Gillick's fault. His pass on Torrence was fair but why did he cut back to the inside? Foolish move, he should have stayed to the outside and used his momentum to swing wide. He just tried to bump Jackson out of the way (who wasnt that wide). Gillick has no one to blame but himself for allowing himself to be in such a bad position.

Folks know nothing
CROOKED lane draw. David was 2nd seed & given the 3rd worst lane. On a low bank like this, top seeds should get 5-6
His move on Jamaal was hardnosed, but I've seen worse. Bershawn was high on the lane, and there was room. David pulled the same move at AVIVA a couple weeks before when he was given space.
Contact was incidental at worst. This isn't ballroom dancing. If anything, it was Bershawn's fault (went to go wide, tried to come back in after David took the rail)

Gillick is the only world-level 400 runner who lumbers

chris brown holy shit he looks different

@Raindeerdays1511 can't cut on the inside like that.

Gillick got cut off horribly. Official didn't call that?!

Granted I know almost nothing about indoor athletics, but Gillick looks like an oafish dick. Glad he didn't get a medal for such a retarded effort.

@palestine517 Other way around! Bershawn was running on the line then cut and leaned in (taking advantage of the banked turns) as Ireland was passing. The officials screwed this one up or it could just be a technicality.

coach always says cut in on the OUTSIDE!

Is it me or did that say chrisbrown thumbs up if its just me
Had Bershawn not been in the way, it would have been a two horse race on the basis of Davids momentum coming into the home straight. But I still think Chris would have won coz he looked so relaxed. Unfortunate but not the end of the world, Davids improved an awful lot & looks good for Barca in August. Well done Chris & big congrats to the Cuban & Torrance for coming through on the outside.

There was no gap on the inside to go for so David ended up bumping into a fatigued Bershawn. Maybe David should have gone outside Bershawn but panicked when he heard the Cuban coming through, thinking hed get sandwiched.
