![]() Have to say that Gallo should have been positioning himself to box out for the rebound on that one. He is not the only culprit, and to be honest, I've seen him boxing out many times before, but it is a major problem in the league, and boxing out should have been a priority for him at that time. He should have picked out #11 and been hipping and "arming" him out of position to get the rebound.
Gallo got the ball with 4.1 seconds left, and where he was standing gave #11 a clear path to the basket. If the ball hit the rim and comes into his hands, he had a clear path for a put-in. Gallo goes to block the shot, a reflex move, and we have a tradtional 3 point play possibility, or #11 snatches the rebound and quickly kicks it out for another 3 pt. attempt. Yeah, I'm being picky, but that is how you win, or lose, games. No man is happy without a delusion of some kind. Delusions are as necessary to our happiness as realities- C.N. Bovee

I re-watched it a couple of times and Kleiza puts a Moving Block/screen?? on Gallo and knocks him silly. Should have been an foul call right there. Gallo didn't look all together after the block and you are right. Should have been boxing out. I don't see how the officials called so many fouls on Timo and then let Kleiza get away with his moving screen/block. The difference between fiction and reality? Fiction has to make sense.
