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:

Aldridge's right foot was still in bounds. His left was in the air. That is a legal save.

I thought the same thing, yet he somehow manages to be the least disturbing looking dude in the pics.

They are all disturbing. Look behind the smiles of those cheerleaders...they are not comfortable at all.

Nah, his foot's pretty clearly down at this point, as he's touching the ball.

It was to fast to see it clearly in the video. Yeah it looks like his foot is down in that still. Not nearly as bad as Durant's though, I could see how it could get missed. Durant's no way.

Black and white calls are the easiest to make.

In or out?

How about WAY THE FUCK OUT???

To me, that's a disservice to the game not to call that...

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay the fuck out! Not even disputable. A terrible disservice to the game. That noncall goes to show how much bias and favoritism there is in the NBA.
 
What Harden only had 9 free throw attempts...bizarre

I wouldn't say that. You don't really know why they missed it. Favoritism is an assumption.

It is unmissable. They only reason can be is that it was purposely missed to give the Warriors a chance to win. I went back and rewatched. Not 1 but 2 refs were looking right at him when it happened.

That frame isn't where his foot landed.

He is still in the air there? In the video it appeared he landed after saving the ball. That frame though.

Yeah, it was. .1 second later, foot in the same spot.

If his foot "hadn't landed yet", it would have moved by this point. He was out before he touched the ball. Watch it at 1/4 speed. there is no mistaking it.

Obviously not anywhere close to as bad as the Durant one from last night, but Aldridge was conclusively out.

Just committed a violation and watched it on the work computer.

I concede.

Quick said that?

I quit reading him pretty much altogether. Maybe i better start again? Does he even have Blazer credentials still?

Yes, Quick had an article about the ownership situation. In it he mentioned Olshey was presented with a minor trade and Jody approved it. The trade never materialized is what was said, whatever that means.

Quick seemed to think it was business as usual and that Jody wouldn't stand in the way of any basketball decisions. It was even said that the team might not be for sale.

Alright, Jody!
 
Jimmy Butler already getting disgruntled with his role on the team in Philadelphia. Dude must be an asshole if the drama follows him wherever he goes.
 
The Brodie is gonna get his tonight, watch!
 
I shit you not, while Westbrook was on the floor stretching, one of his teams trainers stepped on his hand!!! He reacted like it really hurt! Ha!!!
 
Ah man, these were supposed to be posted in the game thread tonight. Not here.
 
What is this. Someone took out the best part of the thread title, "Eat it, HCP!" Either HCP became a moderator, or he carries even more weight than I thought.
