In last night's game there was a sequence where there was a
"controversial" GT call followed immediately by another
"controversial" GT non-call. I thought both were close
and I was just a tad surprised at the no-call, but upon
replay I thought they got it right. Any basketball
related, non-conspiracy theorist
comments? BTW, I
thought the offensive BI call on the Nets (Martin?) was
beautiful. The whistle came immediately, no 1/2 second
delay as in "hey! I think I got something here...". Of
course that's why they get the big bucks (and the offender
made it easy by pulling down on the rim).

Well, I didn't see the play, but I'm sure that you can tell whether the calls were right or not based on the crowd response.

Maybe we should change basketball into a reality show-type game. On a close block/charge, NBA/NCAA could take a media timeout, and have the fans vote on what the call would be. I'm sure they wouldn't be biased toward the home team or anything.
