Watch as the Los Angeles Lakers have to throw the ball in on 5 separate occasions because of shot clock malfunctions.
How about if that would have happened?
James will bring it up.
Still seven point game.
And the clock's not moving.
Boy oh boy, James in frustration just throws the ball down.
The Warriors want a technical foul
out of throwing the ball down.
Please don't go review this.
All right, so they take six seconds off the shot clock.
So now the Lakers will inbound again.
Wow, this is downright comical.
Or it would be comical, but it wasn't so sad.
All the time, and now the shot clock just is not working.
LeBron just looks at the table and says, I'm too old for this.
Well, the shot clock is clearly exhausted
from all this waiting around.
Still not working.
Wow.
All right, now the crowd's getting a little cantankerous.
Can imagine the viewers at home.
So Hachimura will inbound, 1.35 remaining.
Lakers only have one timeout left.
Warriors still have two.
The shot clock is not moving.
Maybe we can play like back in the old days
when they don't have a shot clock.
Just holding still.
Boy, that says it all right there.
This is just maddening.
You know, they've done things in four
where shot clocks have gone down,
and they've had PA call out the time when there's
10 seconds left, five seconds.
Let's do that.
It just needs to start again.
And my guess is they'll have Tantor call it out.
LeBron James is not ready to inbound.
It's way in the backcourt.
Now he's coming up.
All right, shot clock not working,
but they're going to play.
Nope.
I thought they were going to.
All right, now they're going to go with the manual stopwatch.
What is it about us calling Lakers games recently?
A couple of weeks ago, our entire table lost power.
No audio.
That was by design by Mike Breen.
All right.
I've never seen anything like this
in 30 plus years in the NBA.
All right, we're approaching 20 minutes
Shot clock up top says 24, but there's 14 on the shot clock.
James looking.
Under 10 now.
James drives on Curry.
Stolen by Curry.
Take it away, and brings it into the front court.
Excellent defense.
Just guesses.
LeBron's coming back right.
15 seconds left on the shot clock.
Curry keeping the handle.
Now it's down to 10 seconds.
Draymond Green drives, throws it up.
Kaminga throws it down.
That makes it a nine point game with just over a minute
remaining.
