Did anyone see the 3 second call on Garnett in the 3rd period tonight? Boston inbounds the ball after a Laker basket, Rondo dribble up the floor. At the 20 second mark on the shot clock, "Tweet," 3 seconds.
The call was correct. Does anyone know why?

Was that the play where Mike Breen was saying the ball was two seconds in the backcourt? I have to give credit for the play-by-play guy actually knowing the rule.
I guess there's no "benefit of the doubt" if you're backing out of the lane on the three-count, at least not that time. |

I really didn't mind it that much, as I thought it was a better call than calling a foul on Garnett for displacing Gasol as violently as he did...but I'm not sure that makes the call "correct". |

(I checked the NBA rules and their 3-second call does match the NCAA/NFHS rule of only applying when the ball is in team control in the frontcourt.)

The 24 second clock wasn't started until AFTER Rondo crossed the division line. We ran it back and watched it. I guess we aren't the only ones with slow clock operators. And I agree. I told my two sons he was in there the entire 4 seconds but he got the call instead of the foul that coulda/woulda/shoulda been called.

Coach Rivers and Coach Jackson -- tell your players to STOP FOULING!!!!!! It makes for a much better game.
It is clearly a sign of bad coaching if you're best players continue to foul the other team so often they have to sit down and not play! |

It's the NBE, Jeff. The players do NOT have to adjust to the officials. The officials are supposed to adjust to the players. I think that's written somewhere in the players' bargaining agreement with the league. From the whining that goes on during just about every call, it almost has to be. NBE officials get their direction as to how the league wants their games called from head office. Every freaking call is monitored and graded. But when the officials do call the games the way they're directed to, everybody blames the officials instead of the league. Go figure. |

I gotta agree with Jurassic on this one. Jeff, your statement could be said to any local JV coach and make sense, but in the NBA, sadly, your words will fall on deaf ears.

I think jeffpea's point is that players keep whining about being in foul trouble. Rivers and Jackson need to stop empowering that and tell them, to shut up and play. I agree.

With Sincere Thanks ...
Thank you very much. I really wish that the Forum never heard of the "stoopid blue font". I'm sure that many would agree with me. Maybe we should have a poll?
