With one second remaining in overtime of the Chicago Bulls-Toronto Raptors game on January 16, officials called a foul on Chicago’s Joakim Noah as Toronto’s Amir Johnson gathered the ball while driving to the basket. The officials ruled the foul was on the floor but upon review at the league office, the video replay confirmed that the foul should have been called a shooting foul with Johnson receiving two free throws.

Also the game winner by Deng was a clear push off foul as well



Such is the life for Raptors fans. Not to mention Scott Foster was a ref in this game.

Foster is the official who received 134 phone calls from disgraced referee Tim Donaghy between October 2006 and April 2007, as originally reported by FOX News. That was the same period during which Donaghy admitted to betting on NBA games. The report said that Donaghy called Foster more than any other ref and that he didn’t call any other official more than 13 times

Conspiracy Theory Time!!

Um...Am I the only one who doesn't even see the foul Noah was called for? Hell, all I see is a clear out by Amir Johnson.
