The NBA world spent plenty of time poking fun at ESPN over its broadcasting issues during Wednesday’s Spurs-Lakers game, when the broadcast cut away to commercials in the middle of the contest.
Not only that, Lakers guard Josh Hart was going up for a potential game-winning layup at the time, so it was a pretty important sequence in the game. Viewers, however, didn’t even get to see it, as they were stuck watching commercials.

If you were watching the final 4 seconds of the Spurs-Lakers tied game on ESPN, you missed the final play due to a commercial cutting in

The Nets had some fun at ESPN’s expense on Thursday, when they shared a clip of former Lakers point guard D’Angelo Russell driving to the hoop, and then edited it to cutaway at the most important moment.
