I cannot argue with this sort of logic.

The game is flowing and both teams are playing. There are times you just have to hold your whistle. The NBA wants highlights!!!!

Then let em play without refs! Heck, they don't call most of the violations or fouls anyhow.....

another reason could be that Delaney is waiting for the Lead to make the call. He probably saw the travel, but holding his whistle because the play is well into L's primary. The L is trained to look upper body and missed the travel. Basket went in... too late to kill the play. Play ON!

Yep, the L will usually not be focussed on travels in this sitch.

Which is why the C/T are and should have taken this right away. I doubt that either was surprised by this travel btw, this is just not a travel that is usually called in this league.

Bingo!

Agreed. The NBE doesn't have refs anymore; they have traffic cops. Keep 'er moving and ignore the little details, like rules.

The NBE....Faaaaaantaaaastic......and no longer bearing any kinda resemblance to basketball.

Jmo...and a heckuva lot of others too, Mr. Stern.

On that particular player....at any time....ever...

Rookies drafted lower than #10 should beware though.
