By your definition, no one in the entire court could possibly criticize that call -- because they are not officials. Nonsense -- go look at the video of the game - then recant your nonsense.

The ball being above the rim does not equate to goaltending.

And so what if the official missed one goal-tending call, that means that official is showing a pattern of ineptitude?

Goaltending in almost all cases is a judgement call. It's really easy to sit at home with TIVO and ref a perfect game.

How about fire all those soccer officials who continually get suckered by the flopping that soccer players do?
