Are you sure about those .9 seconds?
The clock went from 2.1 seconds to a full three seconds after Jimmy Butler was fouled shooting a 3-pointerButler made all three free throws to put the Heat up 103-102, but those extra ticks on the clock made all the difference as Derrick White’s putback came with .1 seconds left. The league explained the extra time was added to the clock after Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla unsuccessfully challenged the foul call against Al Horford.
“Replay review of the foul called on Horford pursuant to a coach’s challenge was deemed unsuccessful,”“Horford made contact with Butler during his shooting motion and a foul was warranted. During the review, the Replay Center Official also determined that i) the foul occurred at 3.0 seconds and adjusted the clock accordingly; and ii) Butler’s shot attempt was taken from behind the three-point line, and therefore three free throws were awarded.”Al Horford fouls Jimmy Butler in the final seconds.
The report also revealed that there were two calls that should have gone against Miami: A missed lane violation against Caleb Martin on a Jaylen Brown free throw with 1:01 left and a Jayson Tatum drive that should have resulted in a Gabe Vincent foul with 33 seconds remaining.3 seconds look like Butler hasn’t gone up yet, but at 2.8 he’s fouled
