After the fans saw this slow-motion replay, they were even more dissatisfied and directly rebuked the referee. Because of this wrongful judgment, Clay was given 3 fouls.
After Garland went to the free throw line, Curry, as the boss of the team, also walked over to the referee to negotiate, although it has been impossible to change the blow penalty, but Curry's conversation this time is obviously also putting pressure on the referee, hoping that the referee can be more accurate in the subsequent blow penalty.
