I usually aim at the scorer’s table,” Curry said after the game. “I was off-aim.”</p><br/><p>“I definitely didn’t mean to throw it at a fan, but it happened,” he said. “I went over and apologized to him because that’s obviously not where I was trying to take my frustration out. But the last two fouls I had I thought were — I didn’t think I fouled either Kyrie [Irving] or LeBron. That’s just kind of my perception of the plays and I had a reaction to it.”</p><br/><div class="easy-ads"><div class="easy-ads-lite easy-ads-lite-bidvertiser-middle"><br/><br/></div><br/></div><br/><p>Curry wasn’t the only one who was frustrated by fouling out.
