I love how everyone glossed over this call. This was one of the most obvious examples of rigging I’ve ever seen lol

  1. Is there still no close up angle of this play? Like they just made the call and moved on to the next play…

  2. I was watching the Celtics stream online and they showed 0 replays and only that shitty angle. So bad.

  3. A lot of different flairs on r/nba had an issue with that too. Obvious rigging attempt.

    Again though, ball? Ball don’t lie.

  4. According to the L2M, they ruled the ball didn’t go out of bounds, and since Brown had the ball at the time of the inadvertent whistle it’s Celtics ball… Unbelievable

    Brown has to make a save like he did or step out of bounds. In my opinion you have to go to a jump ball there

  5. I was watching the game. The play before, on the other end, Jason Tatum was fouled by the ref missed it. Like… the foul shouldn’t have been missed. Then, this play happens, and they gave Boston the ball.

    Thus making this a makeup call.

  6. The men in black suits came for your topic on r/nba. Careful out there, Silver’s gonna send his people after you.

    Luckily they have fanduel branding plastered all over them so you’ll see them coming.

  7. i couldnt believe this and of course not one single replay. i would be rioting if we lost that game.

  8. Its really not that hard to understand. the ref blew the whistle because he thought brown was Out of bounds but realized he wasnt when he blew the whistle. The whistle blow stops the play and prevents brown from having the chance to throw the ball off the hawks, (He wasnt going to do it on this play, but the whistle prevented him the opportunity) Play is dead, boston “had possession” so boston ball. it isnt some scheme against the hawks. just a bad whistle and the best possible call by the rules after it.

  9. Can’t tell from this angle but the ball looked like it went out of bounds at the same time the whistle blew to me. In any event Brown never had possession so that call was super suspect, plus no ref huddle? No replay? Super weird

  10. So glad JB missed the game winner. Almost took the luster out of a phenomenal game. If hawks lost this woulda felt like roughing the passer (Brady) on that sack by Grady Jarrett or that no call on pass interference vs chiefs…refs cost Falcons both of those games.
