Hi, everybody. We are all very full and very hungover from the holidays here at Spencer's.

So we wanted to reshare another episode this week that originally ran when we were in our

infancy and only our parents knew the show existed. Something that's been a huge, huge, huge wake-up

call in basketball, specifically the past couple of years, is that rules can change and be tweaked, and seasons can be played in bubbles, and play in games can be added, and so can replace them players for anyone on your roster with COVID.

This is an episode about rules, specifically one rule made in 2001 that changed basketball's aesthetic forever.

Welcome to spinsters, the podcast where we are never defensive.

I'm Haley O'Shaughnessy.

I'm a recovering basketball writer.

I'm Jordan Liggins.

I'm an editor at Mojo.

Haley, what are we doing today?

I did a deep, deep dive on something.

But before I tell you what that is, I want you to tell me what I asked you before the show,

which was what is the wildest call

you've seen recently in an NBA game?

Yes.

So the first thing that came to my mind was February 2020, Jazz versus the Blazers, and the

goaltending no call that would have tied the game.

You know, Dame had 42 points that game.

It was Rudy Goldberg.

Good old Rudy.

Just starting off a horrible 2020 for him.
