He Walked...
 
Vandy got screwed. The refs just lookin for fouls, missed the fact that Green switched pivot foots.

ddthetide 03-23-2007 08:42 PM

Yes he did !

Coach Pants 03-23-2007 08:44 PM

It's bullshit but i'd rather have the game end. No need for overtime when it'll just screw the line. :D

Please you dont call that.. ever, besides did anyone notice he was fouled on the way up and on the floor.

SCUDSBROTHER 03-23-2007 10:15 PM

He knocked down the tough shot.Good enough for me.

skippy3481 03-23-2007 10:31 PM

Did he get an extra step, yes... Did he get fouled.... yes I would much rather him play through the contact and walk and let the shot decide the game.

There was no contact. THAT "D" WAS PERFECT. The guys were straight up and and didn't leave their feet. I'll give Green credit for splitting the defenders though. It's easy to do that when you switch pivot feet.

For credibility's sake, look at my brack on yahoo. I have G-Town goin to the final four. But I don't want the game to end on bullshit. It did.

I think the entire thing is questionable (and for cred sake, I too have Gtown going to the final four). He walked, yes, but he also got hit more than once before he walked. That whole short sequence was a mess, him getting hit, him taking a little walk -- you've got to call both, or you've got to call neither when it's all that questionable. If you call both, he goes to the line first and they win anyway.

You can't call that walk in that situation, the naked eye wouldn't see that in that case unless you were DIRECTLY looking at it......

It's good that at least Gottlieb and Majerus are on my side... but what can you do?

agree 100%.....and I think the reason you don't call it is...he lifts the pivot, spins, and shoots and never put the pivot back down.....good no call I think....

ddthetide 03-24-2007 07:46 AM

he changed pivot foot.... the refs are watching for a foul but he clearly traveled. should have been called, i don't care how much time was left.

skippy3481 03-24-2007 09:56 PM

You would have to be directly looking at his foot that lifted about what 3 inches on the ground. Please, they let the contact go, you have to let that go. Let the players decide it.
