The Warriors "beat" Gobert by the referee allowed the Timberwolves Appeal League!

On May 8, Minnesota Timberwolves coach Chris Finch said they had submitted a video clip to the league office showing some rough physical contact between the Warriors on G1 of the series, and none of those rounds called fouls. In that game, the Timberwolves lost to the Warriors 88-99 at home.

"While fighting against the defensive rebounds, they made a lot of fouls against Rudy (Gobert), pushing, pulling, and hitting him. The video is clear, we sent all those clips to the league. In fact, I'm not sure which player at the level of Rudy in the league is allowed to be treated like this. So we have to find a way to solve this problem," Finch said.

Timberwolves G1 lost to the Warriors 41-51 in rebounding, and Gobert scored 11 rebounds. In the first round of G5's game, Gobert's rebounds were 24. Finch mentioned a round intently. At some moment in the second quarter, Gobert was called for a foul, but at that time, Warriors defender Podgemski obviously pulled Gobert, and the French Tower just wanted to break free.

"We will definitely be treated as fair as possible, and I think that's the essence of sports. But when you see those clips, what about them, they pull Rudy like playing rugby," Finch said.

G1 Timberwolves were slapped for 21 fouls, and the Warriors had 18, but the Wolves had more free throws than the Warriors, and the two teams were 17-15.

But it is not the only complaining about Wolves, Warriors coach Cole also has something to say. He believes that the Timberwolves also had many foul moves when defending Curry, and those also did not get a whistle. In the end, Curry left the court due to a strained left hamstring in the second half of the second quarter. Cole believes that the Timberwolves are like the Rockets, constantly pulling Curry when he moves without the ball.

"I was frustrated 10 minutes before the game, just like when I was playing against the Rockets. They beefed up Stephen (Curry), and 6 of them could be fouled, but the league has decided to allow more physical confrontations in the playoffs. In my opinion, everything happens in the game now is crazy, and everyone is fouling each other. I think the referee's job is really hard, because basketball is already fierce in the playoffs, and the league now allows more confrontations, but I think Curry has been fouled 6 or 7 times without choking," Cole said.
