Yeah it was I saw that too but the reffs thought Pek got a piece of it.
Ok move on.

[blahblahyoutoo]

lmao, there was no one within 10 ft of him.
are the refs blind?

The reffs don't call everything. They have to balance the calls going one team's way versus the other's. If reffs called everything games would go on forever. The only reason he didn't get called was because the Hawks were down.

No that's not the reason at all. The refs just missed this call. It happens and it sucks. Remember the foul that wasn't called on Bargnani that decided the outcome of a game?

this blown call was so obvious, the only explanation is that they really don't know the rules to the game.

rubio jumped out of the seat in disbelief.

[Wisdom Listens]

There was actually two of those in that game. Williams (ATL) did the same thing, and it was much more obvious.

[king4day]

Not sure how they missed it but I don't think it effected the outcome of the game.

[dodie53]

travel.

Of course the refs know the rules or they wouldnt be refereeing at this level!! What advantage did Horford get from the play? None whatsoever so why call a travel? Pek didn't even leave the ground so he wasn't disadvantaged so no need to make that particular call. I agree this is a travel but no need to call it.

Referees make mistakes, they are human! Name one player out there that didn't make a mistake? So how about you guys accept the fact referees occasionally screw up but that they are right 99% of the time? Its idiots like you who don't understand the game and the concept of advantage/disadvantage that make it harder for referees to go out there and do the job.

[JDMVP]

THEN DONT WATCH lol. the NBA were traveling and lifting simple rules of basketball dont mean jack anymore

Ding Ding Ding. They missed the call it happens in all sports.

so because no one benefits from an illegal move, they should just let the rules slide?

i can accept 1, even 2 refs missing a close judgement call because they had their view partially obstructed.
3 refs missing a ball thrown 10 feet in the air and caught by the same player, with no defender around him, is unacceptable.
"i didn't get a good view" is not a valid excuse.

[Hawkeye15]

yes, its an obvious travel. The refs missed it. Oh well. They missed two hellacious travels in that game on Atlanta.

[mbsalame123]

that was an up and down so its a travel... wow dumbass refs but at least the wolves came out there and dominated and pekovic ****ed horford up!!!!!

whatever its the NBA, stars get away with plays like that.
