After the defeat of the franchise San Francisco for the team Colorado by 120 to 114, the multi-champion coach Steve Kerr he fired at the fouls that have been called and disregarded the league’s refereeing during an interview.

“I have a problem with the way we’re declaring the end of defense in the league, that’s what we’re doing in the NBA. The way we are teaching the referees, we are enabling the players to dig their way to the free throw line.”said the coach, according to the journalist Anthony Slater, from “The Athletic”. The Warriors and Nuggets combined for 55 free throw attempts, 32 for the home team and 18 for the home team alone. Nikola Jokicwho got them all right and broke his personal record in a game.

“We enabled the players and they are making the most of it. It’s a parade at the free throw line and it’s disgusting to watch.”, added the Warriors coach, irritated at how his team was disadvantaged in this regard. Even though Denver is a team that, in the season as a whole, doesn’t go to the free throw line that much, the Warriors are the fourth team that allows the most free throws to their opponents.
