Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard was less than enthusiastic after missing a shot on a drive to the basket in which he pretty clearly felt he got fouled.
Lillard said immediately after the game that he had been fouled twice on the final possession of Portland’s 102-101 loss to the Dallas Mavericks.
Damian Lillard said he "got fouled two times" on his drive to the basket on the final possession. "But like I said, it should have never came to that. When you score nine points in the fourth quarter, you're going to have a hard time winning the game."

Lillard doubled down on Twitter, retweeting a screenshot of one of the perceived fouls with a pretty blunt criticism.

This is the sort of thing that may show up in the NBA’s L2M reports, which players generally hate. Lillard probably won’t feel any better about it even if the league acknowledges an error.
