule states that a basket can't be counted if it comes a full second after the foul? Every time the crowd yells "Bull$hit!" the officials definitely blew the call? Sad day! Dead wrong? Too bad he's not just dead.
BTW, Dick Bavetta worked the game last night. I guess he forgot the Nets were supposed to win.
