00:00All right everybody, let's break down the NBA's last two-minute report from that chaotic Suns-Lakers

00:06finish. So, the league officially reviewed every single call and non-call from the final minute

00:11of that Phoenix Suns vs. Los Angeles Lakers game, which the Lakers won, 116-114. Their conclusion?

00:19The officials got every single one of those final-minute decisions, correct. Now, the arena,

00:26the mortgage matchup center, was boiling over. Fans were furious, after a sequence that included

00:32multiple video reviews and whistles, the big moments everyone was screaming about, first the

00:37non-call on LeBron James contesting Dylan Brooks' potential go-ahead three-pointer, second, the

00:43technical foul called on Dylan Brooks, that ended up ejecting him from the game, and third, the foul

00:49called on Devin Booker, that sent LeBron James to the free-throw line, with only three seconds left

00:54on the clock. According to the official report, the only mistakes they found, happened earlier,

01:00outside of that final minute. They listed two incorrect non-calls, an offensive foul that

01:05should have been called on Dylan Brooks, with 138 left, and one on Luka Doncic, with 108 to go.

01:12On that specific play against Brooks, he was in transition, wasn't whistled, and actually scored

01:17on that possession, to bring the score to 111-106, for the Lakers. And regarding the biggest point of

01:23controversy, the contact by LeBron James, on Brooks' three-point attempt, the report states

01:30that was judged correctly as a non-call. So the league's official stance is that the most critical

01:37game-deciding moments were officiated properly. It makes you wonder, if the report says the crucial

01:42calls were right, but the fans and players are in total disbelief, what's the real value

01:47of this transparency?
