MINNEAPOLIS -- The Golden State Warriors were furious with the officials following several "mind-boggling" calls late in a 131-130 overtime loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves on Friday night.
The call that seemed to upset Warriors coach Steve Kerr and his players the most came with 4.4 seconds left in overtime and the Warriors trailing 130-127. Warriors forward Kevin Durant caught an inbounds pass and turned quickly to shoot a 3 and tie the game. Referee Marat Kogut whistled for a foul, emphatically saying that the foul by Timberwolves swingman Keita Bates-Diop came before Durant was in the act of shooting.
