昨日灰狼隊中鋒Karl-Anthony Towns在上半場就轟下44分，改寫NBA歷史上半場的得分紀錄，但到了下半場球隊刻意給Towns攻擊，加上Towns自己也有不合理的進攻選擇，最後被逆轉無緣留下勝利。
賽後總教練Finch也認為球隊最後有很多糟糕的選擇，甚至批評了球隊沒有尊重比賽，不過裁判的吹判也是另外一個焦點，Towns在最後一擊時明顯被對手犯規，而裁判並沒有吹判。
根據最後的裁判報告，經過檢視之後灰狼有7次的誤判對他們不利，而黃蜂則是有3次的誤判。

特別是Towns最後的一波攻擊，Towns遭到連續的兩次犯規都沒有吹，在切入時遭到Terry Rozier打手，最後出手時又遭到Leaky Black打手，都是有機會靠著吹判犯規站上罰球線取分。
