Phoenix Suns head coach Frank Vogel expressed frustration with the officiating following his team’s recent 118-110 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder, particularly highlighting uncalled fouls against Suns superstar Kevin Durant.
In a postgame interview, Vogel emphasized, “We got to be better. I’ll start by saying they fouled the sh*t out of Kevin Durant all night. Whether he has the ball, he’s in script three or four, maybe five times every time he tries to get open, he’s being held, which is something I really want the league to look at.
“That’s where it started with the turnover problems. But we’ve had issues throughout the year. This team is number one in the league in forcing turnovers. We didn’t handle their pressure well enough and their length.”
Durant finished the game with 20 points on a 6-of-15 shooting in 36 minutes of play.
