Your the board official. Explain the miss goaltend to me.
There's really nothing to explain. It was a missed call. Clearly above the cylinder when an offensive player touched it.
That looked so obvious in real time. Really don't know how they missed it.
correction. ball was in the cylinder when the miami player touched it. so obvious.it was a major missed call.
Yeah, I thought so too. The trouble begins with the fact the ball (on a shot) is trail's responsibility, but I'm guessing he was too far away to get a good look at it. Lead isn't supposed to look above the bottom of the backboard (+/-), for he's supposed to be watching bodies in the lane there. Middle must have gotten screened or "straight-lined." It was just a cold dead miss. Happens more often at the elite level than you'd think, too. In the Kansas/Ok St game opposite the Pitt game last week, a dunk attempt was blocked by a Kansas player whose blocking hand came up through the basket. It's a violation, and it was just plain missed. Television replay isn't kind to officials, for to be honest, we miss calls. Period. On that OB play under two minutes that they looked at (it clearly went off Miami no. 22's knee, and the officials gave the ball back to SU), Fair was freaking clobbered across the arm by no. 22, but the official missed it. On the replay it looked like he got straight-lined. And Greg Anthony was still claiming you couldn't tell, when it was very obvious. And so was the foul, too, and Anthony didn't say a word about that.
is goal-tending, (or the failure to call it), reviewable and if not why not?

Guess I get to take the job of ref defender. I watched it 10 times super-slow and I'm not sure he touched it.
Good point. I wasn't looking for that so I can't say if he did.But he touched the rim which is automatic basket interference weather he touched the ball or not.
And I'm not saying he didn't but at the frame-rate and angle of the replay, I don't think I see him touching the ball.Guess I get to take the job of ref defender. I watched it 10 times super-slow and I'm not sure he touched it.
Although in real time, I was sure he had.

I shouldn't like that post, bit it literally made me LOL, so it gets tee'd up.
