He was finally right. He made some free throws when they counted. After a second try on the first.
 
That could be the most ridiculous call that we'll see in the whole tournament.
 
Only to be out done on the out of bounds call giving the ball to SU.
 
It was a correct call. And it saved Scoop's ass after he missed the first time.
 
If Scoop makes the dang free throw, we don't have to see that replay... I lost count how many times I've seen or heard about it on this channel since it happened. I have no desire to see what ESPN's clowns may be saying, this is bad enough.

You mean the call where Brandon was tackled and should have been shooting free throws?

The lack of a foul call doesn't make up for the fact it went out off of him.

But the foul came first. That wasn't a touch foul. Brandon was tackled. The tackle was the reason why Brandon didn't catch the ball and it went out of bounds on him. I don't understand how anyone can ignore that.

Yeah, did not see it is a tackle. Brandon was coming to the ball and the guy had his arm up. Brandon hit the back of his elbow. Not exactly a tackle in my book but it was a foul none the less.

I don't understand how anyone can ignore our shitty play and instead worry about how the media perceived the game. Which it seems a lot of folks are doing around here.
 
I am sure you are a rules expert, eh?

Expert?

It really takes an expert to know that if you're not supposed to move before a free throw hits the rim, then the guy who ran past the free throw line by that point was committing a violation?

It really takes an expert to see that Triche got hip checked on that play?

Your bar for expert is a little low.

I'll accept the title.

But still, you're bar's a little low.
 
Guys, let's not take our frustration on the simply shoddy showing by Syracuse out on each other. Both teams had multiple missed calls work out in their favor when they shouldn't have, as well as a couple of borderline calls.

There were two terrible calls on that play. The first was a no call on Brandon receiving the pass and second was giving SU posseession of the basketball. What pisses me off is the press is only showing one side of the play. No one should whine about the 2nd miss call because it should be mute if the correct call is made in the first place.
