The Dunk

Forget the line, the defender did not have his feet positioned until after Evans started his shooting motion.
 
Who cares about the call? It's preseason. Naaasty dunk though. Evans is a keeper, I hope he can find some time.
 
Forget all that stuff about whether it was a foul or not. Evans dunked on a guy standing outside the circle. Outside the circle!
 
That was awesome and was probably amazing to see live. The spectacular athleticism coupled with the excitement of the play in the game must have really set the crowd off. Until...OFFENSIVE FOUL

That ref should be ashamed of his morbid existence.

The last NBA game I was at (Bulls game last March), I was fortunate enough to have front row seats and I started talking to a ref during a commercial break. I told him that I paid all that money for that ticket so I can see him and his two other worthless compatriots lumbering up and down the floor trying to referee a basketball game. I told him I wanted him to ruin the fast tempo of the game as much as possible, and make controversial calls with demonstrative theatrics. I told him how I especially love it when one of the trio of dunces messes up a call right in front of their eyes and they congregate for 10 minutes squabbling about some of humanity's most arbitrary and mundane instances.

Boy, did I get my money's worth that night.
 
The call pisses me off on just the principle that it took away from a spectacular dunk. For chrissakes it's preseason refs, swallow the damn whistles on a play like that.
 
It was a bad call. Wallace moved out of the circle after Evans was jumping in the air. One of the best dunks I've see, it was a shame that NBA refs had to wreck another Jazz moment. I thought the refs pretty much sucked last night for both teams. They were calling ticky-tack fouls at the beginning and then just looked the other way as the Blazers were mugging the Jazz the last two minutes of the game.

I don't know how Evans doesn't get playing time. The kid always does something positive with his limited minutes.
