Hey APG...any chance you can post McGee's block of Gasol from last night? LAte in the 4th quarter (less than a minute to go, I think) and McGee rejected Gasol's dunk attempt...

Thanks APG! Not quite the same kind of play, but I am interested to see if all those who are saying the first one by James "has to be a foul" will the say the same about this one...after all, McGee's follow through makes some contact with Gasol.

Plus, I really liked the play whan it happened and they didn't show any replays of it last night!

I say no foul on this one.

(And on the James one, I never said it I had to be a foul or even should have been a foul, just that it was justifiable within the rules.)

If this play had happened in my high school game, I would not have a foul.

No way, this one is clean. The defender goes vertical in his space, contact is created primarily by the offense.

Oh, I see...Gasol slammed the side of his face into McGee's arm on the follow-through. That makes sense.

I don't see much head contact on the play. I just see Gasol trying to dunk on someone and not being successful at it.

Gasol was hit in the head by McGee on the follow through, not sure how you don't see it.
