Chris Finch on officiating: “The league’s in a place right now where you draw the contact, spill away, and get rewarded. Guys who try to play through contact … stay with the drive, they tend not to be rewarded … Maybe we ought to start flopping too.”
“Julius is not a flopper,” Finch said. “Ant is not a flopper. They are physical drivers. They play through the first line of contact. A lot of times that point of contact, if you were to spill away, you get a foul. But if you keep going, [referees] take a play-on mentality.”

Finch acknowledged that “some of them were fouls” but said, on rewatch, “they weren’t all fouls.”
“The league is in a place right now where you draw contact, spill away, you get rewarded,” Finch said. “Guys who try to play through contact, that first level of contact and stay with the drive, they tend not to be rewarded. Fouls are rewarded up the floor and not in and around the paint.”
