One more thing. The lead knew it went in — I guarantee you. Watch his body language.

What do you normally do on a steal? You immediately start sprinting the other way. He knew the ball went in and was clearly waiting for the team to take it out of bounds.

This is from about two seconds after the white player grabs the ball and the referee still has not moved an inch and is just standing there waiting...

The second photo CLEARLY shows that the ball is within the cylinder. And the third photo you can see that the orange RIM is in FRONT of the ball —*if the ball was in front of the rim, you wouldn't see the rim, you'd see the ball.

I don't dispute the conclusion, only your reading of what the photo shows....

I zoomed and cropped to just the rim in your 3rd shot.

It doesn't show enough detail to determine anything. For all I know, that is bigfoot that is near the rim. It definitely doesn't make it clear that the rim is in front of the ball. (The 2nd shot is equally inconclusive)

You can totally see the rim and that the bottom of the ball is clearly within it. How could the ball possibly be in front of it?

I think the shot came from the grassy knoll

Hey, take it to the UFO board.

Or 4 people that know it didn't go in! :D

If I've learned anything from shows like CSI and NCIS, it's that you're suppose to blow up the image, then enhance it! :rolleyes:

I've cleaned it up...

It's "The Zapruder Film - The Sequel".

To hopefully end the debate
 

Well then....

Fair enough. I still maintain the video in the OP was not that clear though. So this raises the question, why didn't the L do anything?

I still maintain that my eyesight is better than the rest of y'all!!! :)
