Reed and Glenn sold that to the ref.

And the Warriors too. They looked pretty forlorn.

For the last time, it was ref's call, not benefit of the doubt. The referee said that he only referred it to make sure Reed didn't drop it, so obviously he saw the ball on the ground.

What is? The lack of a conclusive camera angle? Annoying, but ref's call is there as an option for a reason.

edit: How can any of you conclusively say he didn't get it down? The referee thought he did, and he got a much better view than any of us did.

If the ref saw the ball down he would have given it right away. I reckon he's given the try BOTD but really, most people would agree he is far more likely to have been held up there.

That kind of call really gives me the shits, so illogical.

There's no need to speculate; he said he had doubt about whether Reed had controlled it. I don't see how anyone can be confident it wasn't a try.

How good has Norman been this year? Very impressive for a guy with the biggest question mark over his head at the start of the year.
