at the hands of the Houston Rockets. It was a loose ball foul that gave Jalen Green two free throws which put the Rockets ahead by one, 91-90 with 3.5 seconds to go.Most generally agreed that the call was a bit suspect given the context. It was a loose ball that the Rockets had possession of in their backcourt. Kerr said after the game he thought it would have been better to give Houston a timeout and let the players determine the outcome of the game, not free throws.
Golden State ran one final set play after the free throws on which Brandin Podziemski attempted a three which missed badly. Golden State led by six with 1:20 left in the game.
