It seemed the buzzer started when the shooter's arms were going back before he pushed he ball forward....not really as close as it seems.

No basket. TOUGH CALL. I bet none of us would have been surprised had he counted it.

Did the trail fall into a hole in the back court?

No basket. Didn't even have to replay it to see/hear that.

Good, decisive call by the C.

I have no problem at all with the announcers. They were entertaining and not obnoxious.

He's standing in the BACKCOURT. As good a job as the C did here....

And I agree -- it's easy when you watch it over and over or stop it, but real-time that's a nutcutter and he nailed it.

Looking at player, and listening for the buzzer, I saw the ball out of hand before the buzzer sounded.

When I played it several times today, and the first time tonight, I played it in real time, it looked like the player beat the buzzer. In subesequent real-time plays, his shot is after the buzzer. I guess the buffering on my machine made it look different.

Plus one of the announcers is talking as the buzzer begins to sound. That makes hearing it a bit difficult, even in the slower speed playback.

There it is. Good thing we don't have to worry about buffering on the court!

(Then again, it may come in handy on transition.)

I don't know....a buffer might be good with some coaches. They could back it up and retract their comments before we hear them.

In regard to coaches, I prefer Bufferin.
