Near the end of the game, Curry threw his mouthpiece in frustration after picking up his sixth foul.
Curry was angry about several fouls that were called against him throughout the game, as was Kerr, who was fined for his remarks about the officiating.
Curry’s wife Ayesha was rightly upset that her dad was the victim of what she termed racial profiling.
The league precedent for throwing a mouthpiece is a fine in most cases, and the Warriors weren’t anxious about the MVP being suspended for Game 7.
LeBron James added to the Warriors woes with an MVP-like performance as he collected 41 points, 11 assists and eight rebounds. Jason Phillips falls for that, for a flop. They were denied at home this week before losing in Cleveland on Thursday in a game where the Cavaliers held the lead the entire game.
Let’s see how the Golden State Warriors respond to all the adversity in Game 7.
Later, perhaps realizing the harshness and negative attention her tweet attracted, Ayesha deleted the tweet and then tweeted her reasons for the initial tweet and apologized.
“It’s all good. It just hit me and I was like, ‘Who?”
“It was obviously frustrating fouling out in the fourth quarter of a clinching game and not being out there with my teammates”. Quicken Loans Arena security checked the credentials of the father of Curry’s wife, Ayesha, because they thought he looked like Aminzadeh, before determining they were mistaken, an National Basketball Association official said.
The incident resulted in a technical foul and subsequent ejection for Curry. “It was just frustration and I thought it was kind of hilarious how the last two fouls kind of unfolded”.

“I’m happy he threw his mouthpiece”, Kerr said.
