Ref makes the judgment call on that. If he thinks the ball has a chance to go in - it's goal-tending. If he doesn't, it's not.

It was NOT a goal-tend. Good call.

I was lying down in bed when the tip happened. I screamed, probably woke up my neighbors.

My girlfriend screamed, too. But she was only happy because it meant I didn't have to beat her up.

what a great guy

Just curious, were the refs also reviewing that when they were reviewing whether the tip beat the buzzer?

Per the rules of NBA replay, goal tending can't be reviewed. Only if the tip was before the buzzer can be reviewed.

I'm still very impressed by this win but the Lakers took the Spurs completely off their style. This is one thing that concerns me in the playoffs and when Tim's minutes increase. His minutes increasing means we go away from a fast paced game and go right back into the Spurs old style. I don't think Pop should increase Tim's minutes at all unless we really need him to post up to settle our offense down a bit and try to get any momentum lost.

We also missed too many wide open shots.

Is Blair the most under rated young player in the league or what? Man, this guy can play. He has Malone-like quick hands with a quick standstill shot underneath the basket to match.

And he's ONLY a 2nd year player!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Damn, this teams' youth is one to build around.

This is a trick question because he doesn't have any knees to hurt.

I think the Spurs take it today. They're hot right now. It's all about the playoffs anyway. Just get there and see what happens.
