One thought on “It’s called automated officiating. The NBA is using it to get even more calls right.

  1. Sounds promising! The ridiculous further review times have begun to disgust us fans, especially when the game is on the line, or our team is being charged for some foul that never really should have been called. Hopefully some of the arbitrary and unnecessary calls will be eliminated.
    The WNBA has become an excessive stage of game delay computer reviews!
