1. Damian Lillard:

   Tried to get a little bit of space. ... Andre Iguodala grabbed my arm and I lost the ball a bit, there was a lot of contact, but obviously the ref is not going to decide the game or jump in at that point. So... good defensive play.

2. Weston McKennie:

   It plays with your head a little bit when it takes long for the ref to decide whether it's a PK or not.

3. Cristian Roldan:

   We had talked about him fouling me a little bit and talked about me specifically asking the ref to give him a yellow card, it’s all in good fun, but we’re both competitors, so once we get on the field, we’re no longer brothers, we’re rivals.

4. Antoine Roussel 10:41:

   I don't know (if the referee made the right call), they have a tough job. It's not easy to be a ref out there.

5. Jaime Jaquez Jr.:
