After hitting a miraculous corner three-pointer with .5 seconds left in overtime against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Friday night, Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry got in the face of official Marat Kogut and had to be pulled away by teammate DeMarcus Cousins.
The Warriors took exception to Kogut's officiating throughout the game, and after the Warriors ended up losing due to a controversial call on the game's final possession, Curry called Kogut "the MVP of tonight."

The Warriors were down 130-127 with four seconds left in overtime when Kevin Durant hit an apparent game-tying three-pointer and was fouled on the play, which would have sent him to the line for a go-ahead free throw attempt.
