Cowherd nails it. This is seriously a really bad NBA policy. I don't know of any other sport that allows review of a judgment call. Has this ever happened in a playoff game? (let alone in the finals, let alone in the last 30 seconds of regulation). Closest I can think of is a tuck rule, but that's not a penalty call.
Imagine if this was the NFL and a team gets a game-sealing defensive stop. The refs review if a receiver (who was clearly out of bounds) was in bounds for the catch, then decide to call pass interference. Or decides to call roughing the passer. That's what happened last night. And it's pretty messed up.

They can close the game out. We don't have an overtime. We don't have a JR Smith controversy." — <a href="https://twitter.com/ColinCowherd?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@ColinCowherd</a> <a href="https://t.co/580GLemzFf">pic.twitter.com/580GLemzFf</a></p>— Herd w/Colin Cowherd (@TheHerd) <a href="https://twitter.com/TheHerd/status/1002600558794928128?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">June 1, 2018</a></blockquote>
