Mavericks owner Mark Cuban blasted NBA officials for a bizarre moment in a 127-125 loss to the Golden State Warriors, with the team set to file a formal protest.
According to multiple reports, the Mavs will be filing a protest after Golden State scored an uncontested basket late in the third quarter, which according to Cuban, resulted from confusion as to who had possession of the ball.
'For those wondering about the play with 1:54 to go on the 3rd, let me explain what happened,' Cuban tweeted.
'The ref called Mavs ball. The announcer announced it. Then there was a timeout. During the time out the official changed the call and never told us. Then when they saw us line up as if it were our ball, he just gave the ball to the warriors.
'Never said a word to us They got an easy basketball. Crazy that it would matter in a 2 point game. Worst officiating non call mistake possibly in the history of the NBA . All they had to do was tell us and they didn't.'
