Well, that was quite a crazy and controversial ending to Friday night's game between the Oklahoma City Thunder and Milwaukee Bucks. It's really too bad that such an exciting game had to end with a missed call by the refs on a dunk by Bucks star forward Giannis Antetokounmpo over Thunder star guard Russell Westbrook.
From the replay, it looks very clear that Giannis' foot indeed stepped out of bounds when he had possession of the basketball before his dunk. After the game, Westbrook opened up about the missed call in a video captured on Twitter by Fred Katz of the Norman Transcript.
“I mean, I couldn't see it because I was trying to stop it. But I have to think you've seen it, so it's over now. It don't matter,” Westbrook said.

This has to be an absolutely gut-wrenching way to lose a game. The Thunder, who trailed at one point 33-11 in the first quarter, stormed back in the second half and eventually tied the game on Westbrook's three-pointer with 4.7 seconds left in regulation.
Oklahoma City had its six-game winning streak snapped by Milwaukee. Westbrook, who had a season-high 40 points on an eye-opening 16-of-34 shots from the field, was just shy of a triple-double with 14 rebounds and nine assists.
