MILWAUKEE -- Every member of the Boston Celtics inside Fiserv Forum on Saturday afternoon was incredulous.
With the clock ticking down and the Celtics training by three, Boston's Jaylen Brown handed the ball off to Marcus Smart on the perimeter. Immediately, Smart attempted to get his shot off with Milwaukee Bucks guard Jrue Holiday giving him no space at all. The whistle blew right away as Holiday's arm whacked across Smart's.
However, much to the delight of the majority of the 17,736 in attendance and the chagrin of everyone in the Celtics traveling party, the foul was called on the floor -- a rip-through -- instead of a three-shot foul.
