AITB for wanting to watch the game live instead of rewinding?

Both my wife and I are big NBA fans and have been watching the playoffs every night there's a game. But the other evening we were watching Spurs/Thunder game 1 after coming home late from picking up our kid from an after-school event, and I wanted to tune in live because I had already seen the score on my phone.

My wife usually records the games in case we can't watch one, so she said we should restart and watch from the beginning. I thought it was a waste of time since we already knew the score and it was late. But she said if we were just going to watch half the game, may as well go to bed and check the score in the morning. This is where I may have overreacted, but I said fine and went to bed. I had a long day at work and then we had the event at our kid's school, and I just wanted to unwind for an hour or so, and not be up super late.

She decided to watch the game from the beginning and sleep on the couch so she didn't "disturb me," which I felt was just further salting the wound because she's never had an issue coming into bed late before. I am a HEAVY sleeper. In the end, she got to see a great game that went into double OT, so maybe IATB.
