The Pool Report interview was conducted by Rod Boone (Charlotte Observer) with Crew Chief Bill Kennedy following tonight’s Nuggets at Hornets game.

QUESTION:  What was the reason for Montrezl Harrell’s first technical foul tonight?

KENNEDY: Harrell was assessed his first technical foul for stepping over his opponent [Austin] Rivers in an unsportsmanlike manner resulting in a taunting technical foul.

QUESTION:  Why was Harrell assessed a second technical foul and ejected?

KENNEDY: Harrell and [Aaron] Gordon were assessed double technical fouls for physically taunting each other, resulting in an ejection of Harrell.

QUESTION:  So, Aaron’s technical foul was because he was physically taunting Harrell?

KENNEDY: Yes.
