James is dissatisfied with the stadium s "FBI-level surveillance" and the camera was borrowed from the crew of "Crime Scene Investigation"?

On May 27, in the latest episode of "Mind the Game", James talked about the Sky Eye Camera and asked in a slightly helpless and teasing tone: "Where did this thing come out? I have never seen such a shooting angle in the years I have been playing basketball."

His confusion stems from the dramatic scene in the G5 of the Lakers and Timberwolves series. James was intercepted by the Timberwolves player when serving the sideline. Edwards broke through and slipped and the referee whistle sounded, but the challenge replay reversed the situation. The Sky Eye system clearly restored the contact between James' hand and the opponent's arm at the moment of stealing, and was eventually changed to a foul by the thug. In the slow-motion replay, James' fingertips were still 3 cm away from the basketball, but they accurately "hit" Edwards' forearm. This millimeter-level penalty accuracy made James call it "unacceptable" after the game. He cited the classic NBA penalty principle that "hands are part of the ball" to refute, believing that this level of contact should not have been called, but the high-definition picture made all defenses pale and powerless.

What embarrasses James is that this is not the first time that he has become a topic of online talks because of the "Sky Eye". In the G2 game, he was recorded in the entire high-definition camera for a "tactical fall". When the opponent broke through, he staggered back first, but bounced up instantly after glimpsing the referee's gesture. This fake fall action comparable to an Oscar-level performance was made into a "medical miracle" emoji package by netizens and spread wildly on social media. This sense of powerlessness of "getting tech" made James repeatedly ask on the show: "Where are those cameras hiding? Why do they always capture the moments I don't want to be seen the most?"

In the show, James asked Nash, "Where did this thing come from?" Nash said: "I haven't seen it before. And it doesn't look high-definition, like GoPro in 2006." James sighed: "The whole style is like "Crime Scene Investigation". I thought to myself, what the hell is this? Oh my god." The helpless James finally revealed the complex emotions in the interview: "I hate being scrutinized by 360 degrees, but I don't want to see someone win by taking advantage of opportunities."

AI auxiliary referee system was introduced to the NBA in the mid-2020s. Multi-spectral imaging, three-dimensional motion capture and other technologies have completely subverted the traditional judgment logic. In today's arena, a net of 12 4K-level omnidirectional cameras and millimeter-wave radars can analyze player movements at a speed of 2,000 frames per second, and can even restore the mechanical data of the collision moment through bone tracking technology. This "microscopic" penalty standard makes the vague "reasonable collision zone" of the past clear, but also makes the rhythm of the game fragmented due to frequent replays. According to statistics, after the Sky Eye system was activated this season, the average regular season game duration was extended by 12 minutes, and the number of players sprints in a single game was reduced by 8%. Even the commentators began to complain that "the game was cut into countless stop-motion animations with 0.5 times the speed."
