As already reported, Porziņģis scored 14 points and won six rebounds, but the Mavericks conceded 110: 118 in the first game of the Orlando elimination tournament in the Los Angeles Clippers and won 0-1 in the Western Conference quarter-finals. For the filmmaker, the game ended prematurely when he went to defend teammate Luka Dončič, who clashed with Clippers striker Markus Morris and earned a second technical note.
Immediately after the episode, the Lakers star James called the judges’ decision silly on Twitter. Novickis, on the other hand, wrote that such a decision was “soft”.
Other NBA players also tried to defend the Latvian. Kevin Lavs of the Cleveland Cavaliers wrote, “Kristap can’t be expelled for this episode. He defended Mavs’ best player. It was bad.”
Spencer Dinvidijs, a member of the Brooklyn “Nets” team member of Rodion Kuruc, who does not play due to injury, also stated that such decisions are not necessary in the playoffs.
