Lakers Nuggets G2 Referee Report: James Key Layup Not Fouled Jokic Missed a Three-Second Foul
On April 24, Beijing time, the NBA officially announced the referee report for the last 2 minutes of the Lakers and Nuggets G2 series, and there was only one missed judgment, missing Jokic's three-second violation, and James was not fouled for a key layup.
With 1:53 left in the fourth quarter, Jokic stood in the restricted area and did not actively defend the opponent, staying in the restricted area for more than 3 seconds, and should have been whistled for a three-second violation of Jokic's defensive defense.
After the game, James found the referee and asked: "Why don't you blow 2+1, why don't you blow that whistle?
With 47 seconds left in the final quarter, James broke through to the basket and complained that the referee did not blow 2+1, and today's referee report shows that James was not fouled on this ball, and Pope touched James's body, but this contact was insignificant and did not constitute a foul.
In the third quarter, Russell was hit on the head by Porter Jr. but the foul was canceled after the Nuggets challenge was successful, and the referee said after watching the video that the head hit was considered a "slight contact", so the challenge was successful!
Russell also bluntly said that this is definitely a foul, and also said on social media: I can't say what I want to say, because I will be fined and these statements will be amplified. I'll tell you, I'll fuck them! We'll win, don't give up on us!
