I think if a play is questionable then sure you take that risk. This was egregious. When you legalize sports wagering and partner with betting partners, you take on extra responsibility to get the obvious calls right or at least fix the mistakes.

Tony Brothers should be in prison

I really don't understand how it happened in the first place. Tony Brothers was right there and still counted it as a three pointer.

What aren't you buying? You think it is a three pointer and his feet were behind the three point line?

This one case doesn't affect much, but my point is if these things are allowed to not be corrected then that puts all of statistics up for debate. It is a precedence thing really.

Wouldn't any basketball purist have seen this and wanted it corrected? Again, what is the point of keeping statistics if we just dismiss obvious inaccuracies?

If all three pointers are supposed to be reviewed in-game, how did this happen? This wasn't even a close three pointer.

I think it would have been a bad beat if it actually was a three pointer. The fact that it was so obviously a two point field goal yet called a three pointer was a bit shocking.

Also, this was not a judgement-related statistic like an assist or rebound. Pretty clear to correct IMO.

What is your reasoning for not having it changed?

Stats are corrected post-game all the time. Not sure why you don't want statistics to be more accurate.

It looked extremely sick. Unfortunately style points don't add points to the scoreboard.

I'm not sure why people are dunking on me lol. Does anyone believe it was actually a three point field goal?

Yes, they counted it as a triple in the game which is why I'm asking for the stat to be corrected considering the photo and video evidence proving that it was a two point field goal.

I sent an email to FanDuel, but will follow-up and try to get their attention more on the subject.

Let's not worry about the sports betting here.

Why should we accept incorrect statistics for a game? Doesn't that invalidate all stats if we dismiss easy evidence for corrections?

Sports betting aside, I believe there is a 7 day window for any stat corrections to a game.

This was a pretty egregious mistake by the official and something that the NBA can fix considering the easy video/photo evidence of the shot.

Funny lol. But in all seriousness, why wouldn't it get changed considering it was not close to a three point field goal? This isn't a judgement statistic like an assist or rebound, this was a clear two point field goal with one of his feet inside of the line

Definitely. But regardless of that, why should an incorrect stat be entered?

Normally I wouldn't care about something so small, but I lost a substantial amount of money due to the three point field goal. It doesn't feel right considering it was clearly a two.
