Ramiro gonzalez did an “investigation“ on this, and concluded that “Just realized the Lakers and Grizzlies played 13:06 minutes in the 3rd quarter last night. When the shot clock was supposed to be reset at 1:14, the game clock was also accidentally reset to 2:20. No one noticed and they played the rest of the way with the new game clock.”

This has been such a weird season lol

That’s crazy man. Great find.
How does nobody notice this?
How does this stuff still happen in league worth over 100billion dollars surely they could have a team to make sure this doesn’t happen.
So there would have been no time left for Lebron’s dunk and the Grizzles would have won.
Have to wipe all lebron numbers off the record books now.
Hope that over hit fr
I remembered a moment in the game where I thought the time got longer, but I wasn’t confident and thought I must have been imagining things.
damn league really is rigging it for us lets fucking gooooo!
I thought the 3rd quarter just seemed long because we sucked and it was hard to endure haha
NBA helping the Lakers again… /s
This is genuinely the dumbest fucking problem. The NBA is worth Billions. How does this even happen?

If so, how is this not a disqualification for the game. Shouldn’t they have to replay it? I know it’s not likely, but Lakers only won by 1 possession. Guessing Memphis just wants this season over.
Imagine betting the under after 3 quarters and only losing because the game went an extra minute. Should get your money back imo
Bullet time duh
We live in a twilight world
I could get six seconds being missed in real time, but how a minute and six seconds?!?
Just checked the box scores.. 241 total minutes.
That makes so much sense why the 3rd quarter felt longer than it should have lmao that’s such a crazy find

Vegas in shambles rn.
Wonder how many O/U or PPG bets got influenced.
this is like when in baseball the ump messes up the count and somehow nobody notices (which yes has happened before)
Did this affect the outcome?
Curious how this affects players’ Minutes Played stat. Feels like, technically, someone would have had the chance to set the record for most minutes played in a no-OT game
How does this work with vegas? Im sure the degens are finding this out now and it affected their O/U
Father Time in his bag trying to take down Lebron
Wow and the lakers won by 3. No conspiracy shit or anything buts is it possible they would’ve lost without that extra minute 6 seconds? Or were lakers already up enough by that point?
The league trying to help the Lakers solidify a playoff spot. It’s no coincidence it happens yet again in a Lakers game.
No shit. Refs made sure the Lakers won that game to get them up to 8. Was obvious from start to finish with that blatant foul leading to the LeBron closeout dunk.
The play-by-play is like “Everything’s fine”

The fact thousands of people watch these games and only this guy was able to point this out blows my mind. Same thing happened in that lakers/warriors game where the warriors mistakenly got an extended shot clock.
You know, at some oint, the guy who runs the clock realized his mistake but too much time had passed and he just sat their worried someone would say something for the rest of the game.
Wilt rolling in his grave furious that he could’ve played more than 48.5 minutes a game

Make sure there wasn’t a gambling motivation behind that because in all serious that’s some sinister shit
How does nobody notice
