    Yeah, then Bogut committed an obvious foul on our next possession, but the refs refused to foul him out. SMH

    Tough call. Lamebeer had the arrogance/complain to the refs act down pat - but I always felt his defense was over-rated. Rick Mahorn maybe?

    Aminu did in fact have a great game. He was a huge contributor in the win.

    Will they continue to leave him open next game? If they do will he make them pay? I'm going with yes, and yes.

    :cheers:

    I've always wanted to shoot on an NBA 3pt line. How do you get in there

    Gotta be staff. They are pretty Gestapo about it. I saw Wiggins there. Candace Parker. I could get you into the employee store but the facility is another animal. The best place to go for you would probably be the Beaverton Hoop.

    @dviss1
    I have a question for you.
    For the Aminu dunk early in the second quarter. Would you have called that a flagrant according to the letter of the law in the NBA? Citing contact to the head/neck area flagrant 1? I'm curious for your perspective.
    Apologies if you've already address this.

    Edit - sorry I don't know how to find a vine for the play.

    If you go by the letter of the law, yes that's a flagrant 1. The referees should've called that. 2 and the ball. They were probably reluctant to do that because you really want to let the players decide the game.

    I however, don't believe the flagrant 1 should even be a call.

    My contention is he was making a play on the ball and just couldn't get to it. I don't see one flagrant thing about it. Had I been making the call it would simply be a common foul.

    Edit: great question. I love to do this. As a referee (if you want to master your craft) I watch PLENTY of video to analyze basketball plays. It's very fun for me so keep the questions coming!
