NBA Miracle Shot ! .4 Conspiracy !

The Spurs contend that the clock started too late and Derek Fisher's winning shot for the Lakers should not count.


"I think it definitely started late," Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich said in his postgame press conference.

There were 0.4 seconds left when Gary Payton inbounded the ball to Fisher.

"If you look at the replay, he brings (the ball) from his waist all the way up to his shot," said Devin Brown. "Everybody's thinking the shot shouldn't have counted."

It's highly unlikely that the league will overturn the ruling on the floor, but the Spurs' management felt strongly enough to file the written protest.

I think this thread should be in BTS, i don't really think it's relevant to what ATS is about. This is more chit chat than anything.

It doesn't belong on BTS either. It belongs on SportzTawk.

but spending the time to bitch about it is certainly worth the time!

You act like this is the first time its every happen. It happens all the time, in all sports.


That is really the wrong way to use bitch, bitch is a female dog. How can you stop to female dog?
