NBA Says Referees Made No Errors In Final Two Minutes Of Game 3

Despite a controversial decision on Chris Paul's foul of CJ McCollum, the NBA League Office says all the calls in the final two minutes of Game 3 were correct.

The NBA released its Last Two Minute Report (L2M) concerning Saturday night's 2016 NBA Playoffs Game 3 in Portland that saw the Trail Blazers close out the Los Angeles Clippers in the waning minutes to bring the series to 2-1 in favor of the Clippers. In the L2M report the league states that all calls, including the non-flagrant call on Chris Paul were called correctly.

The initial call on the floor for Paul's foul was a common foul, not a flagrant foul.
