Donovan Mitchell’s 71-point game should never happened, according to the NBA.
The league has ruled in its Last Two Minute Report that Mitchell committed a
lane violation when he followed an intentionally missed free-throw with a
miraculous put-back layup to force overtime against the Bulls on Monday.
Mitchell scored 13 points in overtime to reach a career-high 71, marking the
highest scoring performance since Kobe Bryant famously scored 81 points in
2006, and making him just the seventh player to ever reach the 70-point mark.
However, had Mitchell been correctly whistled for crossing the free-throw
line before the ball hit the basket, he would have finished with 56 points
and a loss, instead of 71 points and a win.
While some may feel the NBA are acting as the fun police in this instance,
the league is at least trying to keep their referees accountable.
However, you could also be excused for choosing to ignore this report and
simply enjoy a historic occasion.
官方承认 米秋在最后第四节比赛末的罚球已经违例 71分比赛不应该存在
最后他应该只拿56分且骑士队输球
