Hey, it was only one extra step. Some people would say that's progress.

The thing is that it would've been a great move if he'd just shot it before the pivot came back down. It was a really nice "up and under" move, but he put the pivot back down.

Can't be too hard a code. Only took you 28 minutes to crack it.

I know. I know.

That would have been funnier if it didn't take you 34 minutes to come up with it.

Guys - this entire thread is predicated on the misconception that the NBA has a traveling rule.

I was pretty sure they did. Weren't several referees charged by the IRS for breaking the NBA's travel rules?

I'm pretty sure there is one, because Garnett just got called for it in the first 2 minutes of Game 2 tonight.

No, it was a "not mugging enough for the camera" violation.

Nope. Official signaled traveling after Garnett actually did travel.

Must've been a false start violation. The signals are the same you know.
