Minnesota Timberwolves head coach Chris Finch delivered a scathing critique of NBA officials following his team's game, referencing what he perceived as outdated officiating tendencies regarding Charlotte Hornets guard LaMelo Ball. "I thought we got rid of that stuff in the '80s," Finch said, expressing frustration with the foul calls awarded to Ball during the contest.
The comments came after a game in which Ball drew numerous foul calls that Finch believed were questionable. The Timberwolves coach suggested the officiating reflected a style of play the league had moved past decades ago. Finch's remarks highlight ongoing tensions between coaches and officials regarding star player treatment and consistency in foul calling across the league.
