The Golden State Warriors and Dallas Mavericks played an excited game on Tuesday night, with the Warriors holding on to win their 5th-straight game. The NBA has released their Last Two Minute Report for this game, and it includes one missed call in the final two minutes of the game.

According to the NBA, Warriors forward Draymond Green should have been called for a defensive three second violation with 1:33 remaining in the game. The NBA determined that every other call or non-call down the stretch of this game was correctly ruled.

This was a big game between two Western Conference teems battling for positioning in the standings. The loss did not drop Dallas below the 5th seed, as they currently have the tiebreaker over the New Orleans Pelicans, but they did lose any cushion they had on that spot.

For Golden State, the win continued what has been one of their best stretches of the season, and while they have more work to do in order to escape the 10th seed, the Warriors have put themselves in position to potentially make a move up the standings in the final two weeks of the season.

Even if Golden State finishes in 10th, their hope is that this stretch of solid play to end the regular season can help them win their way into a playoff spot through the play-in tournament.
