I was kinda of routing for the mavs, but:
First, it's not the first time that type of contact doesn't get a call, second if the ball didn't went in it would be the Nuggets fans that would be cursing the ref
So props for Melo and wright could have done more.
It was a good shot but put an asterix on that game
The Mavs just don't match up well with this year's Nuggets.
WEAK "foul" by Wright... there is NO reason not to just hold him there if he wants to foul him. Why does he back off immediately after the bump like he was trying not to foul. If anything he confused the refs with that... it looked like he was just hoping he delayed Melo's progress enough that time would have run out.

I think he didn't want Melo to get a shot attempt off and then get 3 shots
But an experienced player would have been able to do the second foul correctly, let alone the first
My instant reaction was also that Wright was motioning "I didn't foul him". But logically it makes no sense. Why would Wright stop if he thought he DIDN'T foul him. He stopped playing for a reason.
Wright clearly should have continued playing and not take anything for granted, so he is wrong. But he thought foul was so obvious, that who could possibly miss it?
Woops.

It has nothing to do with the league being rigged.[/QUOTE]
agreed.
They can't blame it on one possession like J-Kidd said. It's a mistake. But refs always make mistakes. Maybe there's a mistake in the middle of the game against the Nuggets.
Wow not GK is even more of a lil b1tch then he was before..."I didn't see a foul"
what a coward you already stole the game from them might as well admit the mistake you little chump...that's why your son ain't playing....and yo ass gonna get butt raped by the lakers...this is the year for denver...they gonna be ****ty next year compared to now cause billy ain't getting younger...lol another failure year for melo boy..

:lol Yea, because George Karl was the one who "stole" the game from them. It's Karl's fault the refs were trying to hand the Mavericks the game last night.
What's so difficult to understand? It was a situation in which everybody in the building knew what the MAVS wanted to do.....take a situational foul.
No different than when the defensive team wants to foul and the offensive player throws the ball at the basket knowing he's trying to take the foul. Does the official make this a 3pt attempt? And give him 3 shots? No.
well...only if they choose to.
So much room for interpretation in the rule book for the officials they can do whatever they want. The teams didnt matter, it was a good day in the desert.

nugget fans vs the NBA and the rest of the reasonable fans plus the press equals you won don't be a sore winner admit the refs ****ed it up and move on.
Nuggets > Mavs
[QUOTE=OneMoreSucka]Nuggets > Mavs[/QUOTE]
agreed so there is no reason for the NBA to give the game to the Nuggets. So you want the corrected call to count so you can go ahead and prove how much better they are than the Mavs? I think they should. The NBA has an agenda and they work towards that. So far this year only the Magic have screwed up the NBA's plans by beating the 76'ers with Howard gone in the last game of the series. The NBA its fixedtastic.

There's a whole load of people in this thread who don't measure up with your description of a 'reasonable fan'. Maybe take another vote, your last one sucks.
