Klay knew the refs could review the block/charge? He's lying ‘a hundred million percent'

With 36.4 seconds left in Game 1 and the Warriors down by two points, Kevin Durant was called for charging.

Or was he?

The officials reviewed the play and overturned it. LeBron James was instead called for a blocking foul, and Durant made both free throws to tie the game at 104-104.

“I actually knew the rule, you know?” Klay Thompson told The Athletic's Ethan Strauss. “I knew that the block-charge was reviewable."

Did Klay actually know? According to Zaza Pachulia, the odds that Klay is lying are "a hundred million percent."

What isn't a lie -- Klay battled through a left leg injury to score 24 points on 8-for-16 from the field.
