Ok, first of all, if I misinterpreted what he said, it is because he used poor sentence structure. He should have used a comma.
I think you need to stop winking because anyone who watched the play could see that Bibby hooked Kobe after he was elbowed so that he could keep his balance.... I didn't conveniantly leave out anything. If you would take off your Lakers goggles long enough, you would admit that Kobe was the initiator.
Of corse fouls can be called before the ball is inbounded. The fact that it wasn't is the whole reason this play is being debated.

You're beyond help my friend. You just refuse to understand anything we are trying to say. Your problem is that you have the sequence of events wrong. Bibby grabs Kobe FIRST then Kobe elbows him ACCIDENTALLY while trying to free himself from that HOLD by Bibby.
I have the tape to prove it, but you will still refuse to believe it anyways. So I am moving on. Have a nice offseason.
we can sit here all day and complain about the referees but the bottom line is this:
Sacramento missed 14 free throws
Sacramento was in a position to determine their own destiny
Sacramento's top player Chris Webber disappeared when they needed him most
Sacramento constantly is flopping hoping to get a call from the same referees that they are complaining about
whatever happened to good sportsmanship?
the Lakers have been knocked out of the playoffs two years in a row via the sweep but went on
crying about missed chances and opportunities only opens the wound again (see the Portland Trail Blazers board), accept what you cannot change and show some class.

That comment really shows that you have class. I thought we were trying to keep the rude trolls off of this board...?
Bibby was resting his arm on Kobe's hip and then Kobe brought up his elbow and hit him in the face in anticipation that Bibby would hold him back, which basically forced Bibby to hook him by the placement of their arms. You can look at the tape as many times as you want. However, all you have to do is ask any non- Laker fan what happened to get a real account of the events that took place. I actually think it should have been a double foul.
Your attempts to "wish me a good offseason" are useless becuase I am not really a Sacramento fan. I asked to moderate that board, and I put up the avatar to fit. So just to let you know, those snide remarks don't hurt.... Keep up with the verbal attacks, but just know that these opinions are coming from a non-objectional point of view. If you can't handle a different opinion then maybe you are the one who is "beyond help".
Prico, no one here is crying about anything. You listed a bunch of facts, which looks really cool, but they are useless because I'm not trying to argue that the Kings got screwed by the refs in game 7. Nice try....
This thread is a perfect example of what I like to see...good honest hatred!
Seriously, if this thread was on the Laker board on (well-known, well-worn fan site ), it would have been edited beyond repair. It's okay to smack each other a little bit, but not too much...as long as there are no personal attacks, and ultimate respect between posters, it's okay...
By the way, did any of you catch Tom Tolbert's act on CNBC after the game yesterday?
The boob was actually giving an opinion on who he believed was going to win the fight tonight...the ******* can't even figure out who's going to win a basketball series!
Again my orginal comment was that they didn't call a foul on Bibby on that play contrary to what one poster said. It was a no-call and just one brief look at the tape shows you this.
No baiting here and your comment about "class" doesn't bother me one bit. It's an internet message board for crying out loud. i need not impress you with my "class". My offseason comment still applies to you unless you're a Nets fan. This is my last post in this thread as I have already said I am moving on.

Well, I'm a Bulls fan so I have been able to enjoy 2 3-peat's in my life. You may be a Lakers fan now, but since you are only about 13 years-old these are probably the only happy tmes you have had in your pre-puberty life.
You are a very gracious winner.....
Jemel, I don't know what the tape shows and it isn't very important to me. The fact is that the Lakers get the majority of the calls in their favor. No debating that...
Oh yeah, it isn't envy either. More like, a fan that would like to see a fairly officiated game...
What was it that you said "I thought we were trying to keep the rude trolls off of this board...?" How do you make that kind of comment and resort to name calling ? Just a case of pot calling kettle ?
I am trying to leave this thread but you're making it very hard for me, sir.
