Worst Call EVER

March 07th, 2008 | Category: basketball,sports

I might be biased, but I’m pretty sure Lawrence Hill’s “foul” on Darren Collison is the worst call ever:

Kids, remember: that’s what it looks like to get screwed by referees.

Thanks,

    Apparently I’m not that biased since the guy who “got fouled” didn’t think it was a foul either. I think I’m going to go outside and yell at random people for a while:

    One of the reasons Stanford had difficulty swallowing the loss was the controversial call that sent the game into overtime. With Stanford leading 63-61 and less than three seconds remaining in regulation, Collison went up for a shot against Lawrence Hill, which appeared to be blocked cleanly. Hill, however, was called for the foul and Collison hit both free throws with 2.5 seconds left to send the game into overtime.

    “I’m not going to comment on the officiating,” Johnson said when asked about the call.

    A grinning Collison, looking as giddy as a child that had just gotten away with something, was more than happy to comment on the play.

    “That was block,” said Collison. “That was a complete block. We were fortunate to get a foul called. I heard it was a make-up [call].”

    Kevin Love, who had an equally large grin on his face, said, “We’ll take it,” before he shushed Collison.
