Warriors owner Joe Lacob throws jacket after awful foul call

The officials during Tuesday night’s Golden State Warriors-Oklahoma City Thunder game called one of the worst fouls we’ve ever seen, and it was so bad it caused Warriors owner Joe Lacob to lose his mind.

Late in the third quarter, OKC’s Russell Westbrook was driving to the basket when he slipped and fell. Seeing Westbrook on the ground led one of the officials to call a foul. Kevin Durant was called for it, simply because of his proximity to Westbrook:

It was truly an awful call as there was no physical contact made.

Lacob was so furious that he threw his jacket to the ground. Take a look:

That terrible call absolutely deserved that kind of reaction.
