So just before halftime last night, the magic were down by three. they shootup an airball and kobe saves it from going out of bounds (without controlling it), yet the shot clock reset (actually it went away because there were only three seconds left on the play clock). the shotclock SHOULD not reset unless the other team controls the ball... Kobe OBVIOUSLY did not control the ball. this is not why the lakers lost. Just curious if I was the only one wondering what happened on that one.

i noticed that too
when kobe saved that ball it should've expired but it reset immediately

I asked this samething in the game day thread, it definitely should have been a shot clock violation but for whatever reason they missed it

[tsidebotham]

yeah. I was hoping when they reviewed the shot that they would have noticed it... but it's doubtfull they looked that far back.

Ya I didn't understand this either and I waited for Stu or Bill to say anything but even they didn't notice it.

It was a blown call, but Kobe shouldn't have even tried to save it. It was bad shot clock awareness by him.

lol I like how in your signature he looks back like "hey maybe I'll get a response I can T someone up for!"

I was disappointed when the announcers didn't say anything about it.

This is the Lakers we are talking about, refs seem to love throwing the monkey wrench into our games.

either way dwight would've been hacked 53093054 times in the 4th and got beat on the defensive end. that three doesn't seem to make a difference.

oh, completely agree. they would have lost either way. It's just something that SHOULD have been caught and wasnt... not by any of the three ref's any of the announcers or the time keepers.
