NBA Non-Calls Last Minute

We dive into the NBA game ending plays that have raised controversy over the last few weeks, recap the Raptors win over the Rockets, NFL Preview of week 10, and recap the Leafs Golden Knights game.

Timestamps Approximate

Kicking off with BBall Storylines (04:15) we try something new today. We rewatch clips from: Herro's gamewinner for the Miami Heat over the Sacramento Kings, Grant's winner for the Portland Trailblazers over the Phoenix Suns, Jason Tatum's Dunk on Jarrett Allen in the Boston Celtics vs Cleveland Cavaliers matchup and his subsequent block on Donovan Mitchell in the same game, Klay Thompson's contest of Kevin Huerter's attempt in the Golden State Warriors vs Sacramento Kings (again lol), Bennedict Mathurin's body contact on a Nikola Jokic layup attempt in the Denver Nuggets vs Indiana Pacers, and Lu Dort's push on Brook Lopez in the Milwaukee Bucks vs Oklahoma City Thunder game. All of which had less than 10 seconds on the clock where a non call (or call in the last one) had direct impacts on the game. We give our takes on whether it was justified from a by the rules viewpoint and from what we'd like to see from the game ideally.

Continuing with Basketball (34:48) we recap the Toronto Raptors narrow win over the Houston Rockets, that saw great performances from OG Anunoby and Fred VanFleet with wonderful support from Young and Porter Jr

In Football Fancave (45:45) Owen has a bit of hype for Team Canada's return to the FIFA cup amidst injury scares, as well as the usual NFL Preview as we approach Week 10

Wrapping up Talkin' some Hockey (52:45) we touch on the Toronto Maple Leafs OT loss to the Vegas Golden Knights
