The Golden State Warriors turned in a gritty performance Wednesday, beating the Houston Rockets in Game 5 of the Western Conference Semifinals despite losing Kevin Durant to a calf injury late in the third quarter.

The only way Warriors coach Steve Kerr could aptly describe his team’s performance was to use some profanity, so he apologized to his mom in advance before quoting Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp.

“Our guys are f—ing Giants,” Kerr told reporters. “That was an unbelievable victory tonight.”

Kerr’s interview aired live on TNT and NBATV, so somebody might be hearing from the FCC pretty soon.
