Golden State Warriors’ Stephen Curry and Steve Kerr have both been fined $25,000 by the NBA for separate incidents that occurred during and after Game 6 of the NBA Finals on Thursday night, the league announced Friday morning.

“Let me be clear, we did not lose because of the officiating”, Kerr said. “I won’t be silent”. Before the game, she tweeted that her cousin hadn’t been allowed into a Cleveland area casino earlier Thursday because he was wearing Warriors gear.

Sunday will see a victor takes all match that will either see Cleveland complete the greatest comeback in NBA Finals history, becoming the first team to rally from a 3-1 deficit to claim the crown, or the Warriors crowned as the most successful season in league history with a championship repeat.
