Allow me to preface the rest of this article with this: Former-MVP and league-leading scorer James Harden’s dunk midway through the fourth quarter was without a doubt a made basket. The ball went through the hoop and by all accounts, he should’ve been allotted two extra points. It’s undeniable that the referees made a mistake and should’ve listened to both Harden and his coach, Mike D’Antoni when they called for a replay.
However, it was announced on Tuesday that Adam Silver felt that the Rockets had “sufficient time to overcome the error,” henceforth putting an end to this madness.
