Probably shouldn't have squandered a 35 point lead to be in that situation in the first place.

They already used it prior. Or actually, I think they did not have any timeouts remaining so a challenge would be an automatic technical foul if I'm not mistaken.

Let's go back to all previous 60+ seasons and pick out the thousands and thousands of missed/wrong calls the human refs made in each game and get them overturned

Replay clearly shows Dinwiddie intentionally fouled Kennard long before he ever got a shot off, hence why he was screaming at the officials after the play. The refs just ignored it.

Yup if you blow a 35 point lead, you can't whine about the refs

So...... what exactly is the point of these post game reports again? What do they accomplish by publicly putting them out?

If Kennard missed the FT the ref should've just given him another one... if you squander a 35 point lead in 24 minutes you deserve to lose.

So essentially it shouldn't have been a continuation... which it looked pretty damn close to from that side angle.

I wonder how many continuation calls would be deemed incorrect if they all got reviewed.

yeah excuse me if I don't give a **** about this. if you have 20 chances to not lose the entirety of a 35 **** point lead and you are still dependent on the last play to not blow the game, it's more of a matter of you being put out of your misery.

If the Wizards don't win the title this season, now we'll all know why.
