The Golden State Warriors’ run to their third consecutive trip to the Finals hasn’t had much drama on the scoreboard, but their Western Conference finals series against the San Antonio Spurs continues to be quite chippy.
From Zaza Pachulia’s questionable closeout on Kawhi Leonard that reinjured his ankle to LaMarcus Aldridge’s suspicious defense on Kevin Durant that left some wondering if it were payback, the back-and-forth between the teams has only increased as the series has unfolded.
The latest questionable play occurred late in the Warriors’ 120-108 win in Game 3. Spurs center Dewayne Dedmon set a screen on Steph Curry with 4:36 left in the fourth quarter and Golden State holding a 17-point lead.
