Does the league look at this report and inform the referees after the fact? If no then it isn't a closed loop and therefore pointless.
Expect to see this on the report tomorrow
2022 is the new 2002.
we can all be very proud of the fact that immediately after Samaki Walker's completely un-memorable but totally after the buzzer beater half time shot went in, in the game later decided by Horry's miracle off Vlade's tip, that should have put us up 3-1 the NBA instituted replay policy. The whole world has us to thank.2022 is the new 2002.

That and naming arenas after stupid corporations (Golden1 is ok by me, but Arco and Sleeptrain not so much)!
you know what these late report statements do for fanbases? cause anger and resentment
it does make you wonder why they release them.

Kings did not invent the arena naming rights deal.That and naming arenas after stupid corporations (Golden1 is ok by me, but Arco and Sleeptrain not so much)!
Yeah, it's not just us being biased Kings fans. We get screwed

You guys really know better than that.
I think it's great they release it. It does 2 things that are positive. First, it holds the refs/league accountable for missed calls. They are pretty transparent. I don't know if you've ever gone through those reports extensively but they are about as "pure" as you can be. They will say it's an incorrect call on an OOB throw-in if it came at 5.3 seconds instead of the allotted 5.
Second, I think it does show how many plays they actually do get right. Most of the time, those reports are running at 90%+ call accuracy. The reality is they are decent at what they do. Basketball is one of the hardest sports to officiate. I will admit that the overall level of officiating this year seems to have gone downhill a bit though.
There's literally one other team that got the shaft as much as we did in close finishes, the third team on the list had it happen HALF as many times.I think the concern fans have is that are the 10% they get wrong indicates a skew? Fans are not the most rational people, and us old timers still have extremely unhappy memories. So, it's possible we are finding conspiracies where none exist.
However, it would not surprise me, if refs, as most humans, tend to prefer the home team and Heat over the Kings. Poor officiating is something we can all accept, as long as we feel that it's not biased.
That said, I don't think a day will ever come where fans, particularly from small markets, don't believe the refs/league shafted them on purpose.

I don't think its intentional. 2002 was intentional.
However, it's 100% a case of Kings suck, therefore Kings don't have stars. Star players get calls. Sucky players don't. It becomes self-fulfilling and perpetual to the point that over a 16 year playoff drought the Kings are off the charts in how badly they have gotten screwed.
I'd really love an explanation of why Steph got to keep his 3 pointer other than we didn't want to upset the home crowd.Two horrible no calls, the shot clock violation and then the last second mugging of Red Velvet.... Grrt
