The Golden State Warriors must secretly have it out for NBA official Ken Mauer.
During Game 1 of the NBA Finals on Thursday, Brazilian Blur LeAndro Barbosa tripped Mauer while stepping back for a 3-pointer in the corner, sending him crashing to the hardwood at Oracle Arena.
Back in Game 5 of the Western Conference semifinals, Draymond Green smacked Mauer in the hand while complaining about a call.
Can it get any worse?
