NBA regular season, the Warriors lost to the Lakers 144-145 in double overtime, this is the Warriors' second consecutive game, both lost by one point, the last game they lost to the Kings 133-134, Curry was very frustrated after the game, he tore his jersey and expressed anger, and Kerr was dissatisfied with the number of free throws in an interview, and only James said admirably.
After the game, the first to be interviewed was Kerr, who talked about the game and said: I actually want to comment on how many free throws the Lakers made, but my mom is not here, I want to perform better, so I won't comment on the free throw ratio is 43-16, let alone say that Curry only made three free throws in 43 minutes of playing time.
From Kerr's post-game interview, it can be seen that he is very dissatisfied with the penalty, and he has been forgiving the number of free throws, after all, as long as the referee is bombarded, only the NBA fine is waiting for Kerr, so he can only euphemistically express his dissatisfaction, the whole game, the Lakers got 43 free throws, hit 38 times, and among the 9 players on the court, 7 players got free throws, James, thick eyebrows, Reaves, Russell, Vanderbilt made more than 6 free throws. The Warriors made 16 free throws and hit 11 of them, and only Wiggins, Kuminga, Curry, Podemski and TJD made free throws, while Klay and Dream did not make a single free throw.
In fact, I personally believe that the number of free throws is not only related to the referee, but also to the team's style of play. According to the data given by the NBA, the Lakers have made 705 more free throws this season than all opponents, making the most free throws in the league, while the Warriors have made 497 fewer free throws than all opponents, the fewest free throws in the league. In this game, the Warriors made 58 three-point shots, and the Lakers only made 27 three-point shots.
Curry scored 46 points in this game, but the team still lost, and when he returned to the locker room, he looked frustrated, tore his jersey angrily, and vented his anger in his heart.
James was also interviewed after the game, saying: "When you retire and my grandchildren are watching these games together, I would say I competed against one of the best players of all time, and for me, it's a pleasure to be able to compete with Curry on the court, and at this point in my career, to be able to push each other together, you can't take it for granted." "James is really a high emotional intelligence, and he speaks without leakage, which is really admirable.
