NBA L2M report dismisses Kings overtime loss to Raptors

The Sacramento Kings took one to the chin against Toronto Raptors on Saturday, losing 131-128 in an overtime thriller on the road.

The Kings struggled when it mattered most, but The report of the last two minutes NBA suggests that a few missed calls may have affected the outcome of the game.

There were two foul calls against the Raptors in the final two minutes of the fourth quarter and overtime on Saturday:

While those calls might not have made the difference for the Kings in the end, it’s no excuse for Sacramento to come out slow and lose this game against an inferior Raptors team.

The NBA’s final two-minute report does nothing for the outcome of the game, except for the league to acknowledge its referee’s mistakes. The Kings certainly would have had a better chance to get out of Toronto with a win on Saturday if those calls had followed through, but the result remains the same.
