The officiating was far less of a narrative than in Sunday’s spicy Game 1, probably because there was so much else to talk about. James Harden headed to the locker room in the first quarter with a lacerated left eyelid and struggled with his vision throughout, yet he still managed to lead his team back into contention late on. For all the acrimony to open the series, Draymond Green and Kevin Durant both went to check on Harden following his injury.
That call prompted a sarcastically over-the-top celebration from Chris Paul, but in truth, all the pregame hype about what fouls would be whistled for and missed, and the potential impact of official Scott Foster, proved to be overblown.
