In the post-game interview, Jaylen Brown called out Robinson as he claimed “I think he knew exactly what he was trying to do. He was trying to get tangled up, etcetera, because he didn’t want to play defense and they called a foul but he was still trying to hang on and I wanted to get my arm free.”
