Two of the incorrect non-calls involved Harden but a pivotal non-call with 10.1 seconds left was ruled to have been correct.

In that sequence, Harden put up a 3-pointer with 10.1 seconds left that could have tied the game. There was no foul called on Golden State's Draymond Green because "Harden (HOU) draws Green (GSW) into the air during his shot attempt. Green jumps in front of Harden and would have missed him if Harden hadn't extended his legs."

The incorrect non-calls occurred with 1:10.6, 51.9 seconds and 5.2 seconds remaining.

The first involved a turnover by Harden in which he stepped on the baseline. The report said that a foul should have been called on Golden State's Stephen Curry.

"(Review) shows that Curry (GSW) is moving laterally into Harden's (HOU) path and that the contact causes Harden to go out of bounds," the report said.

With 51.9 seconds left, Golden State's Klay Thompson made a move toward the basket and took a jumper. The report said Thompson should have been called for traveling.

"Thompson (GSW) slides his pivot foot at the end of his dribble," according to the report.

After Harden missed the tying 3-point shot with 10.1 seconds left, there was a scramble for the loose ball. Houston's Eric Gordon was ruled to have stepped out of bounds with 5.2 seconds left. The report said Curry should have been called for a foul.

"(Review) shows Curry (GSW) makes contact with Gordon's (HOU) arm, affecting his ability to secure the ball," the report said.

The referees aren't going to call those ticky tack fouls in the closing minutes of a playoff game. And if they started doing it, the games would be much less enjoyable.

If the foul is egregious or blatantly obvious, call it. If it's largely incidental... swallow that whistle.

Does the league report include all the times Harden stepped over the line shooting his gifted FTs?

If not, report needs to be fixed.

Amazing.

3 huge calls going one team's way in the last 2 minutes of a game.


Anyone rooting for GSW has lost the good nature of themselves.

One can automatically call BS on this report. The incident where Harden and Draymond came into contact at the end of the 4th quarter should properly be called neither a foul on Draymond nor a non-call

But as soon as Beverley starts playing some sort of defence these bitches on the Warriors sprint to show a video to the league. :oldlol:

Most stacked team of all time wanting to be cuddled by the refs, disgraceful.

You don't change the damn rules of the game because of how much time is left on the damn clock. That is how you get some gray area bullshit that is up to the whim of the official. Players don't know how physical they can be and not be if you do that.

Orlando Magic is being surprisingly retarded in this matter.

Was this non-call also incorrect on the Curry 3-pointer?

The difference between the two is that Steph rarely flops in that situation. He didn't fall down nor did he complain about it.

It's also hilarious that Harden compared his shot to Kawhi's. Kawhi actually landed BACKWARDS while Harden lands 2-3 feet forward.

This was a good non call.
