Good. Too many damn reviews in the game as-is.

Plus the stupid - overturning of calls where defender knocks the ball out but it grazes the finger of the player who had the ball in his palm are so dumb. They need to fix that s**t too - those shouldn't get overturned by the coach's challenge either. At least defenders won't be asking refs for a review every time ball gets knocked out.

Videos replays should be about correcting obvious bad calls - IMO all video replays should be done at normal speed. If you don't have clear evidence to overturn a call in normal speed - move along.

I agree. Ask anyone who has played basketball and they will tell you it's out on the guy who knocks the ball out and not on the guy who's palm microscopically is in contact for a 10th of a second before it goes out of bounds.

So tired of this clear evidence to overturn crap. Its that part of instant replay that makes instant replay a joke across all sports. Replay official should watch the play, watch various angles, and figure out based on video evidence what he thinks the call should be. Period.

Clippers and Celtics will be good landing place for him.

Sixers cant get what they want for Simmons and are going to call his bluff.

I'll even go a step further - if you slam someone's hand and it's a clear foul but the ball goes out on them after review bc it touched them last, that's absolutely their ball as well. Nothing is worse than when someone gets fouled and the only part they review is who touched it last. Complete BS
