Kobe Hits Ricky Rubio's Arm On Game Tying 3 W/No Call

[richtree]

Just wait for the league's official apology in 24 hours stating that the referee in question missed the call. Rubio should have yelled on that like ol boy kobe does and he *might* have got the call. Still disgusting tho

He's a 79% FT shooter for his career. Post backfire.

A 79% FT shooter makes three straight less than half the time.

Well I guess we'll never know what would have happened, since nothing got called.

Corey Brewer is a 67% FT shooter and he made three straight to win the game against the 6ers.

mamba out

Whats your point? A 10% FT shooter can potentially make three straight.

Fact is the majority of the time Rubio isn't hitting all three of them FTs.

Dude posted Rubios career FT percentage like that made him a lock to make all three... when he misses at least one of them the majority of the time.

Whatever chance he had of making all 3 is a lot greater than his chances of scoring 3 points when they ignore the foul altogether.

and when you add in the likelihood of a ref calling a foul in that situation the chances of the Timberwolves actually tying that game are slim to none.

Yes, Ricky Rubio trying to make a running 3 against the clock is not a high percentage play. That doesn't mean the refs should essentially walk off the court with two seconds left to play in the game.

Anyone who has watched the NBA in the last 15 years knows that the majority of these calls are going to go in the Lakers favor so I don't think anyone in their right mind is going to complain about that non-call or even question it. Its just the way it is. Rubio is a 79% shooter. Mathematically he should make 3/3 49% of the time. Thats hardly the impossibility you're making it out to be.
