2 seconds or 2 minutes - time does not matter - a foul is a foul. shooter has the right to jump in ANY angle to acquire a shot. the defender must be straight up and down to assume proper defense position. a shooter drawing a foul from an improper defensive stance? never happens right?

because Terry attacked in an angle, he IS at fault. though, I will give that the referee probably did not have the proper angle to view legitimate contact. Billups did well to sell the call, and he got. Other superstars do that all the time, including Terry. It's part of the game.

If the other official, in better view angle, saw something different, he could've overruled the official, but it did not happen.
Honestly, that one play shouldn't justify the outcome of the game anyway. Mavericks let Birdman walk all over them -- it's a team fault, not the referee's.

Magic had quite the game beyond the arc last night against the Kings. An NBA record 23 3s made as they won 139-107.

Magic had 7 players in double-digits
Superman-25pts, 15boards(8-10 FG, 9-11 FT)
Nelson-23pts, 11asts(5-5 from 3, in 26 mins)
Lewis-19pts(3-5 from 3, in 26 mins)
Hedo-17pts, 8asts(3-5 from 3)
J.J.-15pts(4-7 from 3)
Bogans-12pts(4-6 from 3)
Lee-11pts(1-1 from 3, in 11 mins)

62.2% from 3(23-37)

I knew they were a good FT shooting team, but dang.

Think Kevin Martin is pissed? lol

"It'll be the last time somebody comes in here and then plays like that and us not give at least a good effort," he said in the postgame reflection Tuesday. "That's not even team basketball. There was nothing fun about that, and we've got a game tomorrow. I'm talking about the last time us not give an effort like that. That's me being on the court and getting in guys' stuff and if other guys get mad or whatever you want to call it, that's fine. But we won't come out there like that again."

Question: How can you be so sure?

Answer: Because I'm going to play hard and it's going to start with me. And if other guys are not playing hard, then coach Natt's going to see that, including myself. It's time to start making people accountable because that was just an embarrassment tonight.
