The NBA admitted officials were wrong after conducting a league review on this controversial play.
on Saturday in Game 1 of the Western Conference semifinals. After driving to the hoop for a layup, Edwards stared down Nuggets guard Reggie Jackson for a brief moment and was quickly whistled for a technical foul by referee Courtney Kirkland.
"No, Courtney! I'm sorry!" Miller said on the microphone."We're in the second round of the playoffs. Emotions are always gonna be high." "That's awful. You can't celebrate someone for being a dog and then we call a technical on a staredown," Crawford added.."Stop giving taunting technicals in the game. Nobody came to see you. You give a kid a warning. You don't call no taunting technicals in the playoffs. Don't do that."
The NBA correcting the call resets Edwards's playoff total technical foul count to zero, noteworthy because the league suspends players after seven technical fouls in a single postseason.
