On the same day, the Lake Nets were all involved in the whirlpool of public opinion, the Lakers lost the game and broke out infighting, the Nets were the assistant coaching god operations caused controversy, and the Wizards Humming Ha Ii Kuzma and Harrell angrily denounced the behavior.
With 5 minutes and 45 seconds left in the fourth quarter of the game, Dinwiddie passed the ball to Kuzma, and the off-court Nets assistant coach Van der Pur reached out and flicked the ball, changing the trajectory of the ball, the ball rubbed into Kuzma's hand, and then was snatched away by Edwards, and the referee did not react, causing the Wizards to innocently add a mistake.
At that time, Kuzma turned around and deliberately fouled the referee to protest, and the referee directly said that he did not see it. Afterwards, Wizards Chronicles Josie Robbins interviewed referee Ben Taylor on penalty and asked if there was any mechanism or rule that could review the ball. Taylor denied it, saying he hadn't seen the ball deflect.
The Wizards were furious at the result of the penalty, and acting coach Joseph Blair refuted the referee's claim that Van der Poul had met it, and I was unbelievably reacting to the penalty. Kuzma was even more agitated and cursed injustice. Interestingly, Harrell believes the Nets assistant coach is fighting for a short 10-day contract for himself.
The puzzling thing is that the referee is staring in the direction of the pass, and Van der Puer is so obvious that he can turn a blind eye. To know that the Nets only won by 1 point, sometimes the difference will be a thousand miles, the league really should test the professionalism of the referee.
