Indianapolis Mayor Outlaws Goaltending Before Pacers–Cavaliers Game 6

In a Last Two-Minute report, the NBA admitted that the Cavaliers' LeBron James' block on the Pacers' Victor Oladipo in Game 5 with three seconds left was actually a goaltend.

To be fair, the ball shouldn't have gone to the Pacers in the first place either, according to the report.

But as everyone has likely seen by now, James then won the game 98–95 on the other side of the court with a three-point buzzer beater.

Well, the mayor of Indianapolis won't stand for that injustice, and he outlawed goaltending completely ahead of Game 6 on Friday.

Oh — one more thing. By executive order, I am proud to outlaw goaltending in the City of Indianapolis... for every player, on every team.
