The L2M report is going to be super spicy

Just read it. Lots of Correct No Calls. Whatever.

This ending or Sundiata shot? Any other regular season endings better?

And both of those calls "erroneously" benefitted the jazz. How about that?

I love the explanation on the Clarkson flagrant 2...well we called the replay center and decided it was a flagrant 2. Such spin masters.

No… the screen one left is disadvantaged.

The Millsap/Miami game still tops the list to me.

The Millsap/Miami game still tops the list to me.

There was also a game in the mid-aught's, when we had lost to San Antonio like a million times in a row, and San Antonio comes to Utah on a roll, having won 8 of their last 10, and with a last second layup Memo wins the game for us. I need to look it up, but for me that stands out as a defiant win against one of the juggernaut of the aughts.


Here it is, they did rest Duncan but we still barely eeked out a win. And the Spurs went on to win the championship that year. For me that was pretty memorable.

Spurs lose as Duncan sits

(AP) - No matter how much Tim Duncan pleaded to get back into San Antonio\'s game at Utah, coach Gregg Popovich kept the two-time MVP on the bench.After missing Duncan for 12 games with a sprained ankle, Popovich wasn\'t risking anything - even for a win that could keep the Spurs\' hopes alive...

So Duncan rested and the Spurs lost to the Jazz 93-91 on Mehmet Okur\'s layup with 2.4 seconds remaining Wednesday night.

Well there are plenty of arguments for this game:
- Having replacement role players (replacing the starting role players) in at the last minute. Including being without top 2 scoring threats.
- Winning outright after being down 4 points with 15 seconds left while the opponent had the ball
- Here is the fact I love the most: Not a single free throw was shot. By neither team.

I know its just a regular season game, but the heist was so great it almost deserves a name.

Yeah I think it is that first one I was thinking about. We hadn't won against them in 5 years. That was a satisfying ending for sure.

I’ll confess that it’s been a couple years since I’ve really read through L2M unless it’s something very specific, but it seems they’re adding more detail. Here’s one that caught my eye:

Period: Q4	Time: 00:14.8	Call Type: Foul: Personal	Committing Player: Kelly Olynyk	Disadvantaged Player: Jordan Poole	Review Decision: CNC	Video Url: Video
Comment:	After gathering the ball, Poole (GSW) brings his arms up as Olynyk (UTA) steps forward toward him, and contact occurs to Olynyk's face. Poole is entitled to his vertical space (even though he is not shooting) and since he did not extend his arms forward into Olynyk or appear to seek out contact, the contact is deemed to have occurred because Olynyk is moving forward towards Poole's space. Given the fact that Poole is not in a shooting motion, a no call is appropriate. If a foul were warranted, it would be on Olynyk.

That is the way i saw it as well. Olynyk created contact to try to draw a foul. It was a smart move by olynyk as we were in desperation mode at that point and due to his elite floppability he had a decent shot at getting the call.
Refs correctly didnt make a call on the play. Great effort by KO though. Also I got to laugh a bunch when watching the replay after the game ended so I appreciated that aspect. One of the best flops of all time. No hyperbole.

I was watching the game and when the tech happened my wife was trying to ask me something and I said hold on I need to see this call. When it went how it did I was like, okay what's up. She got half way through the question when I heard the steal happen and I interrupted her and ran back to the TV. I was too late and she was a little upset. I saw the replay right away and made her watch it. She forgave me right away. Thanks Jazz

I remember as a kid I was grounded, no tv so I listened to a jazz vs kings before the kings were good (the Richmond years) well anyways I believe the jazz were down by 6 with 15-20 seconds to go, and I believe the jazz were down 5 I think, Stockton hit a three got a steal and a long two to tie it and send to overtime. It was a long time ago so I’m fuzzy on the details, but that sticks in my mind as I remember having to listen on the radio because I was grounded to my room. Idiot parents, forcing me to my room was hardly a punishment back then. Lol probably why I’m such a bad person today

Okay, so that formatting got goofy and I couldn’t post after that without it being messed up, but WTF is the bolded? They say it’s a “correct no call” but then say “if a foul were warranted, it would be on Olynyk.” Like WTF. You just said there wasn’t a foul. What’s this “if”? You’re saying a foul wasn’t warranted, but if we pretended a foul was warranted… why Olynyk? “It doesn’t meet the criteria, but if it did, then it would.” WTF writes this mental masturbation? Steve Javie?

“It doesn’t meet criteria. But if it did, then it would.”

I think they are just using a lot of technical terms to say: The no call was correct but we acknowledge that there was contact that made it appear a call should have been made. The contact was caused by Kelly Okynyk so if a call were to be made (which it really shouldnt be) then the foul would be on KO.

That is exactly how i saw the play as well. Great job by the officials on that particular play. Probably should have left it out of the 2 minute report or simply said it was the right call with no further explanation but fans would be pissed that it was left out or that there was no further explanation.
