Section X--Away-From-The-Play Foul

a. During the last two minutes of the fourth period or overtime period(s) with the offensive team in possession of the ball, all personal fouls which are assessed against the defensive team prior to the ball being released on a throw-in and/or away-from-the-play, shall be administered as follows:

(1) A personal foul and team foul shall be assessed and one free throw attempt shall be awarded. The free throw may be attempted by any play-er in the game at the time the personal foul was committed.

(2) If the foul occurs when the ball is inbounds, the offended team shall be awarded the ball at the nearest point where play was interrupted but no nearer to the baseline than the free throw line extended.

(3) If the foul occurs prior to the release on a throw-in, the offended team shall be awarded the ball at the original throw-in spot, with all privileges, if any, remaining.

That's right. Get it all out. You'll feel better when reality sets in later.

While I disagree with your opinion on the game, I like this tactic lol. Time to look ahead. Nothing will change the outcome of this game no matter our views on it.

[BudBall]

I am so freaking pst right now.

[Kimsey]

Yeah I guess we deserved the free throw and the ball. HOPEFULLY barkley and shaq do the right thing and blast the refs and NBA.

So with the NBA admitting they (their refs) screwed us...http://www.nba.com/2012/news/05/11/hawks-celtics-foul.ap/index.html?ls=iref:nbahpt2And with this explanation of how the refs screwed us on the play where Josh took the long jumper...http://www.sbnation.com/nba/2012/5/10/3013327/josh-smith-video-celtics-vs-hawks-nba-playoffs-2012/in/2775502Are we allowed to talk about how bad the refs were now without someone pretending we are sore losers?

[Gray Mule]

Why don't the Hawk players and coaches and ownership gripe openly about the Refs?Because they would face huge fines from the NBA and it would do no good. All theprotection is on the side of the officials who called the game. A tiny example of howthings work. Refs refused to let Josh in the game. He dared open his mouth and wasgiven a tec. foul call. Two of these and you are out of the game. Now we see why hedidn't object further.

You are absolutely right. Now, if only we had a local media that gave a damn about the Hawks. Can't fine the media. Oh well...
