celtics 128-38

 

well people are saying this has been a historic series, and it certainly would be historic for a team to score zero points in an entire half of basketball.

no, but i'm watching the replay and he definitely grabbed him, at all.

 

we're talking about game seven of the celtics-bulls series, that play where hinrich stole the ball from pierce, correct? just making sure we're on the same page because right now i feel like i'm taking crazy pills.

he did grab him briefly when hinrich tipped the ball away. it wasn't what made hinrich fall, but Pierce did grab him.

you can drop it all day long but if you have a dvr, you'd know he grabbed him.

it's not what caused him to fall, but i think the ref would have been willing to let it go, had he not fallen.

i guess my definition of grab is different than other people's. i consider a grab to be when one person puts his arm out and either grasps or impedes the progress of another player, not when two guys' arms barely rub against each other.

 

it's pretty irrelevant though; if they called every time there was that much contact there would be 500 fouls each game. it was a really bad call but it's the nba, so i sort of expect that.

It looked pretty clear to me that Pierce inadvertently clipped Hinrich's foot on his way passed that knocked Hinrich off balance and caused him to trip over his own feet.

 

EDIT: And Jon's screencap shows it perfectly.

when you hook another players arm with your hand, that's kind of the definition of grabbing.

So you're both arguing about something that had nothing to do with the foul. Makes sense.

 

Bulls just scored another point.

like i said, it was a grab that happens all the time and is generally not that serious, but kirk fell and lost possession.
