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 1 year ago (1 children)

That ref has never dunked.

[–] BearsFan3417@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

He got dunked on during mini hoop games, too

[–] halfsober@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Refs tryna cover that spread 😂

[–] Chaps_and_salsa@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

He’s so effortlessly athletic

[–] nikop@alien.top 1 points 1 year 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 1 year ago

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

[–] LilSwampGod@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Wack call. He let go when his momentum slowed.

[–] Gaetan123456@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

What an absolute joke

[–] teddyjj399@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

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

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

Probably the pull up, not hanging too long.

[–] TheHalfbadger@alien.top 1 points 1 year 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 1 year 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 1 year 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 1 year 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 1 year ago

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

[–] sreynolds1@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

That’s literally nothing

[–] PainSubstantial710@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

let em play

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

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

[–] TheHalfbadger@alien.top 1 points 1 year 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 1 year ago

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

[–] skrimpskampi@alien.top 1 points 1 year 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 1 year 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 1 year ago

That’s lame even in the regular season.

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

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

[–] Purganis@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Do the refs have anything against him?

He didnt do anything wrong...

[–] MechaShoujo02@alien.top 1 points 1 year 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 1 year 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 1 year 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 1 year 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 1 year ago
[–] usedtosmokepot@alien.top 1 points 1 year 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
