The Boston Celtics managed to secure a tough win on the road against the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday, but it did not come without a bit of controversy in what was a very chippy game that saw two Warriors go down injured in the game.
The injury to superstar guard Steph Curry, in particular, generated quite a bit of in-game controversy after veteran guard Marcus Smart landed on his ankles diving for a loose ball early in the game. It was enough to get Golden State head coach Steve Kerr to initiate an exchange with the Flower Mound native after the play that started with ire but seemed to quickly resolve itself after the two spoke.
Several Celtics were asked about the play postgame, starting with Boston head coach Ime Udoka, who related that “the play that they were complaining about was totally legal and not malicious,” in his view.
