Transcript

Game's from 2023 Celtics Lakers. Schroeder inbounds the ball to LeBron driving to win the game. It doesn't go. Tatum on the contest swipes down in the arm, a clear foul, but no whistle. He hit my arm. What the fuck? Smacks the floor, roughs up the coach. Oh my oh my god. He hit my arm. LeBron down to one knee trying to pull it together. Keyword trying. We have made our way to both knees, and now we have four points of contact. Pat Bev has retrieved a camera bringing photographic evidence to Eric Lewis. Bow. Pat. Okay. That's how it's gonna be. That's a technical foul. And then we actually see the camera display, and it's not even a picture. Oh, Pat Bev. Foul. See the picture? Foul. Game went to overtime and the Celtics won at one twenty five to one twenty one.
