The Sacramento Kings took one to the chin against the Toronto Raptors on Saturday, losing 131-128 in an overtime thriller on the road.
The Kings struggled when it mattered most, but the NBA Last Two-Minute Report suggests that a couple missed calls could have affected the outcome of the game.
There were two incorrect no-calls against the Raptors in the last two minutes of Saturday’s fourth quarter and overtime period:
While these no-calls might have made a difference for the Kings in the end, it is no excuse for Sacramento to come out slow and lose this game against an inferior Raptors squad.
The NBA Last Two-Minute Report does not do anything for the outcome of the game, except the league recognizing their referee’s mistakes. The Kings certainly would have had a better chance to come out of Toronto with a win on Saturday if these calls went their way, but the result stays the same.
