The Christmas Day epic between the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Golden State Warriors was the best regular season NBA game in recent memory. However, as great as that game was, it was equally controversial because of two perceived missed calls in the final moments.

First, the officials swallowed their whistles when LeBron James hung on the rim after completing a thunderous dunk with just under two minutes to go. Many thought it was an obvious technical foul, but in the heat of the moment the refs let it go.
