I'm surprised J.R. didn't ask him to set a pick.

J.R. probably thought he was actually doing something smart.
"Hey, I was trying to catch them napping."

Yall act like anybody on the court couldn't have called a timeout, including the Nugget's bench. The ref actually gave them a second to do so before he handed the ball to Jeff Green. That's on the entire Nugget's team and "coach" Dantley who just sits over there and watches the game. The players don't respect him as any kind of authority. I saw JR Smith literally check himself into the game after halftime. It's possible they have a preestablished routine like "come in after 6 minutes," or come in to match James Harden, but it still struck me as strange because Smith didn't shoot around after the half, he spent the entire half and portion of 3rd quarter with a trainer getting his lower body stretched then literally got up from it and ran to the scorer's table.

There is no injury timeout rule in the NBA. The refs can't call a timeout for them.

JR....
1st - he never called a timeout, and kept playing....
2nd - after he gets called for the travel, he points to melo, as if it was his fault....
and at the commentators...
'anthony out on the floor, what is he doing??'
seriously?
hes obviously not hurt....

You gotta call time-out if you see one of your teamates laid out on the floor. I don't care if dude is an absolute clown, you don't know if he's really hurt or not. Plus, what's the purpose of playing 4 on 5 ball.

WTH? Did you not see what happened? With Josh Smith on your team the odds are always in your favor.

This video is disturbing, neither teams called time out, and Melo could've gotten stepped on. SMH

Why should an official have to call a timeout if your player/teammate is laying on the floor? The rest of the Nuggets on the floor didn't even quit playing...

^i wouldnt blame OKC for not calling a timeout, but they could have at least told Denver to stop the play instead of just running around melo, although i have to admit i did chuckle at that.

Yes, but can't they stop the game though? They stop the game if there's a players bleeding even a little bit for a 'safety' reason, right? Damn shame at everyone not responding quickly when he went down like that. Who knows? We could've seen another Hank Gathers. Stupid 'Earl' Smith looking like putting a blame on Melo for his traveling

It's a matter of policy genius. It looks as if they really don't give a ###! if a player gets injured durin play, but they better make sure they aint wearin jeans and white tees on the sideline.Originally Posted by Nowitness41Dirk

I'm surprised that no one called timeout on BOTH sides. Regardless of them bein ur opponent, u don't wanna see anybody hurt. Now if Durant tripped over him and broke his foot, they'd be upset. They have TV timeouts, just exhaust one of them while he's bein tended to.

I don't know... Maybe so a guy that's unconscious and laying on the floor doesn't get stampeded upon and forced into a coma..... Are you serious? Player safety should always come first...

IDK whether to believe he was really hurt (wasn't even grimacing while laying down) or if he was just full of %$+% tryin' to show em up.
