Golden State Warriors share thoughts on the officiating in loss to San Antonio Spurs
SAN FRANCISCO — Favorable playoff seeding on the line, the Warriors can’t afford to lose winnable games.
In his first start since returning from injury, Draymond Green drew two technicals within an eight-second span and was ejected. Then Klay Thompson fouled Josh Richardson on a 3-point attempt that coach Steve Kerr challenged, only to have the call upheld and upgraded to a flagrant foul. Here’s what the Warriors had to say about how the game was officiated by Ed Malloy, Marat Kogut and Natalie Sago.On the foul calls at the end: “I thought the two fouls at the end were bizarre, bizarre fouls. I was watching the play where Wiggs got fouled, I guess they called the play on Poeltl. Shocked by that one and I was shocked by the one on the rebound. I don’t know how those calls can be made.
