NBA reveals it missed foul against Knicks Josh Hart in critical part of historic comeback

Wait… the refs helped the Knicks?The NBA two-minute report for Game 4 of the NBA Finals revealed that Josh Hart fouled the Spurs’ Stephon Castle on the baseline with 1:03 left in the fourth quarter, meaning it should have stayed Spurs basketball.The play, which happened after San Antonio had already blown a 29-point lead and was trailing 105-104, saw Castle drive the baseline against Hart and eventually be called out of bounds.Not only did further replay show he may never have stepped out, but it also showed Hart being physical with the rookie guard all the way to the basket.
“Hart impedes Castle on his drive as Castle is incorrectly called for committing and out-of-bounds violation,” the report read.On the court, the refs called it Knicks basketball, and the young Spurs coach Mitch Johnson never questioned the ruling.
The Spurs, who were in the bonus at the time, still had a challenge after a successful one just 65 seconds into the game allowed them another.Johnson brought the challenge back to San Antonio with him in an eventual 107-106 loss.The report, per The Post’s Stefan Bondy, also mentioned two other potential four calls.Another unbelievable Knicks win and another cover worth framing to hold onto this moment.
