16 MINUTES just elapsed for 15 seconds off the clock in the GSW-Lakers game



I mean this is getting ridiculous, it was a combination of both reviews (the 3 then the Draymond play), and the shot clock going down, but a quarter could’ve happened for the time it took for that to end

​

And the worst part is that ITS STILL GOING. They still havent resolved the shot clock issue. This is cooked, last time I could remember it this bad was that clippers suns playoff game

Edit: The game finished, and it took about 25 minutes for play to actually resume…

    Generations will be born and have died by the time the game is over

    20 minutes for a Bron turnover this gotta suck for Lakers fans lmao

  3. bean123123

    I’ve been refreshing the score on Google thinkning something was wrong.

  4. Cvnilivee

    Watched almost the entire 2nd quarter of the Knicks/Kings game they were still stuck at like 1:47 lol

  5. jinayeonbt

    holy fucking shit just let us lose in peace

  6. XxXFartFucker69XxX

    Reminds me of the year we tried to review everything under 2 mins.

  7. GriffinQ

    Fucking absurd ending.

    The moment they spent 10 minutes to take away the LeBron 3, I think we all knew this game was over. Pretty dumb it took 20 more minutes to get through but the next two minutes of game time.

  8. 20815147

    20 years from now the kids will point to this game to say “WE DONE WITH THE 20s”

    Just embarrassing

  9. bdvfgvvcffc

    Bro, these 5 second shot clock announcements are not bad. Better than some of the trash music being played.

  10. goldyacht

    This shit is some serious ass, took Lebrons 3 away and killed all momentum with 50 fucking time outs.

  11. dontheconqueror

    Imagine playing the remainder of crunch time with your sweat dried up, your body cooled down, and your adrenaline washed away.

  12. It was even more fitting that this happens on a huge national tv game where a lot of casual fans might be watching their first game of the season lol. Great look for Silver

  13. MrAppleSpoink

    This was a fucking disgusting showing by the officials. I don’t give a fuck what anyone says, that bullshit cost us a shot at the game. We were rolling and then suddenly they decide that our 3 doesn’t count and give a 20 minute break leading to everyone stiffening up. I’m not saying we WOULD’VE won, but we damn sure COULD’VE and the refs are the reason that opportunity was gone.

  14. cebolla-caballo

    The game was fun and exciting and they fucking ruined it. Nba is cooked

  15. The-Pharcyde

    Worst ending to a game ive ever seen in over 20+ years of watching the nba

  16. BUUAHAHAHA

    Crazy. I took a quick shower bc I spilled coffee on my pants. Came back and the game was still on pause.

  17. cortesoft

    Oh, you thought the normal last two minutes takes too long in the NBA?

  18. CognogginGames

    David Guthrie MVP bandwagon starts here.

    The man was everywhere tonight. Frustrating Lebron on defense, >50% usage rate, stopping time, digging deep into his bag. He plays at his own pace.

  19. Littlegreenman42

    These guys made English refs look competent with video reviews.

    Do you have any idea how hard that is?

  20. CourtBaller125

    NBA product has been so shit these last couple years, not the same league it used to be, product is so frustrating

  21. Human_Size_3721

    Human refs gotta go. We gotta make machine refs a thing now

  22. When did this start so I can watch on playback. I wanna experience what happened 

  23. Human_Size_3721

    Not just this game, but there’s been so many instances where the last two minutes of a close NBA game takes at least 20 minutes. Refs love wasting people’s time rereviewing simple calls

  24. Balls_of_Adamanthium

    Reviews toward the end took so damn long the shot clock decided to pack his shit and go home.

  25. And yall motherfuckers want more reviews if the coaches get it right

  26. youngwonton

    Am I crazy or have there been considerably more shot clock malfunctions this season?

  27. Due-Studio-65

    I watch all of killers of the flower moon in the 4th quarter.

  28. Axl2TheMaxl

    NBA testing a new format where the most exciting part of the game is the first 40 minutes

  29. dnfnrheudks

    Proponent of AI refs will show this quarter as their argument

  30. I thought the picture you posted was you saying you’re Kim K lol

  31. Salmonellapancakes

    I am so fucking glad I didn’t spend $500 on tickets today, holy fuck

  32. No-Wedding693

    These are the 9th and 10th teams in the West. This is not a damn marquee matchup anymore

  33. SarcasticlySpeaking

    What’s the over/under for the number of phone calls by the refs to their bookies during these breaks?

  34. wafflehouse4

    this is just another secret lebron plot where he gets to be on your tv for another thirty minutes

  35. AtreusIsBack

    Adam Silver rubbing his hands for all that ad revenue.

  36. Jeroen_Jrn

    This shit is by far the biggest problem with the NBA btw.

  37. Connor_Roy_2024

    Youtube TV is a game changer. I record all NBA games; put my phone on DND and start the game about 75 min in. Usually I catch up with a few min. left in the fourth but this game was something else.

  38. NippleDeepPow

    I’m a lakers fan and I turned it off. Silver has ruined the game. Players flopping has become absolutely ridiculous . Plus the refs stopping the game for any little thing. Unwatchable
