The NBA modified the policy for its Two-Minute Report starting this season, choosing to issue them now for any game within three points in the final two minutes of a fourth quarter or overtime rather than five points previously.
Either way, many coaches and players aren't sure just what's the point.
The reports debuted in March 2015 as one of several league "transparency" initiatives intended to build awareness and understanding of the game's rules and processes.
The one the NBA released last week that determined officials missed not one but two calls in the final five seconds of the Timberwolves' buzzer-beating victory at Oklahoma City didn't make Thunder coach Billy Donovan feel any better or worse about Andrew Wiggins' winning three-pointer.
"The NBA office took care of that, that's their job," Donovan said. "It's unfortunate for us, but if Wiggins' shot doesn't go in, nobody's talking about it."
The league ruled Wolves coach Tom Thibodeau signaled for a timeout his team didn't have after Carmelo Anthony's three-pointer gave the Thunder the lead in a game Oklahoma City trailed almost all night. It also ruled that moments later Wolves big man Karl-Anthony Towns set an illegal screen trying to impede Thunder star Paul George from following Wiggins and the ball up court.
George was knocked down, Wiggins continued on and the Wolves won on a desperation shot.
Asked two days later if his screen was illegal, Towns said he didn't care, all he cared about was that his team won.
