This isn't a reduction of skill. They rushed and no one caught it. NBA officials are very, very good but they're also human.

I saw this online in an NCAA game this past season and I know the officials involved. I felt bad for them but it *was* kind of funny watching the camera pan slowly into the frontcourt to reveal the defense playing a...3...3...zone
