Arbitration Analyst: “Five serious mistakes against Panathinaikos in the last 2:13 with Efes”

Justifies him Panathinaic For his intense protests on refereeing in Game 2 of the playoffs against Efes the Todd Warnik. The former Israeli international referee and current arbitration analyst speaking to Basketnews He found not one or two, but five serious mistakes at the expense of the “green” in the last 2:13 of Thursday’s match.

Initially, he says that 2:13 before the endthere is a foul on Nan’s shot by Willis who is not whistled, as Efes’ forward “… … does not jump vertically and comes out of the cylinder, having illegal contact with Nan”

After the reset that emerged from Poirier’s cap, to 2:11 before the endthere was the infamous phase of the technical penalty that Grand was charged because he was found to have stretched his leg to foul. “This is incomprehensible in every respect. Is it the first referee to take the whistle in such a good position to judge that it is a violation of Grand and not Thompson? In fact, the referee coming from the outside begins to make a move to give the foul, but then lowers his hand. While Grand spreads his leg slightly, Thompson is not in a vertical position and is in the Grand cylinder, whether he suggests his leg or not. It’s a foul of Thompson. Why is it a technical penalty? It is not a non -contact phase or non -athletic behavior and it is certain that there is contact. A technical penalty, under the regulation, is not even related to the phase. Whether it’s an aggressive foul and doesn’t count the basket, because the ball is still in the hands of the shooter when the contact is, or it is a foul by Thompson, who is also the suggested choice”

In 37 ” before the endin Larkin’s three -point leading Efes to +3, Todd Warnik discerns a violation. “The referees should learn the movement of his feet because he is not legal. Larkin catches the ball on his left foot and then makes right-left-right. This is steps“, He notes.

In 25 ” for the finale “… We can see Larkin touch Nan’s hand in an effort for three points. We see the shooter complaining but nothing”

And, finally, in the phase they shout at Panathinaikos for Poirier’s foul on Nan in a three -point attempt at 6 ” before the endstates: ‘Polire extends his hand out of his cylinder and has clear irregular contact with Nan’s hand. This is not the so-called “high-5” when as the regulation says, the shooter and the defender jump vertically and their hands come into contact. It is an important part at the end of the game that requires the involvement of both the external referee and the first in Baseline, who have a better picture of Poirier’s contact with Nan’s hand“
