Magic @ Kings Game Thread

Tyreke is playing like absolute crap tonight.

there are a number of players playing far worse

 

[piksi]

Against Utah a couple years back. This is just as collapsetastic.

and you had to go there - didn't you

yeah like basically the whole team lol

from post #174


The way I interpret the rule is that a catch and shoot can occur if 0.3 seconds is left on the clock, no less. Recent league wide interpretation has people believing that the language necessitates 0.4 seconds for a catch and shoot. If I'm missing something, the rulebook is in that link and someone will be lurking to strike me down.

edit: in response to this,

"NO LESS THAN :00.3 must expire on the game clock when a ball is thrown inbounds and then hit instantly out-of-bounds"

I think the rule does mean that 0.4 seconds must be on the clock. If 0.3 remains and you deduct 0.3 no time remains. You must have at least 0.4 then to get a shot off other than a tip, which can take only 0.1. This has how it has been stated by every NBA announcer also.

True. In the second half, everyone has been Nocionied. I knew this would happen the second he hit his first shot.

 

[AussieKing]

Well at least D12 is putting up good numbers for my Fantasy Team.

maybe, but standards aren't same for everybody. With Evans - the criticism will be proportional to praise. Get used to it.

 

[casspion]

Wow Hose make me respect bargnani. He at least played Howard like a man and not like a wuss.Andrea worked on his body and he looks like a center.

 

[Merdiesel]

Hawes has zero touch.

 

[Ed2009]

If Casspi is leading the team in boards and assists something is wrong..

 

[piksi]

JWill still got it

 

[Fear the Putin]

if only we had Hilton tonight...we would have shut down Dwight

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

Well, you can't say we aren't polite. Were letting anyone in the paint as long as there willing.

 

[Larry89]

one of the worst 4th quarter collapses ever

 

[Merdiesel]

This team has no clue as to how to build a lead.

If you go by common application of the rule then you are correct. The rule should always be applied in that sense. I would be mad about it if we lost by three, but we're down by 21. Meh.

 

[AussieKing]

Nearly every game this year and pretty much every time i refresh the Play-by-Play, i seem to get this error

"Andres Nocioni misses 25-foot three point jumper"

It must be an error it comes up way too much... Does this guy ever pass the ball!

 

[piksi]

33-10 in th 4th for the Magic

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

We scored a whopping 10 points that quarter. Phenomonal close out.

 

[rainmaker]

I don't care what the standards are 33 games into his career. I know what is realistic. Tyreke played well in the 2nd half and created for others. No one really converted. He also has 0 TO's. Now, he didn't shoot that well, and he has played much better for us. But JT, Omri, Beno, and Ime all played poorly, and Noc and Sergio barely showed up. There's plenty of blame to go around.

or hold one

worse than GS?

 

[mac]

If spence has no touch with the ball I wonder what JT has.

we got ownned

Did you miss the game against Chicago?

Nope. sounds about right.

No, Beno kept us in the game in first half. and Omri had 11/11. They both played great.

 

[Emma]

That he does.

and you had to go there - didn't you

*cough*lapse.

 

[Ed2009]

Its very simple:
We win as a team and if we lose its Noc´s fault

 

[rainmaker]

No, Beno kept us in the game in first half. and Omri had 11/11. They both played great.

If you look at the quote I was referring to, standards were brought up. Neither played well by their standards.
