Watching the Celtics vs Magic game. And they really called that a technical on Tatum. Because he swung on the rim for .5 seconds? I understand they say “You can’t do that it’s against the rules.” But this is way out of hand. They called one on Sexton last week or so. They ejected Giannis for looking at someone. Can the NBA do something?! This is getting beyond annoying.

This should be such an obvious call - yeah if you're doing pull ups or swinging one handed for the audience then sure, call a tech.

Tatum literally swing forwards with his knees tucked to avoid hitting another player, then waited for his momentum to swing him backwards so he could release without breaking his back, and they called a tech. Such an awful call.
