The NBA said Sunday that Nets center Jarrett Allen was fouled in the final seconds of Saturday's Game 4 against the Philadelphia 76ers in Brooklyn. According to the league's Last Two Minute Report, Sixers forward Tobias Harris grabbed Allen, preventing him from rolling from his screen and releasing to the basket sooner. If Harris hadn't grabbed Allen, he might've had enough time to dunk the ball and tie the game. Instead, the extra second allowed him to be corralled by three defenders, and he eventually turned the ball over, preventing the Nets from attempting a potential game-tying -- or winning -- shot in the final seconds. Harris was eventually fouled and sank two free throws with 4.9 seconds remaining to seal the 112-108 win for Philadelphia, which gave the Sixers a 3-1 lead in the best-of-seven series. "So the big point of emphasis this year was the wrapping, wrapping the player when he rolls to the rim," Nets coach Kenny Atkinson said after Saturday's game. "Judge for yourself if you watch the clip, but there was a clear wrap by Tobias Harris on the roll. "I am just disappointed. That was a point of emphasis on day one at the coaches' meetings -- that they were going to emphasize that at the beginning of the game, the end of the game and all season. So how that all of a sudden doesn't become a foul on the wrap, I don't understand that." There was one other missed call, as the league said Nets guard Spencer Dinwiddie should've been called for a carry with 1:45 remaining. The league also announced Saturday afternoon that Jared Dudley had been fined $25,000 and Jimmy Butler $15,000 for their roles in escalating the fracas that briefly spilled into the stands midway through the third quarter following a hard foul on Allen by Joel Embiid. Embiid was called for a flagrant foul on the play, which league sources told ESPN would stand as called and not be downgraded retroactively to a common foul. That means Embiid remains with two flagrant foul points, putting him halfway to an automatic one-game suspension, which kicks in when a player reaches four flagrant foul points in the playoffs. Brooklyn and Philadelphia resume their series Tuesday at Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, where the Sixers will try to close out the series.<doc-sep>Saturday’s Game 4 between the Brooklyn Nets and the Philadelphia 76ers might have gone a whole lot differently if a foul was called in favor of Jarrett Allen in the waning seconds. In the NBA’s latest Last Two Minute Report, the league came to the conclusion that the 76ers’ Tobias Harris grabbed Allen by wrapping his arm around him during the pick. The move restricted Allen’s movement. Sean Marks may have had different beef, but Kenny Atkinson was right to have an issue w/ Tobias Harris getting away w/ a "wrap" foul on Jarrett Allen's roll to the basket before his game-deciding turnover. pic.twitter.com/m0gW597J3d — John Schuhmann (@johnschuhmann) April 21, 2019 The would-be foul occurred with the 76ers up 110-108 with less than 20 seconds remaining in the game. Allen receives a pass from D’Angelo Russell, but could not reach the basket he was driving toward. Instead, he found himself in-between three 76ers players and coughed up the ball, helping seal the win for Philadelphia. Had Allen had a clear lane, he would have potentially made it in time to the basket to shoot a layup or dunk to tie the game at 110. Instead, the Nets were forced to foul Harris in order to regain possession. The 76ers won the game 112-108 and will look to close out the series on Tuesday in Game 5. In the interim, both Jared Dudley and Jimmy Butler have been assessed fines for their role in an on-court incident. Nets general manager Sean Marks was also fined and suspended for one game for confronting referees in the postgame.

However, the Sixers may have gotten away with one. According to the league’s “Last Two-Minute Report”, the officials missed a Harris “wrap” foul on Allen that would have sent him to the free throw line with a chance to tie the game late.

It is what it is. There was also something on Spencer Dinwiddie and the carry or what not. The game’s finished, we got the win. “Clearly they said it was a foul so it is what it is. I don’t feel sorry, you know what I mean? It is what it is.” A lot has been made about the call and Nets general manager Sean Marks even entered the referee locker room to plead his case for his team. He has since been suspended a game and fined $25,000. Coach Brett Brown gives the league credit for even releasing a report like this one. “I respect that they’re trying to be transparent,” he said. “The refs make mistakes and I applaud the league for having the guts to put that out and own stuff.” Harris and the Sixers will look to close out the Nets on Tuesday in Game 5 at 8:00 p.m. EST from Philadelphia.<doc-sep>
The NBA acknowledged a missed critical call at the end of Game 4 between the Philadelphia 76ers and Brooklyn Nets. According to the league's Last Two Minute Report, Sixers forward Tobias Harris should have been called for a foul for wrapping his arm around Nets center Jarrett Allen in the final seconds of the game, prior to an Allen turnover. Brooklyn was down two points at the time, so the play was critical. The Sixers went on to pull out a 112-108 victory in the game for a commanding 3-1 series lead. They can close out Brooklyn in Game 5 (8 p.m. ET -- watch on fuboTV). Nets head coach Kenny Atkinson saw the foul occur in real-time, and spoke about it to media members directly after the game. "So the big point of emphasis this year was the wrapping, wrapping the player when he rolls to the rim," Atkinson said. "Judge for yourself if you watch the clip, but there was a clear wrap by Tobias Harris on the roll ... How that all of a sudden does not become a foul on a wrap, I just don't understand. I looked at the clip 10 times, it's a clear wrap." Nets general manager Sean Marks was also unhappy with the officiating during the game, as he was suspended and fined for entering the referee's off-limits locker room following Game 4. The game between the two teams teams was a chippy one that saw two players -- Jared Dudley and Jimmy Butler -- ejected for pushing, and another -- Joel Embiid -- given a flagrant foul. According to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, Marks was "livid" after Embiid didn't earn an ejection from the game. Clearly - based on the L2M -- the Nets had good reason to be upset. However, calls get missed in the league constantly and teams overcome it, so the Nets' front office and coaching staff probably could have handled their frustration a bit better.
