With out being bias, does anybody else think that LEE got a home team break on that call

He did not take the charge the right way. If he went down right away, I think they would have given it to him. Instead he took a hop backwards, landed on the semicircle and only then went down. Don't forget that Lee is an all star and its about time we saw some calls really go our way on the garden floor

With the early game screw jobs we were getting..... did anyone even care if Lee got a break? Usually I do. But to see Billups with like 15 FTAs in the first half? Our entire team with 3 or 4 fouls at halftime? Something wasn't on the level there.

So...that was payback.

And, as said, Smith didn't take the charge properly. He was moving. I hate that crap anyway. You shouldn't be able to just throw yourself in the way of a player in motion and draw a charge. It's bogus. Same as an offensive player seeking out a defender and throwing himself into him and getting a blocking call in his favor.

I know both of those are that one big grey area open to interpretation but jeez...most are clear cut IMO.

Lee caught a break that they reversed the call, but it was borderline to begin with and could've been called a block too. I am just surprised they reversed the call.
