In the Clippers’ Game 5 win over the Warriors, Patrick Beverley – while holding his shoe, which fell off the previous possession – drew a charge on Draymond Green. The players got tangled, and then Green got a technical foul.
Golden State coach Steve Kerr, via Mark Medina of The Mercury News:
The Warriors are agitated.
Beverley is a pest, and he’s getting under Golden State’s skin. He has been instrumental in setting a tone for the tenacious Clippers. Flop or not, his plan is working to perfection.
It’s a little wild to see Kerr so strongly call out an opposing player, but he has done this before. For many coaches, that’d be seen as unbecoming. But when you keep winning, you get more leeway.
