Yesterday, the Lakers and Suns had a mid-season tournament with a controversial penalty decision.
Today, the NBA officially issued a referee report for the last two minutes.
According to the report, there were 3 miscalculations:
1: In the last 1 minute and 34 seconds of the game, Suns player Grayson Allen hit Reaves' arm when defending him, affecting his ball, which was a foul and was not whistled.
2: In the last 44 seconds of the game, Durant fouled James and blew it out.
3: In the last 43 seconds, after James missed a layup, Davis was fouled by Nurkic for a layup, which was not blown by the beater.
The implication is that the final 2 minutes of blowing penalties were all against the Lakers, and the Lakers' most controversial timeout in the final minute was officially determined to be no problem.
Whether the referee's report is meaningful or not, this is a matter of opinion, after all, the result is impossible to modify.
But today, Brother Di would like to talk about his personal views on this controversial event.
Although, no matter what I say, I will probably be scolded. So, let's make two simple points.
First, the phrase "escorting the Lakers", don't open your mouth.
It doesn't mean the whole game, it's just a ball, it's 48 minutes and I don't like to complain about the penalty. ”
I personally prefer Durant's expression.
If the league could have guaranteed it, the New York Knicks would have won the championship long ago, a megacity team.
Instead of arguing, struggling, and complaining about the final penalty, it is more important to look at the problems that you have fully exposed and think about how to solve them.
In this game, I hope more fans will see that the Lakers' willingness to win as a team, especially the determination and dedication on the defensive end, they deserve this victory.
What impressed me was not just the back-to-back kills that James took over the game in the final quarter, but the contributions of non-star players like Reddish, Vanderbilt, and Prince on the defensive end.
Vanderbilt's frontcourt rebounds, Reddish's blockade of Booker, and the sweep of the interior core Dad.
It was a game that fully demonstrated the Lakers' defensive ability at the front.
The Suns' weakness is on full display in this playoff-intensive contest: no one directs traffic. If there is a Dream Chasing Green ** at the top of the arc, the Suns will win the ball yesterday.
The team didn't have a good point guard, so the two big brothers had to take turns standing up.
I have to say that the Grim Reaper is indeed horizontal, and the Lakers can't fix it.
However, Booker was a little confused in the face of this hardness, including his ability to shoot the ball and the lack of absolute physical ability, which was exposed.
I think that was the main reason why the Suns lost, not the referees.
Second, whether it is a commentator, a commentator, or a **person, the expression of this group is important.
After yesterday's game, why did it cause so much controversy?One of the main reasons is that people don't understand the rules.
Why can James call a timeout as a non-ball handler?Is it a shady alliance and escort?
I think it's very normal for people to have this idea, because the non-ball handler shouts a timeout, which is relatively rare in basketball, either the ball handler shouts or the coach shouts.
Ordinary fans, they don't have that much time to do their homework, it's not their job, at most, after lunch, they have nothing to do to watch the game, it's a way to relax and have fun.
You can't ask a fan to have such a strong business ability.
However, the expressions of commentators and sports ** people in the live broadcast will affect the judgment of fans and will easily bring the rhythm of fans.
Why can James call a timeout?
NBA rules allow.
"A request for a time-out by a coach or player will only be allowed if the ball is dead or the ball is under the control of the player of the team that made the request for timeout, otherwise it will be ignored. ”
Therefore, the controversy of the final ball should not be whether Lao Zhan can call a timeout, but whether Reeves controls the ball when he calls a timeout.
If it is determined through slow motion that Xiaoli still controls the ball, there is nothing wrong with the referee giving the Lakers a timeout.
This point can be discussed, after all, it is difficult to define between electric and flint.
But if it's because of James, who knows the rules well, I can't understand it.
There are many differences between the rules of the NBA and FIBA, and those who are interested can learn more.
A non-ball-handler like James calling a timeout is not the only one in my memory.
In 2015, Jeremy Lin was still in Charlotte.
The Raptors and Hornets played to the final moment, DeRozan hit a long-range three-point "lore", who expected Lowry to call a timeout at the moment before DeRozan made a move, and his teammates ruined Azan's stunt.
In 2021, the game between the Warriors and the Hornets also reached the final moments, Wernermaker jumped with a three-ball ball, Hayward fell to the ground holding the ball, and PJ Washington on the court called a timeout, and the referee gave the Hornets a timeout.
So, in the NBA, when the ball is dead or when a team is in possession of the ball, the coach and players on the court can request a timeout.
This is the rule, open your mouth and spray, black for the sake of black, there is no point.
By the way, yesterday's game was actually very exciting.
