"You won't see that call again. That, I guarantee you," Van Gundy said. "You will not see, with the game on the line, a 3-second call in the last 10 seconds. That's part of the reason they're 30-1 at home. They're a very good team, and when you get calls like that [expletive], you're in pretty good shape."
Let's be honest, a 3 seconds call, with under 10 ticks in the game? How about a 3 second call at any point in the game?
ESPN showed the clip, with a little timer in the bottom right. The sissies that they are proved that he was technically in the lane for 3 seconds. However, he was on his way out. And, as SVG would further lament, that happened to be the first 3 second call of the whole game.
I'd say that's a bit ridiculous to make that kind of call at the end of the game. Far as I see it, Howard would have to be in there for six or seven seconds at least to make that call. When it's that close to the end of the game, and that call hasn't already been established prior in the contest, the violation needs to be egregious.
That's just me, though.
And, I got a kick out of Van Gundy's use of the word expletive.
