Los Angeles Lakers head coach JJ Redick took a subtle shot at NBA officials after his team's ugly win over the Phoenix Suns on Sunday.

Marcus Smart played a role in carrying the momentum forward and the Lakers led 99-79 with under eight minutes to go in the game. The Lakers had a chance to extend the lead even further when Smart received a perfect outlet pass on a fastbreak from LeBron James.

That is, unless you're JJ Redick, because he lives for these types of situations. He got to do so today as the Los Angeles Lakers hacked out a 116-114 victory over the pesky Phoenix Suns. Those things – the collapse, the technicals, and the barbs – all happened in this game.
