**SPEAKER_1** (0:00)
This has a one in a thousand chance of happening. This has a one in a million chance of happening. And this has a one in a billion chance of happening. But first, we're starting with one in a hundred.

**SPEAKER_2** (0:12)
Aaron Eastman went right into the parking lot. Where'd he go? Oh, there he is.

**SPEAKER_1** (0:16)
And if that stare down wasn't enough, it's only gonna get rarer from there, starting with this. Was he taking a jump shot?

**SPEAKER_3** (0:24)
Come on, now, Scott.

**SPEAKER_1** (0:25)
How the ref's gonna do him like that? However, I can't say the same for this next moment.

**SPEAKER_3** (0:29)
And he's bringing had that rattle half way down and then stopped.

**SPEAKER_1** (0:34)
Olafron doing chin ups, trying to shake it loose.

**SPEAKER_3** (0:36)
James got a lot of energy for year number 17

**SPEAKER_1** (0:40)
But what's even rarer is this dunk going wrong.

**SPEAKER_3** (0:43)
Smith Bob James.

**SPEAKER_2** (0:46)
You know, you don't always see something new every night.

**SPEAKER_3** (0:49)
I have never seen that.

**SPEAKER_1** (0:51)
Yeah, what if I told you that none of this is real? Instead, we're living in virtual reality.

**SPEAKER_2** (0:56)
He plays with a lot of swag.

**SPEAKER_3** (0:58)
What?

**SPEAKER_1** (0:59)
Not even the NBA is safe from glitches, although fans aren't safe either. It could be a playoff game in the most exciting of moments. We never know when the sleep monster will take its next victim. Damn, that's one expensive nap. And yet, that's not even the most expensive nap because the 76ers spent $69 million for once.
Wow, James Harden is better half-sleep than the rest of us at full strength. However, it's time to stop feeling sleepy and start paying attention. Because on what planet is this not a traffic? Safe to say, the refs got paid off. But what's also crazy is what happened to Furkan Korkmus. Because one second he's fighting for a ball, and the next second, he's getting manhandled.

**SPEAKER_3** (1:49)
It's high up or foul? It is a foul.

**SPEAKER_1** (1:54)
Not gonna lie, the Greek freak let him off easy. However, I can't say the same for this next moment.

**SPEAKER_3** (1:59)
Wiggins from the wing.

**SPEAKER_1** (2:02)
Oh, it did a victory lap. Hey, somebody call 911 The rim almost gave Andrew Wiggins a heart attack. But which is worse, a heart attack or get it technical for kicking another man's shoes?

**SPEAKER_3** (2:15)
He stays back to get Andy out, and he dropped the season high of 35 points. I just lost a shoe and Marc Gasol just kicked it. Oh, they teed him up.

**SPEAKER_1** (2:22)
Last eye checks? That ain't it, Chief. But neither is this.

**SPEAKER_3** (2:27)
Deron Sharp had no idea that the ball had connected.

**SPEAKER_1** (2:31)
Dang, my bro really just went AFK. But at least he didn't have to go against Steven Adams.

**SPEAKER_3** (2:35)
Steven Adams.

**SPEAKER_1** (2:35)
They give Steven Adams some hands.

**SPEAKER_2** (2:37)
Wow! The one-hander from half court. Wow!

**SPEAKER_1** (2:41)
I was gonna say, that's the second percentage buster that they've given him. Sheesh, I'm not sure which is more impressive, the shot or the hair. On the other hand, the 2019 Toronto Raptors were so impressive, they made Jason Tatum wish he was never born.
Um, I only got two words for you, access denied. However, Tatum isn't the only one going through it. Long before Tatum came a very special someone, Michael Jeffrey Jordan. And that's when the unthinkable happened. It's not often a player sells a fast break, but Michael Jordan selling, that's next to impossible. And if that play finally settles the goat debate, I have bad news for you, Lebron did the exact same thing.

**SPEAKER_2** (3:31)
James ahead of the pot goes up. I can't ever remember seeing that from him.

**SPEAKER_1** (3:40)
Maybe Father Tom has finally called him the King's name. And if Lebron is getting too old, then maybe Anthony Davis is too. After all, he once got a technical for failing to tie his shoe.

**SPEAKER_3** (3:50)
AD falls down. Turnover. So he just lost his footing as he came down to earth and lost his shoe through a shoe and crossed it.
Oh, AD has been tossed.

**SPEAKER_1** (4:03)
Well, I'll be damned. The rest weren't having any of it. Oh, and if you thought that technical was unusual, yes, again. The top gets it.

**SPEAKER_3** (4:10)
James on the drive, gets in the paint.

**SPEAKER_1** (4:15)
And the game is over.

**SPEAKER_3** (4:17)
Lakers furious. They thought he was fouled.

**SPEAKER_1** (4:21)
And it's now overtime.
Bring it out of camera? That's when you know the ref's messed up. But Jaden McDaniels also messed up. Because when his team needed him the most, he was out here punching wall. You can see Jaden McDaniels right here. When he swings, he grabs his hand immediately. Who did it better, Andy Bernard or Jaden McDaniels? Speaking of which, Blake Griffin almost missed the game for an even dumber reason. He was too busy giving high fives.
