The Post got it right, and the NBA got it wrong.
Those were the words of Knicks owner James Dolan during an interview on WFAN on Wednesday hours before the critical Game 4 of the NBA Finals.
Dolan was referring to the NBA’s decision not to retroactively assess a flagrant foul on Victor Wembanyama for tossing Jalen Brunson to the ground in the first quarter of Game 3. There was no foul called on the play either.
“So, I’m a Governor of the NBA, right, I’m restricted and bound by the rules of the NBA, of which there are a lot. There’s little that I can say,” Dolan said. “I will say if you read the cover of The New York Post today, I think they got it right. Hopefully, that won’t get me in trouble.”
The cover included an old school Wanted poster with Wembanyama in the act of shoving Brunson to the floor. The charge was a flagrant foul and reward was an NBA trophy.
