Celtics star Jaylen Brown criticizes officials after loss to Spurs

BOSTON (AP) — After Boston lost 100-95 to the San Antonio Spurs on Saturday night, Celtics star Jaylen Brown didn’t hesitate to criticize officials in a postgame interview that was filled with expletives.

“I wish someone would come up with the clip,” he said. “Every time we play a good team it’s the same thing. It’s like they refuse to call and they’re on the other end making a touch call. It’s just very frustrating.”

He went on to say that he hoped someone would watch the videos to see why he was upset.

“Someone please pull it up,” he said, standing in the locker room. “Every time we play a good team, the inconsistencies are crazy. … I was angry about the way they refereed the game today.”

The Spurs went to the free throw line 20 times and made 14 of them. Boston only took 4 free throws and made 3 of them.

He even mentioned an official by name – Curtis Blair.

“Curtis and all those guys were terrible tonight,” he said. “I don’t care. They can punish me however they want.”

The NBA frequently fines players who use profanity in interviews. Suns guard Jalen Green was recently fined $25,000 for using profanity during postgame interviews with teammates.
