Derrick Rose Flies Across the Lane for the Block

[CrucialCritics]

Wait, the ball touched the backboard before rose touched it...isn't that supposed to be goaltending?

[nydanii]

isnt that a goaltend because the ball hit the backboard first?

[ricaballa]

@nydanii sometimes they let it off because its fun to watch for the fans

[kantwu]

@ricaballa Yeah, which is why I don't want the shitty league.

[DxG010]

Im a D-Rose fan, but it was a goaltend, if the ball hits the backboard first before someone blocks it even if the ball is still going up, its considered a goaltend. I guess from the Refs angle he didnt notice that. Anyway D-Rose got bunnies as u can see.

[TheTonyMontanah]

block...block? more like goaltend!

[tjm2037]

@TheTonyMontanah ball was still goin up

[EnvyMeGkB]

Hmm def a goaltend, hit the backboard first!

[MrNuk3d]

Refs sucks in nba, definetly a goaltend,

[tjm2037]

@MrNuk3d no ur jus drunk

[MrNuk3d]

@tjm2037 If ball hits board, you cant blocked it anymore, its caled goaltending.

[chasekewl]

Yeah, that should of been goal tending?

[dmacattack23]

It was sick but it was goaltending

[EmperorPaul23]

Nice but it was a clear goaltending...

[SmooveDoctor]

@EmperorPaul23 Ball was still going up.

Kobe in his prime will whoop any guard.

[tjm2037]

@EmperorPaul23 no evry1 says goaltend is jus a rose hater

[chakdeindiasidd]

@tjm2037 regardless if its going up if the ball hits the backboard before its touched than its a goaltend

[TheMrKahly]

MVP!!! MVP!!! MVP!!!

[AdosoTV]

the ball was not above the cylinder and still on its way up.. therefore clearly not a galtend.. dumbasses

[Mitsuru345]

@AdosoTV THANK YOUUUU :D FINALLY SOMEONE WHO KNOOWS 8D

[TheStrengthinArms]

CLEARLY GOALTENDING! But None the Less Awesome! Chauncy was pretty far ahead and rose still caught up.

I Think DRose should be Called FLASH not Dwade

[gusimoes]

@TheStrengthinArms Goaltending? the ball was going up.. Do you even know what a goaltending is?

[stupidpwner123]

@gusimoes its a goaltend cuz it hit the backboard first which is a goaltend...

[gusimoes]

@stupidpwner123 if the ball hits the backboard under the rim it's not a goaltending if it hist the backboard above the rim is goaltending...

[xenx619]

@pcraider the ball never went over the rim, so it was obviously still on its way up. It was a legal block. I don'y think the NBA channel would show goaltending highlights

[dogwalkanimations]

@xenx619 it hit the backboard first = automatic goaltend...

[6575joshua]

That was SICK!!!!!!!!!!!!

[CommentingWhitey]

Is anyone else sick of seeing the top comment on every basketball video being about the short guy who can dunk?

[dorovu]

@CommentingWhitey maybe a malware

[gusimoes]

@CommentingWhitey Search the white midget no hands dunk...

[PancakesoftheLove]

Not goaltending.

It touched the backboard below rim level. Regulation clearly states it has to be above ring level (regardless of upward/downward flight) when it touches the backboard in order for it to be considered a goaltend.

Haters need to stop drinking that haterade.

[drakedoggy103]

@PancakesoftheLove you are soo right ! :D haterade ;D haha

[M0nkeyBar]

Goal tendeing



[MajaLeeg]

The refs (*shuddering as I say this*) got the no-call right. That ball was clearly BELOW RIM LEVEL and STILL GOING UP.

[Ovito85]

goal tending

[angryboy951]

shut the fuck up bitch

[angryboy951]

i like rose but this was goaltending

[NewKJT]

@angryboy951 BELOW. RING. LEVEL

[natedaug1]

@angryboy951 it hit the backboard, that was goaltending.

[angryboy951]

@natedaug1 duh

[natedaug1]

@angryboy951 Not, duh, because they did not call it. So it is not obvious.

[angryboy951]

@natedaug1 yeah but you could see that it was goaltending unless you are blind

[natedaug1]

@angryboy951 Well in that case then the officials are blind and half the comments on here are by blind people. Lots of people don't think it was goal tending on here. So I don't think it is obvious to many people.

[drewgilchrist]

that shit was goal tend LMAO!

[112sangwoo112]

@drewgilchrist it was below ring level...

[jc8861]

the ball hit the glass first, it is a goal attend.

[oceanside1322]

everyone always talks about lebrons blocks does anyone know how many time rose has chased them down and block the shit out of them a bunch of times d rose is the shit

[Aaronimo5]

M.V.P.



[seadoofan83]

WATCH OUT LAMEBRON! D' ROSE COMING TO A BLOCK NEAR YOU! MVP!

P.S. Kobe still blows!

[cyclontzy]

[ahmetckmk]

i want to be a nigger

[oceanside1322]

@ahmetckmk lol

[andrewp303]

[krisalex18]

MVP!

[MrProfessor89]

LBJ does this shit all the time. and better too!

[seadoofan83]

@MrProfessor89 all the time that's why he is lame. Also what is even more lame Lamebron taking the final shot in every quarter!

[schoolwell]

that nigga was flying...

[TdotJohn]

man he stayed in the air for soooooooo long!! and ye @gearsdan ur fuckin retarded

[ghettodudefrmdahoodz]

he wasnt ganna make the layup anyway

[Basketormii]

oh !! my godness !! O_O

[Auto0725]

Goaltending. Stupid refs. Derrick Rose is still my favorite player to watch in the NBA tho.

[skill5423]

Derrick rose for MVP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[56shabus]

...how come every NBA youtube video I go to, I see a KOBE vs..(Derrick, Lebron, Michael, etc.)? ..so childish.

[davidcNeugenel]

wtf, how do you work for the nba and not know that was goaltending

[davidcNeugenel]

wtf, how do you work for the nba and not know thats a block .

[ugotcrossed23]

watch your back michael, there's a new high-flyer in chicago and his name is DERRICK ROSE!!!

[hereforthemusic93]

DERRICK ROSE = ROCKETEER

[Pur3xOwNaGe]

off the glass block = goaltending?

[ShShill]

DERRICK ROSE-EVERYBODY

[leandror19]

it was nice but it wasn't going in anyway :)

[gearsdan]

DERRICK ROSE > KOBE BRYANT

[Brad633]

@gearsdan the only reason you would say something like that is cause kobe is the best or you thought he was. He is the ultimate comparison. Compliment to kobe.

[gearsdan]

@Brad633 Kobe is the best...until Derrick Rose stepped up to the plate and showed that he wants the championship this year. even though Kobe has an injured finger, its no excuse for the Lakers to slack it. To me, it just looks like they dont want that championship this year. Last nights game with the Clipps was terrible. Oh and Griffin BABY!

[crazydude75044]

@gearsdan

hellllll no not even close

[gearsdan]

@crazydude75044 the fuck? hell yeah...LAKERS DONT WANT THAT 3 PEAT

[DemonXY2J]

@gearsdan 7 years olds shouldnt be on youtube brah

[gearsdan]

@DemonXY2J I know right? better check your grammar structure "7 years old" LMFAO

[loplification]

@gearsdan excuse me ?

[gearsdan]

@loplification YOUR EXCUSED

[XxLilBxX1]

@gearsdan Definitely next year he'll be better than everyone in the NBA

[gearsdan]

@XxLilBxX1 most definitely! and Griffin oh boy...cant wait for next years NBA season. too many star players this year with injuries

[jakerbake88]

@gearsdan YOU ARE STUPID

[gearsdan]

@jakerbake88 what a great claim. now please support your claim without the fact you dont know shit about basketball or me. you just made yourself look like an idiot

[SQUIRTLE4EVA]

@gearsdan To be honest, Kobe really is a better player with more experience, but Rose I prefer because I'M FROM CHICAGO BABY

[gearsdan]

@SQUIRTLE4EVA Kobe may have more experience, but as a basketball player, Kobe is out of his prime. he is getting old. this years nba season did show it. people were relying on kobe but he didnt do nothing in the dallas series for the playoffs. derrick rose is younger, faster, and more consistent right now. then again, nowitzki is the greatest perimeter shooter I've ever seen

[SQUIRTLE4EVA]

@gearsdan I am aware, and Kobe is out of his prime, but he still has more experience than Rose. Thats all I'm saying. I love rose. He is an amazing player and chicago is lucky to have him.

[gearsdan]

@SQUIRTLE4EVA I couldnt have agreed more. I mean, I'm a die hard Lakers fan since I was a kid. I was a super die hard Chicago fan as a kid. but this years playoffs, to me Kobe just gave up on his team. He was embarrassed.

[AQWdeathGian]

@gearsdan YOu have a point , but still we all have to agree that bryant is ageing , rose is like what 23?

[royarenas]

Goal tend...

[mursupoika]

@royarenas how its goaltend? wasent goin downwards, or was above the rim :) dosent matter if touches glass

[bkrc123]

was it a goal tend? i don't know, i don't care. it was sick. d rose all day. :D

[bloodyalbo1000]

goaltend

[MustangBaller44]

hey ignorant fucktards. according to nba rules a shot isnt a goaltend unless the ball has reached the apex of its arc. that means the shot is on its way down. this shot wasnt on its way down

[mongooseman457]

@MustangBaller44 you are the fucktard. any ball that has already hit the backboard may not be touched either on its way up or down. shut up. check the highest rated comment before u say anything stupid again. "mustangballer"

[MustangBaller44]

@mongooseman457 umm the highest rated comment isnt calling it a goaltend. learn to read. and even if it was, the highest rated comment proves nothing. look it up. ur the one making a fool out of yourself "mongooseman". i bet youve never even played basketball before fucktard

[mursupoika]

@mongooseman457 as a ref, the ball is goin upwards u can block it, but not if its on rim or above the rim, it dosent matter does it touch glass. only matters if its goin down or it is above the rim.

[thespecialist1003]

damn what a goaltend.

[cashisking98]

AIR ROSE!

[SamuraiTomm]

its goal tending cause it touched glass first.. dumb asses

[xXlAk47killalXx]

D ROSE FOR PRESIDENT!

[TheMusicman429]

sicko  block not goaltending

[Bonifiedpianist]

Good Block, but it was goaltending, the rule is if the ball makes contact with the backboard and if a defensive player touches it, its a goaltend, still Derrick Rose Can Jump Outta The Freaken Gym! haha

[kimbobrand7]

If the ball was above the rim then its goal tend

[dorovu]

goal tending

[Leeejon21]

@dorovu youre stupid

[cashisking98]

@dorovu Are you blind? The ball was still elevating. Clean block by ROSE.

[tomtom2390]

@cashisking98 if the ball hits the backboard first its goaltending cuz if that was the case dwight would block everything

[Ciixu]

i didn't know that shame on me i'm sorry so it's monster block !!! :D

[casalej]

thats the definition of NOT goaltending. D Rose for president

[808xALiVE]

Thats a goaltend.

[miguelfcp01]

goaltending

[Ciixu]

clearly goaltending

[SilentBlackBird911]

@Ciixu Really Not

[iceboy1003]

d. During a field goal attempt, touch a ball after it has touched any part of the backboard above ring level, whether the ball is considered on its upward or downward flight. <-Straight from NBA.com.

yes the ball touched the backboard, BUT BELOW RING LEVEL. stop calling it a goal tend! people, i really dont think the nba would post stuff that aren't legit..

[VoxEOD]

@iceboy1003 unfortunately, a player also shall not "g. During a field goal attempt, touch a ball after it has touched the backboard below the ring level and while the ball is on its upward flight."

So unless that ball was considered not having a chance to make it, making it not a block - sorry d.rose, it's a goaltend

[iceboy1003]

@VoxEOD well obviously the ref has decided that the ball ain't making it, so ref isn't calling it goaltending,

[VoxEOD]

@iceboy1003 in that case, it's not a block either =P

[iceboy1003]

@VoxEOD oh you jerk. LOL. just wanna win this discussion. okay you win! its.. erm.. a denied shot that might not go in. fair? peace peace.

[Ammaculate44]

@iceboy1003 Well, that really goes on what your definition of "Legit," means. Amare hit a shot after the buzzer 3 for the win, but did not count for the lose.

[iceboy1003]

@Ammaculate44 oh i saw that one. i personally feel that it was a shot made in time too. but oh well. refs always wins..

[Ammaculate44]

@iceboy1003 Yup, refs always right.

[carmelony89]

@iceboy1003 it was above rim level anyway watch the dam video

[iGamingVidzz]

@iceboy1003 they posted a chase down block by LeBron goaltend. But it's LeBron.

[mrjorgem]

@iceboy1003 read the next one, idiot. its called a block because the refs missed it. hahaha just because the user "NBA" posted it doesn't mean its legit, its legitimacy is delegated by the fact that the refs missed it

e. During a field goal attempt, touch a ball after it has touched the backboard below the ring level and while the ball is on its upward flight.

[Paradox313]

@iceboy1003

Which is why the NBA posts videos of players traveling every single night...

[123DwyaneWade456]

@iceboy1003 thx lol i didn't know that

[TableJuice]

@iceboy1003

except you left out the next part.....

e. During a field goal attempt, touch a ball after it has touched the backboard below the ring level and while the ball is on its upward flight.

[FiyINeedALife]

@iceboy1003 Technically they show Lebron`s travels.

[skeetajohnson]

He tended the the fuck outta that goal.

[blangblingb]

sorry forgot to include that it say an "NBA player shall not" before all of that

[blangblingb]

d. During a field goal attempt, touch a ball after it has touched any part of the backboard above ring level, whether the ball is considered on its upward or downward flight. <-Straight from NBA.com. Argument terminated :D

[9588alamALI]

THATS MINI LEBRON !

[174HB]

nice leap by Rose, but clearly goaltending

[imilianJ]

have to say it was missing anyway ;)

[justineheartsmac]

i don't care if it was a goaltending, refs were probably in shocked after seeing Derrick Rose flying from almost the free throw line for the block. What point guard does that?!

[ScatterMyTimelyAshes]

@justineheartsmac free throw line? what video were you watching? he jumped from the doted circle

[Hagarheadou812]

@justineheartsmac steve francis... jordan farmar (once on tony parker)... i've seen nate robinson do it a couple of times

[cb4allstar4]

Goaltending!

[rory88888]

its only goal tending if the balls on its way down and why would nba put it on if it was goal tending

[jurix84]

Goaltending

[jurix84]

Goaltending!



[jumper1294]

Goaltending

[KillaCastro6438]

how the f is this goaltending? the ball was on the way up, not down, clean block, derrick rose: basketball superstar

[richkidsmartkid]

NBA Broadcaster = Retard^2

[TheGamer32121]

wow obvious goaltend

[RobTheBernardinosaur]

How is this goaltending? The ball wasn't even gonna go in anyways lol. Derrick rose actually bounced it back

[m0mendez57]

got away with goal tending

[jessdog23]

GGGGGOOOOAAAAALLLLLTTTEEEEENNN­NNDDDDDDDIIIINNNNNGGGGGG!!! though not bymuch considering how far and how quick rose came up

[damnstraightidc]

thats a goaltending violation.

[K3BANG]

yeah wtf cant touch it after it hits the backboard

[PNobleDaTruth]

GOAL TENDING

[benbek27]

IF THE BALL HITS THE BACKBOARD ITS NOT CONSIDERED A SHOT BY GOALTENDING RULES AND TEHREFORE THIS ISNT GOLATENDING

[RazaIsCool]

@benbek27 lmao somebodys a bulls fan...so a layup that hits the backboard isnt considered a shot? a bank shot isnt considered a shot? a post move that hits the backboard isnt considered a shot? if you want to get technical, NBA rules handbook, rule 11 section 1, "A player shall not, during a field goal attempt, touch a ball, which has a chance to score, after it has touched the backboard below the ring level and while the ball is on its upward flight". good hustle by rose, but its goaltending.

[RazaIsCool]

[assahtsao]

@RazaIsCool but i dont really think it matters cause rose jumped before he took the shot so it shouldnt be goaltending.

[RazaIsCool]

@assahtsao so the NBA rulebook should be completely ignored because rose jumped first? ok that makes a lot of sense

[assahtsao]

@RazaIsCool what nba rule book. nobody said that was goaltending. you didnt really see billups complaining...

[RazaIsCool]

@assahtsao the rule book that the rules are based off of, maybe? nobody said its goaltending? m0mendez says goaltending. jessdog says goaltend. damnstraightidc says goaltending. K3BANG says goaltending. PNobleDatruth says goaltending. these are bulls anouncers, of course they arent going to say anything. the guy on the video that said "whoo! derrick rose with a big block" especially loves rose. billups didnt complain? after he got blocked, he looked at the ref with his arms like, like "WTF?!"

[iNspeCtaHHooLiGaN15]

he deserved to get goaltended for traveling lol

[alucryts]

it wasnt goal tending because salmons tips the ball before rose finally erases it. it was a double block lmao

[Oneofakind407]

That's goaltending, you cant touch it after it hits the backboard

[RuckFulezRKO123]

If it was goaltending, I'm pretty sure the refs would have called it. That's something the refs can't mess up for all the money they're being paid.

[jasminmachine]

@RuckFulezRKO123 i dont think the money makes better refs ...

[rjr1990]

Even if it hit the backboard, i think it has to be at an angle to go in the hoop. If rose hadn't touched it, that ball was not going in because it was too low off the backboard. Well at least thats my theory.

[DaTNIGGaQVC]

I HATE TO SAY IT BUT THAT WAS GOALTENDING!

[perfectiondark24]

He hung in the air.

[hypekiidty3]

GOALTENDING IT HIT BACKBOARD FIRST

[LittleFundamental]

ilegal

[dohboyal]

Derrick Rose is the next best point guard. No question.

[yungflyandflashy12]

Goaltending , it hit the backboard before Rose blocked it . Rose Still My Fav Player

[epileptikal]

[mrjones989sagmi1]

That is goaltending!! if it hit backboard first den get blcoked den it's goaltending.. Its also goaltending when da ball come down and gets block

[badmitz]

only goaltending if the ball is coming down.. doesn't matter if it hits the backboard.

[Pa6sago]

is goaltending!

[gtnyang16]

wasnt that a goaltend??

[andrelaiho]

no goatending is when the ball is moving down

[karmascope]

I love people are so sure when they don't know shit. IF YOU LOOK CLOSELY SALMONS BLOCKS IT FIRST THEREFORE NO GOALTENDING.
