Some have questioned whether Houston's Amen Thompson is a dirty player after Golden State's Jimmy Butler was injured in a scary fall in Game 2 when the Rockets guard took his opponent's legs out from under him on a hard foul.

Fans expected physicality and testiness in the NBA playoffs showdown between the No. 2-seeded Houston Rockets and No. 7 Golden State Warriors, but tension could be nearing a boiling point following Jimmy Butler’s pelvic injury.

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.
