NBA Finals Game 6 - Spurs @ Heat

Rat 10 you might want to learn the rules before speaking next time.

Establishing a pivot foot for a player who catches a live ball on the playing court:

While moving:
▬ If one foot is touching the floor, that foot becomes the pivot foot.

That would be Ray Allen's right foot on this play. His right foot is on the floor when he takes possession of the ball. Then he steps back with his left and then with his right.

Progressing with the ball for a player who has established a pivot foot while having the control of a live ball on the playing court:

While moving:
▬ To pass or shoot for a field goal, the player may jump off a pivot foot and land on one foot or both feet simultaneously. After that, one foot or both feet may be lifted from the floor but neither foot may be returned to the floor before the ball is released from the hand(s).


So in this play Allen's right foot is his pivot he may jump off it and land on his left as he did but he is not allowed to return his pivot (that would be his right foot in case you forgot) before releases the ball. He didnt step to a 2 foot simultaneous jump shot so that part of the rule doesnt apply.

And just a side note, Ray Allen travels to step back and hit the 3 with 5 seconds to go. You cant take 2 steps without a dribble. Takes possession, steps back with his right foot, then brings the left together "tweet, tweet, travel!!"

No doubt that play on Manu was a foul.

Even that 3 point attempt by Bosh had a lot of lower body contact.

Wouldn't expect those calls to be made at that stage of the game though.

Simply put, the Spurs gave the game away.

I feel like they have given away the championship. It's heartbreaking.

Leonard missing that free throw may haunt him forever. Spurs should never have lost this one!

I'm scared for Spurs now...

No Statesheet.
Heat just let the calls get to them.

I would be nice if the series played out to all 7 games. The Heat will be hard to beat and so a Spurs win in game 6 would be special.

Heat hold all the aces going into this game.
