Amen was hanging on the rim less than two seconds and it was mainly to swing back so he could have a safe landing.

[–] hazeleyedwolff@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

That ref has never dunked.

[–] BearsFan3417@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

He got dunked on during mini hoop games, too

[–] halfsober@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Refs tryna cover that spread 😂

[–] Chaps_and_salsa@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

He’s so effortlessly athletic

[–] nikop@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I haven't seen one of these called in a while. ridiculous rule in the first place and especially when it's not called 99% of the time

[–] wavetoyou@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

What a gutsy call by the official! We cookin tonight, go refs!

[–] LilSwampGod@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Wack call. He let go when his momentum slowed.

[–] Gaetan123456@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

What an absolute joke

[–] teddyjj399@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Get this thug out of the league there’s children watching these games

[–] LogDogan4@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Probably the pull up, not hanging too long.

[–] TheHalfbadger@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Yeah, it’s always the pull-up. Nothing to get up in arms about here, that’s a textbook call.

[–] miiblord@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Did the refs have a meeting about this? There were 3 of these called during the Pacers/Cavs game.

[–] noochies99@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Must be a point of emphasis, I remember a few game delays for uneven time last year but this was ridiculous

[–] MagicalHurdles@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

There were a few of these techs at the Pacers/Cavs game. What is wrong with NBA ref priorities

[–] bkn88kb@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

🤨 that’s a trash ass call.. he barely was on it smh

[–] sreynolds1@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

That’s literally nothing

[–] calmdownmyguy@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago
[–] PainSubstantial710@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

let em play

[–] yellowwithstripes@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Why is it a rule in the first place? Real question

[–] TheHalfbadger@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

It’s not about hanging, it’s about the pull-up. And I believe it was basically to get Shaq to stop breaking baskets.

[–] plasterboi99@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Why does the NBA try to make the game more boring 😴

[–] skrimpskampi@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Wack as fuck. Fix the league. I can’t even say what I wanna say without being banned. Let them dunk and let them have fun and express themselves. As long as it’s not the ufc the refs should shut the fuck up.

Hell, I heard iggy talking about seeing a refs picture in the arena that tells you about them and their favorite food! Nobody gives a shit about them!

[–] messibusiness@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Oh so it’s a technical to be good at basketball now, good to know.

Beautiful move. I think this guy will be the second best player from this draft and an absolute superstar, behind the alien

[–] bjtrdff@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

That’s lame even in the regular season.

[–] Atl-Fan_FTS@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I see worse than this every single time I watch a game, that’s a lame call

[–] the-pak-man@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Wow that’s some bullshit. Does this mean he has to pay a fine as well?

[–] Purganis@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Do the refs have anything against him?

He didnt do anything wrong...

[–] MechaShoujo02@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

There should be a channel or twitter account compiling all the worst ref calls over the course of a season and it be sent directly to Adam Silver.

[–] BenShelZonah@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I’ve seen lebron hang for an hour and almost hit people with his legs swinging with aggression. It was hype tho

[–] maremmacharly@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

This is clearly correct though. Not like he just used to stop his momentum, man started doing chinups on the rim.

[–] Big_East_Cat@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I don’t think hanging was the issue…isn’t the rule you’re not allowed to pull up?

[–] pm_me_cheesy_bread@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago
[–] usedtosmokepot@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Clearly a tech. If you’re worried about landing on people and snapping your bones and ligaments, make them stronger. Don’t be lazy. /s
