Can someone explain the Gasol/garnett out of bound play

[dirkdiggler41]

They saw the replay, but why did they not change it?

edit. This thread was not made to discuss all the other fouls, I just wanted to know what happend in the play. Beat LA!

cuz it was not clear, and the rule is to stick by the ruling on the floor as much as possible

They were giving the game to Boston.

Probably the single most pivotal moment in the entire game, Lakers down 3, clearly Laker ball, and instead, they give the Celtics the ball.

Wonder what they were talking about in that huddle...

All of America saw it. Only Boston fans will say it was off Gasol. That's OK though. The game's over.

Not clear? KG clearly palmed and smacked it out of bounds...

lol. Bullshit.

I'm guessing the call made on the floor is given deference unless the replay evidence is 100%, incontrovertably conclusive, much like in the NFL.

This was a blown call though. Which makes it entirely consistent with the rest of the game.

It was clear as day that it was off Garnett. On one of the replays it shows Gasols hand 4 inches from KG's fingertips knocking it out.

[Gevz2kX]

it was a bad call and should've been overturned. But the refs didn't find "clear" evidence that they made a mistake, so they have to go with the original call.

[StacksOnDeck]

Lakers were only down 3 at that point.
