Steve Kerr caught blasting ‘bulls–t’ Lakers favoritism on hot mic in Warriors loss

During Wednesday's season opener, Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr was caught on a broadcast microphone criticizing officiating standards. While speaking to rookie Yaxel Lendeborg, Kerr suggested that the home-court environment in Los Angeles influenced the referees to call fouls that would be ignored elsewhere.

The Lakers ultimately defeated the Warriors 127-105, with Luka Doncic recording 28 points and drawing nine free throws during his matchup against Lendeborg. Despite Kerr's complaints regarding the officiating, the final box score shows the Lakers committed 25 fouls compared to 19 by the Warriors, with both teams attempting 27 free throws.
