Why do officials wait to see the result of the shot before calling a foul

[Rich Boy]

Its so blatant they dont even try to conceal it.

If the shot misses its a foul, it they make it then no foul. What the hell kind of officiating rule is that?

[Fishgold]

yeah thats a good call. especially with kobe......kobe misses, falls, gets up and 3 seconds later a whistle

if he doesnt get the call the other team goes down and scores as he argues

[PhillyFlyers]

Because it's a fixed league. If he makes the shot, it's not a foul. If he misses it, it is.

Ball don't lie.

That's why Anthony shoots about 26 free throws a game
