As an @Avalanche fan, this has the be THE MOST pathetic series in playoff history for me. They went from the best team to the most embarrassing franchise in a matter of games. Ashamed to be a season ticket holder right now. Maybe I’ll feel differently tomorrow.
@agentdexy97 ✌️big dawg. Didn’t realize money was so important to someone that already makes a shit ton of money.. and that’s coming some someone who was a professional athlete at one point #DoItForTheLoveOfTheSport
Wait wait wait…. So let me get this straight… @agentdexy97 is going to basically ball out on the Giants during an era where they were NOT good and now all of a sudden when the change y’all so desperately needed has finally come, you wanna leave because of money??… okay SMDH
Every time the Knicks potentially have a chance to make to the finals, here comes another team that magically gets in their way… SMGDH… at this point should’ve just kept Thibs….
At some point when reviewing plays, the league should consider adding a speed threshold for anything involving the element of time.
When you slow plays down to 1/100th the speed, it distorts what actually happened and makes it look like, in this case, Cooks possessed the ball for seconds prior to losing it. The game is not played in slow motion or frame by frame.
For a catch:
A) Secure control of the ball ✅
B) Two feet down in bounds ✅
C) After (a) and (b) have been fulfilled, clearly performs any act common to the game (e.g., extend the ball forward, take an additional step, tuck the ball away and turn upfield, or avoid or ward off an opponent), or he maintains control of the ball long enough to do so.
C is where there is a judgement needed since A and B are clearly met. Now consider this note to the rule:
If a player, who satisfied (a) and (b), but has not satisfied (c), contacts the ground and loses control of the ball, it is an incomplete pass if the ball hits the ground before he regains control, or if he regains control out of bounds.
Because Cooks did lose control of the ball when he contacted the ground and the ball never contacted the ground, it was ruled an interception by Denver.
