The Chicago Bulls had a chance to pick up a huge road win over the Indiana Pacers on Wednesday. Zach LaVine drove and drew a clear foul from Victor Oladipo at the end of regulation with the score tied. Yet, there was no foul call as the refs swallowed their whistles and the Bulls went on to lose in overtime.

This is brutal. LaVine did throw his arms up a bit theatrically, but that move came after the obvious foul. Blown calls like this cannot happen at the end of professional basketball games and it was the difference between winning and losing for a Bulls team fighting for a playoff spot.
