Golden State Warriors

Warriors play-by-play announcer Bob Fitzgerald argued on Murph and Mac Monday morning that the Warriors would’ve lost even if the game was called properly, citing the fact that the Cavs putting on one of the greatest shooting performances in NBA history.

Former NBA referee Tim Donaghy joined KNBR 1050’s The Audible Tuesday morning, where he expressed thoughts that the league is vying for a Game 6 because of the massive revenue it would bring.

The LeBron-loving Nick Wright from Fox Sports joined The Audible on 1050 this morning to discuss the ways in which the Cavaliers can steal Game 5 in Oakland on Monday night. Spoiler alert: He thinks Cleveland will win.

The NBA released an interview transcript with the two referees involved in Game 4’s technical foul confusion that left most thinking Draymond Green was ejected even though he was not.

The Warriors entered Game 4 of the NBA Finals with a chance to become the first team in NBA history to finish 16-0 in the postseason. The Cavaliers, however, had other plans. LeBron James, Kyrie Irving, and Kevin Love combined for 94 points as the Cavs cruised to a 137-116 win on Friday night, forcing a Game 5 in Oakland on Monday.

With that said, the Warriors did not say anything Friday postgame that will levy a $25,000 fines. They didn’t want to be whiners. They are wearing this loss on the chin, and apparently had a very productive conversation after the loss before reporters infiltrated the premises.

After a frustrating Game 4 loss in which he was initially ejected before being allowed to stay in the game, Draymond Green held a lively press session with reporters in the locker room, and had some choice words Cleveland residents.

A fan sitting court side, with close ties to LeBron James according to ESPN, was tossed by security during the third quarter, after getting into a verbal altercation with Matt Barnes.

To say the refs have had a rough Game 4 would be an understatement.

Aside from Kevin Durant’s dagger three-point shot that put the Warriors up with just 45 seconds remaining, the second-most important play in Game 3 may have been Andre Iguodala’s stripping of LeBron James, as he attempted a game-tying three with 12 seconds on the clock.
