New York Knicks head coach Mike Brown criticizes officiating after the Knicks lose Game 3 of the NBA Finals to the San Antonio Spurs. Following the 115-111 loss at Madison Square Garden, Brown points to what he describes as a major free-throw disparity in the second half, saying the Spurs take 24 free throws while the Knicks take eight. Multiple outlets report Brown’s comments include frustration over the timing and consistency of foul calls, with one account noting New York’s foul calls increase late in the game, including reaching the bonus after a short span in the fourth quarter. Brown’s remarks come as the Spurs cut the Knicks’ series lead to 2-1. The loss also ends New York’s 13-game postseason winning streak and its first defeat in 46 days, according to reports. While Brown challenges the officiating, the sources agree on the key game details: the final score, the series standing after Game 3, and the reported free-throw gap that drives Brown’s criticism.
