Fans on social media immediately accused Thompson— and even Warriors forward Draymond Green —of making a dirty play in the sequence that led to Butler's injury. But that's not how Warriors coach Steve Kerr saw it.

The play in question happened in Game 2. Butler went up for a defensive rebound after Thompson missed a shot. However, Thompson, who was nudged by Green as he rushed for an offensive board, ended up taking out Butler's legs. Both players stayed down for a moment before Butler left the game for good.

When asked about Amen Thompson, Dillon Brooks turned the spotlight on Draymond Green, calling him a “dirty player.”
