Goaltending to win the game

Postby ignatu on Sat Jan 18, 2003 12:35 pm

A last second 3 ties the game. Old Man Jordan takes a 3...misses wildly...but the basket is scored and we win!!!

The situation is exciting. Lakers (with MJ added) beat Sac in game 4 of the west conf finals 113-110 on a last second 3 by MJ. But the shot missed. The replay shows what happened...Weber touched the ball on the rebound, and it was called goaltending.

This happened to me once in NBA Live 2002, when I rebounded a last second shot and it was called goaltending against me.

The ball is clearly below the rim, after having bounced off for the miss. It hit the backboard first, then the rim, bounced off and on the rebound goaltending is called. In both cases it was the last second shot for a 3.

A fortunate or unfortunate bug, depending which team you are controlling. :wink:
