i agree with your call Big Marty. that was the first thing i looked at after it was too hard to tell if he touched it. the ball behaved as it should have with no one touching it.

The team does not have a choice as to whether the ball is advanced or not. If they call the timeout and it is their possession the ball MUST be advanced.

Guys, if Balls had tipped the shot, there would have been some sort of trajectory change in the ball or a much quicker spin than when the ball had when it bounced off the rim.

Look at the replay and you'll find there was no change in the balls movement whatsoever. Reaching up and tapping the ball in anyway would have moved the ball forward, or put more backspin on the ball or something.

Bucket was a 3ptr.

Simple, have a look at their shooting record. They are shooting around 20% from the three point arc (+/- a bit !) and around 70% when they get the ball in the paint.

In that game against Perth, they got 9 OR's from 41 misses (22%), but generally recover around 30% of their misses as OR's.

EC, the shot had 20% chance from the 3P line, but 80+% for this tip in. An Offensive rebound has a 30% chance, plus 70% for the shot in the paint. Every point counts and so on the balance of probabilities:

20% x 3 Points = 0.6 points
80% x 2 Points = 1.6 points
30% x 70% x 2 Points = 0.42 points

The tip in would be the safer option that the rebound.

I have had a look at that replay many times and watched the ball. I don't believe Balls actually touched the ball as there was no deviation on the flight of the ball.

Balls did touch the ring and this seems to be the only contact.

Reminds me a bit of a someone going for a goal in Aussie Rules and someone pushing the goal post

"PS warning includes a Jacob 3pointer"

You make it sound like a news story warning

Agreed...even with the NBA review rule, it would have still been a 50/50 call by the refs...
