BOSTON — DeMar DeRozan was adamant.
The Raptors guard had erupted in the moment after his late drive in Sunday's 132-125 loss to the Thunder, angry that no foul had been called on Oklahoma City's Corey Brewer as DeRozan attempted a shot at the rim that would have tied the game.
He was so convinced he'd been hacked on his layup attempt with 33 seconds to play that after the Thunder's ensuing possession, DeRozan earned two technical fouls and an ejection.
On Monday, the NBA said officials were right not to make the call on Brewer.
