A Nevada perspective
D-wil,
Having watched the Nevada-Gonzaga game several times, I can say that the first two fouls on Turiaf were good calls. The second one was a tough one as he was trying to draw a charge and didn't quite get position. It is a bad camera angle, but it appears that he sticks his left knee out and that is the contact. So it was a block. Now that being said, I think that his 3rd foul was a blown call. I also did not think that his 4th foul was a good one. Lastly, I think that there was only one other foul call that was not proper in the whole game. It was in the first half as Garry Hill-Thomas drove for a lay-up and Blake Stepp stepped in creating a block/charge situation. I thought Stepp got there in time and that it should have gone the other way. In the game it was a 3 point play. Oh, I should add that this does come from someone who is a fan of Nevada, but notice that all three calls that I criticize went against Gonzaga. I do believe that Turiaf would have made a significant impact on the game. Would it have been enough to change the outcome? I lean towards no. Nevada just shot too well that night. |
