I'm not one to complain about foul calls and non calls. But I don't understand why a ref would call or not call the foul *based on whether or not the shot was made.* Makes no sense, either it's a foul or it's not a foul. At the time I thought Curry very easily could have ended the game at the FT line, rather than going into OT. Most of all, how about some consistency in calls - don't change the way you are calling them based on where in the game you are or other irrelevant factors.
The call that I did think was really bad was when Klay got called for an away from the ball foul vs. Davis, giving the Pels a free throw AND posession. WTF!? I would like to hear some explanation of that call. Under that logic, in the Spurs hack a DJ game just a couple nights earlier, Clippers should have been retaining posession throughout, shouldn't they?
As a Warriors fan, I was also unhappy to see the Draymond Green and Harrison Barnes flops, both of which successfully drew the whistle, even though there was no contact. That's not the way the Warriors play, so maybe that inexplicable call against Klay was a sort of Karmic retribution.
