So no one has anything to say on the missed goaltend last night?

didnt end up mattering he still hit the 3 and they would have won by one

Why not talk about the wrong out of bounds call made on the play before that?

Wasn’t clearly above rim. May have been a goaltend but even if it hit backboard that doesn’t make it automatically goaltending

-1 once it hits the backboard it's automatically goaltending

Would have been a way better 3 if it was goal tending.

[EJB]

-1 once it hits the backboard it's automatically goaltending

-1. Check rule 11. Must be above ring level or upward

-1. Check rule 11. Must be above ring level or upward

obviously if it goes off the backward and comes down it's not goaltending

[EJB]

obviously if it goes off the backward and comes down it's not goaltending

If it’s not clearly upward motion (maybe is going horizontal) it wouldn’t be GT. Not that this is relevant here

...except he would have chocked being down!

[Baruch]

...except he would have chocked being down!

I agree, he may have choked more if he was down, so the GT conversation is very relevant.

[EJB]

He may also have gone for a 2

I take thAt back. Would have been really hard to get a 2 off unless player gets clean catch with some space. Pacers had a foul to give.

You're talking about 11.c. Even if it wasn't a goaltend by 11.c, it's still a goaltend by 11.d. There is absolutely zero question as to whether it was a goaltend. The rest of this discussion is perfectly valid (whether it mattered, was it that big a missed call in real time, etc.)
