The report of the last two minutes of the NBA said that Josh Tiven’s team, Bill Kennedy and Nick Buchert should not have called a personal foul about Golden State State ship owner Podziemski when he made a blockade in Scotty Pippen Jr. near the basket with 37 seconds.
Podziemski was called for a foul, which resulted in two free throws for Pippen. The Grizzlies shipowner made one of the two to cut the advantage of the Warriors to 117-114.
With the remaining 7.3 seconds and Golden State leading for one, the game stopped when Ja Morant reached Stephen Curry and made contact with the ball, which came out of the limits. The NBA said the ball should have been called by Curry, giving Memphis possession instead of Golden State.
A fundamental call that the NBA ruled that the officials put themselves correctly was a five-second violation of Memphis in an entrance game while following 119-116 with 5.4 remaining seconds. Curry received a foul after that and sealed the victory of the Warriors of the line.
The last two -minute report also said that the officials made two incorrect not married in the last two minutes. The referees should have called for a personal foul about Draymond Green in Pippen with 1:29 for the end. That would have been Green’s sixth personal lack. The great man of the Warriors would go out later with 58.6 seconds.
The referees also did not make an incorrect not married when the center of the Grizzlies Zach Edey should have been summoned for an offensive goal when he contacted the ball while he was in the imaginary cylinder on the edge with 1:28 remaining. Edey was accredited with a setback that reduced the advantage of the Warriors to 114-111.
The Warriors secured the 7 seeds and will face the hosts Houston Rockets in game 1 of a first round series on Sunday. Memphis will be the host of the winner of the Dallas-Sacrament game on Wednesday night in a game on Friday to determine the 8 seeds of the West Conference.
