Tuesday night, the Golden State Warriors upset the Dallas Mavericks, who were in fifth place in the Western Conference, 100-104.
Warriors legend Stephen Curry played a supporting role and contributed seven assists, even though he was only able to score 13 points. Even if everything was proceeding as the Dubs wanted, there was one instance that had the officials come under scrutiny yet again.
Consider the issues with the clock or the event that occurred today as evidence that the officials are always biased against Stephen Curry. When the first quarter of today’s game began, Stephen Curry was sprinting with the ball and attempting to find a way to make a layup. He was putting himself in a situation where he would eventually be fouled as he was moving forward.
It was evident that a foul had been committed when Dante Exum and Daniel Gafford attacked him as he attempted to lay up. The play’s slow-mow version has been shared on social media in several videos. Gafford, who prevented him from throwing the ball by placing his hand between his hands, fouled Curry.
This a foul for 99 percent of NBA players…. Except for Steph Curry

Curry also requested a foul, but it was not called, and the officials remained mute throughout the action.
Fans react to Obvious foul not being called in Stephen Curry’s favor
When the play happened, the spectators present in the Arena were also screaming and wanted a foul there. Interestingly enough, even Stephen Curry mentioned many times the biases he got from the NBA officials.
This time too he got the same treatment but people are standing for him. Because of the slow-mow technology, nothing can be kept out of the eyes of the people.
Fans are criticizing the referees and the league for making bad calls. Fans are denouncing this as outright hatred against Curry in several reactions. Sharing a wide spectrum of reactions online, here’s what fans have to say:
“Not a foul” this is disgusting at this point https://t.co/yVME07QtLc pic.twitter.com/z2DjXZunKW

The official is right in front. He’s seeing the entire thing with a front row seat.
That’s not just a missed call. That’s an official observing a blatant foul.and thinking ‘nah, not giving HIM that’.
League is corrupt to the core. https://t.co/jcNK6XoLN6 pic.twitter.com/rqxtFwsOLe

It may not be the last time that this has happened, nor was it the first. The team is qualified to play in the event as they presently hold the 10th spot in the Western Conference. But given their current success, nobody can rule out the Warriors from the postseason.
