The video below was taken from the Celtics vs. Trailblazers game last week in Portland. I guess the Trailblazers took a page out of Bill Belicheat's game plan: if you can't beat 'em, then cheat.
For those of you who might be a little slow, Portland comes out of a timeout with six guys on the court. Naturally, they get an easy dunk, since it's pretty hard for the five Celtics defenders to cover six guys. When Kevin Garnett points this out to the ref, they give the Celtics a free throw. Huh? Am I missing something here? The Trailblazers score an illegal basket using six guys and when it's pointed out to the officials they let the basket stand but give the Celtics a free throw. If that's the case then why isn't this six guys on the court at a time used more often?
