NEW YORK – The NBA announced today that Commissioner Adam Silver has denied t
he Houston Rockets protest of their 135-133 loss to the San Antonio Spurs on D
ec. 3, 2019, following receipt by the league office of submissions from both t
eams and the completion of its investigation.
In the protest, the Rockets argued that the officials misapplied the playing r
ules by failing to grant a Coach’s Challenge in connection with James Harden
’s fourth quarter dunk, and that this error had a clear impact on the outcome
of the game by depriving the team of two points. While agreeing that the ref
erees misapplied the rules, Commissioner Silver determined that the Rockets ha
d sufficient time to overcome the error during the remainder of the fourth qua
rter and two subsequent overtime periods and thus the extraordinary remedy of
granting a game protest was not warranted.
In addition, the league announced today that it has disciplined all three refe
rees from the game for misapplying the Coach’s Challenge rule.
With 7:50 remaining in the fourth quarter and the score 102-89 in favor of Hou
ston, Harden stole the ball and converted an uncontested dunk. The ball was d
unked with such force that, as it cleared the net, the ball was propelled arou
nd the basket and upward, creating an initial appearance that it was not a suc
cessful field goal. Houston then called a timeout, and the officiating crew c
onferenced to discuss the play.
After deliberation, the crew informed the Houston coaching staff that a basket
interference violation had been called on Harden, and Houston asked for a Coa
ch’s Challenge. This request was denied by the officials because more than 3
0 seconds had elapsed from the start of the timeout. But the 30-second time l
imit for Coach’s Challenges only applies when the challenge arises during a m
andatory timeout or a timeout called by the opposing team. Because Houston ca
lled the timeout in this case, it was entitled to challenge the basket interfe
rence call upon being informed of it by the game officials.
If the Coach’s Challenge requested by Houston had been properly granted, inst
ant replay would have shown that Harden’s dunk was a successful field goal.
As a follow-up to the NBA’s investigation of this matter, the NBA will work w
ith the Competition Committee to develop additional procedures to help prevent
the situation with Harden’s made basket from occurring again.
翻译大概如下
Adam Silver否决了火箭输给马刺的抗议。
火箭队抗议说，官方错误地运用了教练挑战赛的比赛规则，并且对比赛的结果产生了明显
影响。
Adam Silver表示在裁判误用规则的同时，火箭队在第四节的剩余时间和随后的两个OT期
间有足够的时间来弥补错误，因此，没有理由给予比赛抗议的特殊补救措施。
此外，联盟今天宣布，由于误用了教练的挑战规则，已对比赛中的所有三名裁判进行了处
分
第四节还剩下7:50，哈登灌篮后被判定没进，火箭叫暂停，裁判组开完会后，哈登被判违
反
篮筐干扰规定，所以一样不算分，火箭要求教练进行挑战，裁判拒绝了此请求，因为自暂
停开始以来已超过30秒，但是，教练挑战的30秒时限仅适用于在裁判的强制暂停或对方团
队要求的暂停开始时。 由于休斯顿在这种情况下喊出了暂停，因此有权在裁判组判定为
篮筐干扰后对其进行质疑。
如果休斯顿要求的教练挑战被允许，那么即时重播就可以发现哈登的灌篮是成功的。
官方将会对这一问题再做后续措施，以防止同样事情再次发生。
意思就是阿银"觉得"你火箭教练团自己在比赛结束前的剩余时间都没再反应或处理这件事
，事后再跟我吵说裁判搞错了这个制度然后要求重赛，你火箭根本是在马后炮
嗯...死鸭子嘴硬
(结论看了一下改这样才对，一开始我也误解了)
