It sounds like Chief Justice Roberts started out by saying "No, the federal government cannot force people to get health care" and those in the room jumped the gun and assumed that meant it was deemed unconstitutional, but he then continued with "but, the federal government absolutely has the right to tax those who don't have it". I believe the whole law was upheld.
