Message: [QUOTE="PhanTom, post: 2327800, member: 1120"] [INDENT][INDENT] [I](6) A deliberately-thrown elbow or any attempted physical act with no contact involved. [/I] [B]How about the elbow to the throat that Griner threw late in the game being ignored by the "Three Blind Mice"? [/B] After Coach Miller got the attention of the refs, they did review the play, but I wonder if they were limited to reviewing whether it was a Flagrent 2. Clearly it was a deliberate thrown elbow that may not have made much contact, but it was certainly beyond the extent of a normal, legal basketball play as far as the elbow. [B][/B][/INDENT][/INDENT] [I]Lisa Borders (sitting courtside for this one) must consider both the rule book and the demographic at these games and make a strong statement to the supervisor of officials about this behavior. This behavior is not good for the league and it is steadily getting worse (and not just from Taurasi. [B]I believe all three officials should be banned for the rest of the playoffs for not issuing a Technical to Diana, just for that part of her full court rant at the woman official as play went back down court, and DT was throwing a fit along with her normal F Bombs. I believe the ref told her to shut up, and of course she did not. [/B][/I] [/QUOTE]
