Report: Cavs upset Durant wasn't T'd up for cursing at Love

Brian Spurlock-USA TODAY Sports

After Richard Jefferson picked up a technical foul for winking on Christmas Day, the Cleveland Cavaliers were reportedly upset that Kevin Durant and the Golden State Warriors got away with worse.

Durant was apparently particularly crass with his trash talking during the Dubs' loss, calling Kevin Love a "motherf----r" after a dunk, according to the Akron Beacon Journal's Jason Lloyd.

It appears Durant motioned to Love to say something after this first-quarter slam, but Love got instant revenge with a deep inbounds pass to a breaking LeBron James.

Jefferson was called for a technical after winking at Durant following a fourth-quarter dunk. While James thinks the tech will be rescinded by the league, Kyrie Irving apparently said he'll pay Jefferson's fine.
