The scores are in, and the NBA admits that the referees didn't get it correct on a little key plays at the end of Game 2 of the NBA Finals.
According to the NBA, the referees Zach Zarba, Scott Foster and Tony Brothers overlooked some calls during the last two minutes of the Cleveland Cavaliers' 95-93 victory over the Golden State Warriors on Sunday. The best-of-seven series is tied at a game for each.
"I saw it. I'm not going to talk about that, obviously," Cavaliers coach David Blatt said Tuesday. "The NBA is doing their work and their homework, and very competent people are in charge of handling those issues. I'm going to let them handle it." With 1:37 remaining in overtime, the NBA said the Warriors' Andre Iguodala wasn't called for making contact with LeBron James' arm on a shot attempt as the 24-second shot clock expired. However, the association also confessed Monday that James had moved his pivot foot before the shot attempt and should have been called for traveling before the contact was made.
