David Lee's Flagrant on Blake Griffin

[kylem4711]

What the **** does that mean? "blake griffin means 100 times more to the league that lee too"

do you know what money is? just try to use your head a little

[kylem4711]

I found it comical when he tried to flop when Kobe put his hands on him during an inbound play. Kobe looked like he was about to slap him across the head for that.

thats kobe's rape look. you are mixed up

According to what rule book is that a flagrant? Lee barely touched him, refs decided to give a flagrant with the way Griffin and his teammates overreacted. I'm sure your retard announcers played a role in the call, too.

So let me get this straight, you think the announcers can influence a call made on the court, and your calling them retarded?

Read the rule book, this was the very definition of a flagrant. No attempt could be made on the ball

It's true though, they're the biggest homers ever.

ralph is way better than chick ever was, and he's still alive

Anyone else see that horseshit call? What makes it worse is that the ****ing refs went to review it for a few minutes, and they still called it a flagrant. I swear, David Stern is literally trying to get people to stop watching the NBA. This league is turning into a joke more and more everyday.

1. How is this Stern's fault?
2. That's a flagrant. He made no attempt to try for the ball and his actions were dangerous (pushing/grabbing someone like that while they are jumping is dangerous)

[Chronz]

LOL I thought it was a foul but look at :19 - :22 Griffin outran Lee's reach, the most Lee is doing is grazing him. I can't even.

There is no way Lee can get full strength on a push there.

If he gets full strength its a career ending caliber of a push. When a player is airborne the slightest push is significant, you have to draw the line whenever no attempt can be made on the ball and the player is in midflight.

facts dont matter, it seems. thats why this thread has just turned into an insults thread.

nvm

[Chronz]

No, he didn't. Refs are supposed to give flagrant fouls for something malicious, not something that could have happened..

Prove thats what the rule book says

[Chronz]

Yes, given that you can't tell the difference between "you're" and "your".

So the point your making is that youd rather be grammatically correct than logically coherent? Congrats

Flagrant "1" (FFP1) - unnecessary contact committed by a player against an opponent. The opposing team is awarded two (2) free throws and possession.
Flagrant "2" (FFP2) - unnecessary and excessive contact committed by a player against an opponent. The opposing team is awarded two (2) free throws and possession and the player committing the foul is automatically ejected.

Lee obviously committed F1 by not going for the ball and doing it in an unnecessary manner.

If thats a flagrant then Metta's elbow is capital punishment.

[Raps08-09 Champ]

Lol, it's very clear some people don't know the rules of the NBA.

A Flagrant foul is not absolutely measured based on severity. It's based on whether or not the contact was unnecessary.

Blasphemous. Get outta here with that bs.

How is that relevant to anything that happened, though? Stupid understands what stupid says, it seems.

1. How is this Stern's fault?
2. That's a flagrant. He made no attempt to try for the ball and his actions were dangerous (pushing/grabbing someone like that while they are jumping is dangerous)

1. He tells the refs what to call and what not to call. Not far-fetched, I think
2. How was he going to make an attempt for the ball, anyway? He tried to foul Blake when he was on the ground but he was 1 step too behind. Which is why he grazed him a bit mid air.

Prove thats what the rule book says

Prove where in the rule book that says a simple graze warrants a flagrant foul. FFS, they would barely call a foul on that play a couple of years ago, albeit I do think that it was a foul.

So the point your making is that youd rather be grammatically correct than logically coherent? Congrats

I read your post wrong, I thought you meant that I called you a retard. You should do something about your grammar, anyway, since right about now you're not grammatically correct nor logically coherent.
