The Sacramento Kings took a 2-0 series lead over the Golden State Warriors during the first round of the postseason in the Western Conference.
It was the first time that Stephen Curry and Steve Kerr (as head coach) have ever lost the first two games of a playoff series. To make matters worse, star defender Draymond Green was ejected from the game for stomping on Kings big Domantas Sabonis.
Green reportedly requested an X-ray after claiming Sabonis injured him on the possession. He could also potentially face a suspension for his role in the altercation.
There is little doubt this was a tough game to watch for Warriors executive Bob Myers. But as if all of that wasn’t bad enough for Myers, the president of basketball operations for the franchise, he also had a less-than-ideal seating arrangement at the Golden 1 Center in Sacramento:

Myers was seated directly next to a Sacramento fan who was seen loudly ringing a cowbell within inches of his ear.
The fans in Sacramento have a long history of ringing cowbells, but this looked excruciating for the two-time NBA Executive of the Year.
