Wait. How was that switched to a foul? These refs just handed them the game in the end, nice, great

I think one ref called a jump and the other called a foul.

That JR Smith heave was the difference

I’d like an explanation for the end of that game with a rule that wasn’t just made up on the spot. How do we go from jump ball, to 1 shot and a jump ball, to 2 shots? If anything it should have stayed a jump ball. To my knowledge they never called a flagrant or tech, so how can that turn into a regular foul after review?

That BS is why I'm not a diehard NBA fan of any team. What the h-e-double hockey stick?!

Stephenson put Green into a headlock man. 

[Hovadipo 61,184]

A foul takes precedence over a jump ball? What the hell does that mean?

It was called a jump ball. And somehow it was reversed. NBA isn’t having LeQueen lose in the first round

[Hoosier Guy 8,333]

Words can’t describe how pissed I am. I knew the officials would come into play. It’s still ridiculous though

They called it a foul first. Then they reviewed it and saw Lance take him down WWE style. The "NBA" didn't make Oladipo shoot 5-20 tonight.

Nope. Both hands on the ball then the head lock happened. Refs screwed up, how about LeBron getting the timeout when he clearly got tied up by Turner. Gotta love having the refs in your back pocket

I'm more pissed that he actually came on and said the headlock came before Lance had his hands on the ball.

I mean, he's got his arm wrapped around Jeff Green's neck and then takes him down.

Lance didn’t do anything wrong. Yeah as PG said, LeQueen getting a timeout without possession of the ball. Absolutely atrocious

Nope. Both hands on the ball at the top of the point. Take off the LeBron glasses

Nice job taking screen grabs of what you want it to show.

Here's the full video. Even when Lance has his hands on the ball he's wrapping up Green's arms. Anyway, hard fought game by both teams. I'm excited for game 5. 

 

[KingPG21 6,587]

Vic lost the game still.

 

Would be amazing to get guys who actually know how to call a game professionally. NFL refs are a joke, NBA refs are a joke, MLB umps kind of suck in general, are NHL refs this bad?

As a Pacers fan and a LeBron fan, that was a foul by Lance. Refs should have got it right in the first place.

Pacers really let a golden opportunity slip away tonight.

Now we’re deleting posts for telling the truth? Ok

[KingPG21 6,587]

Lance gets ejected in game 5, its not even in question. I don't think there is a chance he doesn't

It was called a foul on Lance by both refs when it happened, which was obviously the correct call. Somehow Webber and Marv missed that and said it was a jump ball (refs never made that signal), and confused the hell out of everyone. The review was for a potential tech, but nothing ended up being called.
