Just watched that clip at about the 1:20 mark when the same guy gets called for the USF. How the hell can that be USF? He was late, clumsy and may have slipped but the ref was 100% wrong with that call.

He took the guys legs out....even if it was an accident, IMHO, definitely USF.

If it was an accident, how can his actions be unsportsmanlike? I agree it looked bad but it wasn't entirely his fault.

Because he was late and he slipped.

For those exact reasons, he didn't make a decent attempt at the ball, hence unsportsmanlike.

I don't like the term, but that's it.

He made a late attempt to draw a charge, no malice involved at all. The ref only looked at the awkward landing, not the actual foul. Bad call.

Wow, that was pretty uncalled for. Almost as uncalled for as naming your team the Burger King Whoppers.

No play for the ball, ugly foul = unsportsmanlike. Pretty weak attack on the fan. Give him an Artest suspension.

Correct call, very dangerous indeed. And I actually felt it to be deliberate.

I realise he didn't make a play for the ball but he didn't make a play for the man either, therefore, not USF.

A dangerous action such as that, whether intentional or not will alsways be deemed and USF.

As for his attack on the spectator, what a tool! Throw the book at him I say!

So we're not allowed to try and draw an offensive foul then?

Exactly, with Dicko and others interpretation of an unsportsmanlike the game will only go backwards.
