Lmao. Totally unnecessary jump ball and then he told the ref to make it an unfair toss. Road warrior brothers had clip ml huge. U can't make this shit up.

I dont understand why they didnt just give Memphis the ball under their basket. No one would have 2nd guessed that decision, and the game would have ended w/o controversy.Comment -

Didn't see the game but love a good conspiracy theory. Can someone give me a quick brief of exactly what happened? ThanksComment -
OK
Clippers have possession of the ball with 15 secs left on game clock, but only 10 seconds left on shot clock.
Erik Bledsoe runs down game clock to 8 sec, then decides to drive toward the paint.
While in a hurry, he runs over a Memphis defender and a foul is called with 5 seconds is left on the clock.
But the Shot clock sounded, and two different types of fouls(Charge and block) are called by two different refs.
Refs go to the monitor to see if shot clock sounded B4 the foul, and its decided that the foul occurred first.
But the problem is that their were two different types of foul called. A charge results in Memphis ball out of bounds, and a blocking foul results in two Memphis free throws.
Refs come back from the monitor, and decided instead of just giving Memphis the ball rather they would jump the ball from center court.
Clippers gained possession from the tip, and the game is done.Comment -
This is the 3rd game I`ve personally seen him fix a game, unbelievable...Comment -
that's a really bad ending, they should use replay to determine the correct call, not call a jump ball. a jump ball implies that the referees cannot properly determine what happened.Comment -
Brothers was determined to cash this one out. Clip ml went from +442 to +400.Comment -
Damn Grizzlies blow a 9 point 4th quarter lead
That ending was shady to say the least....

Did you play the game LB?Comment -
Thanks Houl. Heres my problem though.. If Brotherss was on the Clips ML surely he would have needed to make way more dodgy calls throughout the game (maybe he did I didn't see it) as they were down big when i checked the score and surely he has no idea if they would make a comeback or not. If he was just on the spread there was no need to make that call at the end which just shows everyone with a trained eye that something dodgy was going on as he doesn't need to care which team wins if its only by a couple of points.Comment -
Naw, the Griz threw this game, they want to keep #8 seed and face the Sperms first round.
I don't know why you fvckers didn't respond to my earlier post about the Griz -9 being a trap but whatever... hedged 2H and put down BIG $$ 2H Jazz.
So yeah... had myself a nice dinner out today.

f. If a double foul occurs as a result of a difference in opinion by the officials, no points can be scored and play shall resume with a jump ball at the center circle between any two opponents in the game at that time.Comment -
ok I checked it again and it was 100% no shotclock violationComment -
as you can see there was still 1 second left on the shotclock when the foul was commited.
So the refs did the right thing, didn't they?

They followed the rule of the double foul, but the thing I don't get is how can you have a charge and block on same play? The refs shouldn't be able to call a charge and block at same time on same spot on the floor. It's either one or the other no inbetween right? Either way it was an unorganized ending of the game. Tony Brothers and Violet Palmer both are horrible refs.Comment -
The thing is one of the refs made the wrong call:
charge OR blocking foul
but because of this the rule

doesnt give another opp. than a jumpball.Comment -
It's the female ref (Violet Palmer) who challenged the initial call... It was first called a charging foul, then the bitch came marching in saying how it was a blocking foul. They called it a double foul which then resulted in a jump ball... So if anything, it's Palmer who had money on Clips, because had it not been for her, it would be a Grizzly ball.Comment -
I hear ya man it was the right call as far as the rulebook goes. I just cant remember last time I saw a double foul called on a charge/block it seems like 99% of the time the refs come together on a call like that and make one or the other. Personally the call didnt effect me either way as I was on Grizzlies -9 that was a loser no matter what happen there
