NBA: Officials made correct calls in Warriors-Rockets game

Hindustan Times  

Coach Steve Kerr's blistering criticism of a foul call that went against his Golden State Warriors in the final 11 seconds of their loss to the host Houston Rockets was unwarranted, the NBA announced on Thursday night. HT Image The play in question was a scramble for a loose ball after the Warriors' Stephen Curry missed a 3-point attempt with Golden State leading 90-89 and 11.1 seconds to go. Golden State's Gary Payton II got to the loose ball first and appeared to try to call timeout while down on the court, but he had it poked away by a late-arriving Fred VanVleet amid obvious contact between the two. He also said the game "was taken from us by a call I don't think an elementary school referee would have made, because that guy would have had feel and said, 'You know what? Instead, officials said they didn't clearly see the player attempt to call for a timeout, so the play was ruled a jump ball, and Golden State lost that game 119-115.
