Postgame – Golden State at New York – October 26, 2018

NBA Crew Chief Scott Foster met with pool reporter Howard Beck of Bleacher Report after the game between the Warriors and Knicks in New York today. Here is the transcript of that interview:

Q: Why did DeMarcus Cousins get ejected?

Scott Foster: Kanter and Cousins were warned prior to the ejection about talking to the bench, Cousins took exception to the ruling and during the timeout he was ejected for one technical foul for unsportsmanlike conduct.

Q: Can I get a clarification on why it was only on one technical foul as opposed to getting the latitude of two technical fouls?

Scott Foster: We just felt like one technical was suffice for a player not in the game.

Q: Was it also based on the content of what he said?

Scott Foster: More so the way of which he stated what he stated.
