NBA says there were 4 wrong calls in last 2 minutes of play-in game

The NBA identified four wrong calls in its Last Two Minute Report for the Golden State Warriors-Memphis Grizzlies play-in game.

The NBA reviewed 21 total calls/non-calls from the Warriors’ 121-116 win Tuesday, which secured the No. 7 seed in the West for Golden State.

The first error the NBA identified was a non-call on Draymond Green with 1:29 to go. The NBA said Green should have been assessed a foul, which would have been his sixth, on a reach-in attempt on Scotty Pippen Jr.’s drive. Seconds later, Memphis’ Zach Edey scored a putback the NBA says should have been offensive goaltending.

With under a minute to go, the NBA says refs made the wrong call on Brandin Podziemski’s would-be block on Pippen. The report states Podziemski ‘makes contact with the ball … and any ensuing contact once the ball becomes loose is considered incidental.’ Reggie Miller noted on the TNT broadcast in real time that the Warriors did not have any challenges.

The final incorrect call came with just over 7 seconds left. With Golden State leading 117-116, Ja Morant knocked the ball away from Steph Curry. It was ruled Warriors ball, but the report says Curry touched it last and it should have been Memphis’ ball.

Memphis now needs a win at home Friday to earn the No. 8 seed in the West.
