Except, of course, when you post a picture of Oden and want all of us to condemn the officials for not calling a holding foul his opponent.

There's hope for ESPN

You can argue that Green traveled, if you'd like, although one person I know who has officiated e-mailed me Friday night and said a player is allowed to "alight" on his non-pivot foot to shoot or pass. There could be a debate over whether his right foot slipped a little, causing a violation, but in stepping through the Commodores' double-team, Green executed a textbook move to complete the play. Green says he didn't travel. If anything, he said, "I probably got pushed and they didn't call it."

Except for the fact that is not what I "asked".

Really? We all must have just read this comment wrongly. Gee, our bad.

I repeat the question,,,,if you are going to call an intentional foul based on pictures, then explain how this one was missed?
