If you look a little closer, you'll see Mavericks center Salah Mejri get in Mills' way. It appears that Mejri is tripping or maybe even lightly kicking Mills. Another Dallas player can be seen reaching toward Mejri as if to get him to keep on walking.Salah Mejri tried to kick Patty Mills while walking off the court pic.twitter.com/SFu25wTP6c

Popovich and Duncan later laughed about it, since the whole thing was somewhat random. Perhaps it was because the Mavericks were down by 21. Or maybe because he was the backup for Zaza Pachulia, who San Antonio knows well enough that he plays dirty as well.Pop and Tim laughing about Meijri @poundingtherock pic.twitter.com/K7cfqGGET9
