Worst no-call ever

Jan 192009

As a basketball player, I’ve experienced a lot of bad ref calls. Yesterday set an all time new record for me.

I was hacked while taking the ball up for a shot under the basket. No call, and here is the result:

Broken hand. Since its a spiral break I will need surgery. Early estimate is 6 weeks.

It was the league championship game and we won by the way

I have to end this post now, its really hard to type 100% left handed. Try it.

Isn't the hand part of the ball anyway? NBA.com says it is, my friend. Read here in the second paragraph... http://www.nba.com/analysis/rules_a.html?nav=ArticleList . Oh and btw, are you made of glass or something?? Only kidding, man that is so brutal. How many points did you score pre-injury? haha. Was it instant pain, like you knew it was broke immediately, or did you keep playing because you weren't sure?

Sorry man.

Hand part of ball maybe but gd!!! I think he was closed fisted. And ya it hurt but not that bad really. I grimaced, didn't yell. Called for sub right away tho and sat rest of game. I was 50-50 on break vs bruise, def not sure. The pain was about 1/10th of a ACL or MCL.

Oh and 2 of 3 hand specialists agree, no surgery. GOGO

Chicks dig scars.

Besides, if you learn to type one handed you can be like that russian in goldeneye.
