“I saw the kick. But shit happens. I’ve kicked somebody before, so it is what it is.”
Steve Kerr lost his shit at Marcus Smart for injuring Steph Curry diving for a loose ball. But as Smart defends himself for defending all out, he has an ironic ally.

For eight years, Golden State has been the NBA’s best home team.
Wednesday the Celtics beat them for the 6th time in the last 7 tries on their floor,

Spencer Dinwiddie beat the Celtics with a 3-pointer with 9 seconds left in Sunday’s 95-92 win. And he beat the Nets with a dramatic 3-pointer at the buzzer in Wednesday’s 113-111 victory. That dude can flat-out ball.

JTA’s perspective on the Marcus Smart loose ball dive that hurt Curry: “I don’t think it was a dirty play. Could’ve probably been a bit more cautious. But when you play that hard and all you know is to do that…it’s kind’ve like me diving over the scoreboard for the ball.” pic.twitter.com/kyfy7PKx2n – 2:33 AM
