Lakers Raptors referee report released: Barrett covered foul correctly The Lakers missed two judgments and suffered losses but still narrowly won
On January 11, Beijing time, the NBA officially announced the referee report for the last two minutes of the Lakers vs Raptors yesterday. According to the report, there were two missed judgments in the last two minutes of the game, both of which were suffered by the Lakers, and in the end, the Lakers narrowly defeated the Raptors 132-131. In this game, the free throw gap between the two sides became a hot topic after the game, and in the whole game, the Lakers got 36 free throw opportunities, while the Raptors only had 13, and the ratio of free throws between the two sides in the final quarter was an astonishing 23-2. Raptors coach Rajakovic angrily complained about the shamelessness of the referee and bluntly said that if the Lakers had to win, they could not play, and his remarks also caused controversy.
The first missed call came with 1:33 left before the end of the game, when Barnes blocked Reaves' movement while attacking, which was an offensive foul leak, and it was the Lakers who suffered and the Raptors who profited.
The second missed call came with 1:18 left in the game, when Barrett hit Bushy Eyebrow's right wrist, causing him to lose control of the ball, a leaky defensive foul that cost the Lakers and the Raptors profit.
In addition, the referee's report also determined that Barrett's cover was indeed an offensive foul, and the referee's decision was correct!
The Raptors scored 20+ points on the team, Barnes had 26 points, 3 rebounds and 6 assists, Siakam had 25 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists, Barrett had 23 points, 10 rebounds and 5 assists, and Quickley had 21 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists. On the Lakers side, thick eyebrows dominated the restricted area, scoring 41 points, 11 rebounds and 6 assists, and one person got 14 free throw opportunities, surpassing the entire Raptors team. James had 22 points, 5 rebounds and 12 assists. Seven Lakers players scored in double figures.
After the game, Rajakovic complained: "It's a shame! The referee is shameful, and the league that made this happen is also a shame." The number of free throws in the fourth quarter was 23-2, and you tell me that I only had two free throws in the fourth quarter, so how am I going to play this game? I respect their stars, but we have stars here too. Barnes was attacking the basket in every round of the fourth quarter, and he didn't fake a fall or cheat the whistle, but he only made two free throws in the entire game. How could this happen? How could this be? How can you explain this to me?"
Rajakovic was even so angry that he slammed the table: "The Lakers have to win today, right? If that's the case, then tell us, we just don't play today." Just let them win, it's so unfair tonight. ”
Now that the referee report is out, the Lakers are all at stake, I don't know what everyone thinks?
