WORST Calls In NBA History



WORST Calls In NBA History

This was about to be the greatest shot of a player’s career Davis at the Buzzard no yes no until here the buzzer sounded and even though the ball was clearly out of dude’s hands in time when he made it the refs said it was no good the refs ruined everything with one of

The eight worst calls in NBA history but something even crazier is the time the refs made a call on something that didn’t even happen the sun’s point guard Steve Nash and Blazer Center Marcus cambi are the two key players to pay attention to in this clip what started

Off is the sun’s passing the ball in the Nash turned into a whistle being blown about something nobody in the entire Arena could explain foul away from the ball Roy possibly yes it’s going to be on Roy and that is his no it’s on cam equally as

Damaging for Portland this has got to be on somebody else cambi wasn’t in the play Nash doesn’t even think he should be shooting he was out at half court it’s on cambi it is that’s his fourth foul that is a fourth foul in the playoffs are you kidding me you put a

90% free throw shooter on the line when he didn’t have any business being near the free throw line holy cow Joey you missed one there I mean really missed one yeah Nesh was nowhere near anybody then somehow Marcus a dude who was literally across the court got called

For a foul that got him benched and eventually led to his team losing whatever that ref was smoking to make a call that bad tell him to give me that plug’s number he’s got to have some good stuff but anyways at least that time the refs

Only ruined a play one of the worst calls in history ruined an NBA legends birthday December 30th 2023 was Big Daddy’s I mean LeBron James’s bday and during his match up with the t-wolves he was going off all night long until everything came down to chaos no call

Conelly Lakers Davis up ahead LeBron in Chase mode LeBron on it way got it he’s got it two this is so closeing on the floor stands two-point field oh there it is trying to review it to see if he was behind the line LeBron is stoning look

Look look look my feet yeah you know things with a wrong call when LeBron’s whining like a baby oh wait he always does that anyways this time LeBron ran to the monitor to show the refs they were wrong and just taking a look there was clearly space between his foot and

The line sing LeBron did to clown the refs a bit uh I mean it’s it’s obvious a three put is behind the line I mean you can see the space between my front of my foot and the three-point line the wood on the floor is is a space in between my

Front of my foot and the three-point line so you know St Wonder can see that champ talk to the other ref and they said it was out of their hands the cus over there in the replay Center somebody over there eating a hand sandwich or somebody made the call but honestly

LeBron was right the refs were Blinder and Stevie so even though it should have been a three they called it a two and lost him the game no way LeBron was celebrating his birthday that night and there’s no way Jason Tatum was celebrating either when ref’s made a

Crazy call just cuz he didn’t injure himself up a little bit Tatum from porzingis that’s going to be a technical on Tatum for hanging on the rim yeah Tatum was stunned he couldn’t believe the ref’s called the technical for that but it’s all because of a rule change

The NBA recently made that says players are not allowed to pull themselves up on the rim nor are they allowed to hang on the rim after a dunk attempt unless they’re doing so to avoid injury to themselves or another player and honestly if you ask me that’s what I

Thought he was doing so did Tatum I mean that’s a rule that they just implemented that quite frankly I don’t think make any sense cuz anybody that’s ever played or dumped the ball you know your momentum just trying to make sure that you know you stable when you land and

Make sure nobody’s underneath so I don’t know maybe they want me to just let go and fall on my back H okay I think I get it out so I guess next time the ref’s just expect him to do this oh oh my goodness man that had to

Hurt but Luca’s Pockets hurt even worse after the refs made such horrible calls not only did a team get free points it got him find $35,000 but before we get to that if you’re anything like me and love watching Steph go off seeing him up close and personal is a memory I’ll

Never forget and it’s never been easier to do it again cuz I just partnered up with my boys at game time to let you in on a secret that they’ve created the best ticket buying experience I’ve ever used I mean just watch how easy it is as

See something you want to show up to use this code right here who then I really want you to let me know in the comments afterwards if me and Game Time took your love for sports to a whole new level but anyways back to one of the worst calls in NBA history that

Gave a team free points and cost Luca donich $35,000 it started when Luca and the Mavericks became a victim late in a close game with the Warriors after this dunk the Mavericks called the timeout and a ref clearly pointed in their Direction admitting it would be their

Ball after the break but when the timeout was over and the Mavericks were waiting a ref at the other end of the Court gave the Warriors the ball instead watch here Dallas thinks it’s their ball out of the timeout the Warriors are inbounding under the Dallas basket you

Saw lumy start to run the other way and then he realizes wait we have a layup but the Mavs were under the assumption it was their ball the refs really gave the Warriors their easiest shot of the night basically free points just cuz they forgot what call was even made the

Warriors had to be in their parlay or something I don’t even know now obviously the Mavericks weren’t happy so even their coach was raging cuz he knew it was their ball they just had to get over it though the game continued and in the end nobody thought just two points

Would matter that much until later in the game with only a few seconds left the Mavericks were down by a few points and this happened CL inside to donic underneath the basket got to put it up he does missed it how did the refs not call that Luka literally had a WWE Champion

Draymond Green all over him there was clearly contact and what should have been a foul call wasn’t called Luca was so pissed that he started rubbing his fingers together at the ref like they were being paid off to to make terrible calls which ironically got him F

$35,000 the worst part of this all though the Mavericks lost by only two points so either of the ref’s bad calls not happening would have completely changed the outcome of the game that’s why Mavericks owner Mark cubin whipped out his Twitter fingers to say worst officiating non- call mistake possibly

In the history of the NBA and just cuz of the ref’s bad calls the Mavericks even filed to officially protest the entire game to have it replayed now all right all right all right up to this point ref’s only made bad calls to ruin a sing sing Le game there was a time

Refs made such an obviously bad call it was proof they were trying to rig the NBA Finals as soon as it was going to be nuggets verse Heat in the finals everybody basically knew the series was over before it started man so it definitely wasn’t a surprise that the

Nuggets dominated until they eventually went up 3-1 in the series to be just a game away from the series being over but during that next game things got weird in the fourth quarter where with around 3 minutes left the refs did something that even had the commentators stun searching Butler tries again Butler

Won’t go but a foul oh Butler kicking that right leg out that’s going to be overturned I think so upon review instant replay has determin the call on the floor stands as Jimmy but makes a natural move and a moves into his face it’s a boul shot wow and I totally

Disagree that right leg kicking out is not a natural move on that jump shot that’s surprising it’s just wrong yeah everyone in the building knew the refs made the wrong call if anything just look at this Jimmy literally kick dude in his tip it should have been a foul on

Him the fans went crazy saying if they’re going to give Jimmy Butler free throw attempts for kicking Aaron Gordon in the nuts then I quit these refs man garbage sauce and one even said wow that Butler kicked to Gordon’s privates rule the foul is a super duper atrocious call

Now as Courtney as all them sounded they were kind of right it seemed like the refs were willing to make any calls even if they didn’t make sense to try and help the Heat win so the series could go another game cuz after all those NBA Finals had record low viewership

Horrible ratings and an extra game to the series would have desperately made the league money they needed in the end though the Nuggets were still able to overcome the refs I mean the Heat and W the championship that night anyways which we all knew would happen but something I never thought would happen

Is the ref’s making a right call then changing their mind to completely mess up a game you don’t see Steph Curry getting pissed at the refs often but when he does it’s scary this all happened because towards the end of a close game the refs blew their whistle and actually made the

Right call for once Curry for the top oh oh Jimmy got a piece of the shot but also a piece of Curry so Steph will get three foul shots after that foul call Steph stepped up to the line to shoot his free throws and potentially tied the

Game until the heat challenged the call and demanded the refs review the play now on the replays it clearly showed Jimmy Butler damn near high five step during his shot so in other words he followed him and that only took me a few seconds to realize but it kind of took

The refs forever to review this play and it seemed like they saw something we didn’t cuz once they came back they reversed their call and instead just gave the heat the ball the defensive foul has been overturned all Steph could do was sit there like cuz what should

Have made this game close now killed all the Warriors momentum to make him eventually lose by seven and what did Steph think about all this any thoughts on the uh late overturned call it’s an awful call what you think I was supposed to say I was walking to the free throw

Line thinking I was going to get three free throws and you know have a even score a minute some change left it’s a tough one I clearly felt a lot of contact I don’t know what they saw besides the high five contact they talked about but you got to be allowed

To finish your motion I I felt like especially when you slow it down the slowmo it’s pretty clear there’s a lot of contact but what do I know about calls man these refs have no shame ruining a game but the worst thing I ever heard refs do was makes such a bad

Call it forced the Pistons to set one of the most embarrassing records in sports history now don’t get me wrong the Pistons were already down bad cuz they were doing the unthinkable playing like such ass they were on one of the worst losing streaks in sports history with 27

L’s in a row 27 and things weren’t looking much better when their next game was going up against the best team in the league at the time the Celtics nobody thought the Pistons even had a chance should the Pistons be this bad no they shouldn’t I mean they’re NBA team

Losing 27 in a row well make it 28 in a row because they going to lose tomorrow night to the Boston Celtics I have a better chance of having breakfast in the morning with Beyonce and open than they do it beating the Cel so after he said

That everyone tuned in to see how badly the Pistons would get smacked to every Fan’s surprise though Pistons kept it close in the first half and actually started shocking the world when they went in halftime with a big lead at this point though not only would the Pistons

Winning be crazy I also knew Wing Stop was giving away free Wings if they pulled it off so even I was tuned in trying to find out if I’d be eatting dinner tonight but anyways even though the game went on and the Pistons kept their lead until the the fourth quarter

Both teams went back and forth until the final seconds when one of the worst calls ever happened spinning oh spins oh that is close yeah I think give it on review oh oh that is so close that is so close slow oh here we go this is the

Angle right here oh that’s it wait that’s cloud so that you know I need that same angle oh I don’t know I don’t know yeah with the game on the line scratch that with the Piston’s entire reputations and one of the most embarrassing records of all time on the line instead of this

Being a game saving block the ref’s called goal tending which saved the Celtics from public humiliation and eventually led to them winning so that one call gave the Pistons their record setting 28 straight loss the longest losing streak in now only the NBA Sports history but to be honest it wasn’t all

The ref’s fault that time the Pistons are literally dog and that wasn’t even the worst time players got humiliated from pulling opponent shorts down to humiliating an opponent so badly they got turned into a diamond chain some players even got clowned on TV for wearing the ugliest outfits you’ll ever

See listen I’ve been screaming about NBA players for 20 minutes and I’m on so much caffeine I might have a heart attack so just click this video before the paramedics arriv and tell you I’m dead click it

  1. I love how everybody was thinking about Tatum foul on Lebron but he showed another clip, but yeah referees are helping Lakers for sure.

  2. LeBron had travelled before his 3 point attempt. The 2 points shouldn’t have counted. However, every close in picture of his foot is before he released the ball. When the ball left his hands he was further extended onto the toe of his shoe and there wasn’t any space between his toe and line. There was no way any review could overturn the original.

  3. One of my favs is still when durant literally saved the ball in the parking lot and didn't get called out of bounds.

  4. 9:56 your allowed to hit someone hand after release of the ball, it’s considered incidental contact and is legal defensive contact

  5. I think it was the right move for the refs to overturn the foul on steph. The ball was already in the air before contact was made, and its a minor one at that
