Holy shite that's a perfect block.



Putting your hands straight up does not mean you're vertical.

Biyambo went straight up. It was clean.
He did not. He was moving forward.

It was a foul even thought it was a great play. He fouled him with his body. You cannot jump forward and make body contact with the offensive player. You have to jump straight up and land in your own footprint.


I'll take the former professional coaches explanation over yours and he absolutely said it was clean.

Rule of verticality.

You can go straight up and if there is body contact but all ball, it's not a foul. Contact almost always initiated by the offensive player in those cases

There is no possible way to get calls that are this obvious wrong and not be on the take.



Easy to say when you're watching on TV from multiple camera angles

Yeah I mean it was a nasty block, but he fouled him with the body. As you've pointed out, he jumped from left of center of the restricted area and blocked the shot near the edge of the goal on the right side. If his body doesn't make contact, a no call and legit block would have been the proper call.

Foul or not, Toronto still picked up momentum there.

They can take away Biyombo's block, but they can't take away the gif of Lebron getting stuffed

JVG often says things a fan would say when he broadcasts games. He knows that going by the rules that it was a foul.

It changed directions off the guys hand with the ref right there

don't need multiple angles for a clean block when there's a clear view

they didn't see any of the fouls Cleveland had until halfway through 2nd quarter?

That's the case if you jump up and land in your own footprint.

That doesn't apply when you jump forward no matter how straight up your arms are.

Depends on what version you're talking about. On the album, it's all Drake. The single has Kanye and Jay Z

Cavs played zero defense so it's hard to foul someone
