In this story:

The Golden State Warriors got one of the easiest baskets in NBA history Wednesday night in Dallas. It’s a play that has the Mavs protesting the game and it’s a play that we can’t stop laughing at. 

In case you missed it, the Mavs thought they had the ball coming out of a timeout... but that wasn’t the case. Instead, the Warriors were given possession under their own basket and they did what you should do when there isn’t a defender even close to the ball - they got an easy two points. 

This play is hilarious every time you watch it: 

The Warriors ended up winning the game by two points so, yeah, that play was huge!
