    I didn't see the play. Do you have it?

    A player may legally save the ball to himself if he reestablished both feet in bounds before touching it again.

    I'd need to see the play.

    That is the worst missed call I have ever seen.

    I watch it he had both feet out bounds by 3 feet the referees total blew it that play. He was already out of bounds when he threw it back in to one of own player for a score. If it wasn't for Harden great shot at the end the ref would cost Houston the game.

    Gonna get on my soapbox for a minute.

    It's a dumb excuse for something this egregious but I have a problem with this lack of contrast in colors between the jersey and the floor. It pisses me off that teams can wear whatever color they choose but there is a reason why it was always home whites and road darks for decades.

    This bright yellow jersey combo with their court design offers no contrast whatsoever. I feel the same way when we wear our bright red alternates at home.

    Can we please go back to the way it was? Hell I can't even tell where these games are held sometimes with all this jersey switching without paying attention to center court. Our eyes and brains just aren't trained for these constant changes. It's annoying as hell.

    I can't find the words to emphasize how terrible this is. I can say I've never seen anything like it. Wtf.

    We had a call just like this in our favor in one of Dame's most memorable games:
    Look at Aldridge save the ball inbounds about 7 mins in.



    Or one that went against us:

    Yeah but those are just one foot in live action so they will be missed occasionally. Durant literally took 4 steps out of bounds and had both feet way past the line when he touched the ball.

    That was a horrible non-call on Durant. I don't understand how the refs could miss that?

    That's not a missed call. That's a guy trying to get fired.

    Woj and Ramona say Butler is causing a rift in Philly. And yet again, Woj references an event in Portland.

    Neil has to be planting some seeds here. Witnesses?

    C'mon man, that is a huge stretch to think that Olshey would be the one giving Woj information about Philly simply because it happened in Portland. They got their asses kicked here.

    I was being sarcastic. Even I know the Woj-Neil connection doesn't go that far.

    KAT is vindicated here, right? Jimmy seems like a horrible teammate

    Okay good, it is interesting that he's causing problems in yet another place. I wonder if Philly would trade him before the deadline so they don't lose him for nothing in free agency.
