Steve Kerr: NBA Playoff Rules 'Seems Strange' for Technical Fouls, Suspensions

Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr is not a fan of the NBA's rule that players are suspended for a game after accumulating seven technical fouls during the postseason.

"Well, if we go to Finals, I think Draymond (Green) and Kevin (Durant) are each on pace for about 42 technicals and six suspensions, so hopefully we can withstand that," Kerr joked, per Tim MacMahon of ESPN.com.

He added more seriously:

"I will never understand the rule that everybody falls under the exact same category, in terms of whether you lose in four games in the first round or you play 25 games and you go to the Finals, that it's the same technical fouls points that lead to a suspension.
