Hi Adam. Please cut this shit out.

[–] Longjumping_Set_754@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

These techs are really out of pocket lol

[–] Neal-Enblowme@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

NBA is so fucking soft. These techs are lame as fuck. Pretty soon you gonna have to play without making noises and have your hands at your side .. while looking down at the floor..don’t make eye contact with the refs or immediately ejected.

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

I was excited for the NBA. But they need to take their power away as refs. This is straight up bull shit.

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

Ref show this year has been incredible

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

I want the ref to call a tech to a player and just say 'Why are you the way that you are? Honestly, every time I try to do something fun or exciting, you make it not that way. I hate so much about the things that you choose to be.'

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

Not even clapping. Just one clap. Hilarious. XD

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

Hilarious how he clearly says “man FUCK THAT” in response and doesn’t get a 2nd T

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

Adam Silver needs to go man

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

Unpopular opinion but I like the refs calling more techs when some of the all stars are complaining/whining. It has gotten pretty excessive over the years. This one wasn’t bad at all obviously why it was posted to social media. But I overall I like them cleaning up the complaining

[–] sid-darth@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I would like to offer up exhibit #1, Draymond Green. If you're going to crack down, you need to start with the worst offender.

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

I’m just sad for all the children at home who had to witness this

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

Honest question…when the NBAPA negotiates with the league every few years for salaries and such, don’t they talk about officiating standards?

In other words, how come the players don’t have some say/influence over the officiating standards?

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

The ref got reminded of his wife locking the door to their bedroom which is why he called the whistle

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

I don't think that was an overreaction by the refs, someone could have been seriously hurt if their balls were in that exact spot he clapped.

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

Draymond does this as well and with a lot of taunting.

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

Ha, viciously clapping is probably the exact word the referee used to explain this tech

[–] T4lsin@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Refs need to reel it in a little.

[–] JonasAlbert84@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Refs are on some bullshit this year

[–] lucash7@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Officials who don't like clapping. Huh, I didn't know NBA refs moonlighted as SEC refs...

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

Wow...I have no love for the Celtics, but that was petty as petty gets. No clapping? Is that even a rule? It's not like he was clapping in the ref's face, or clapping his ass cheeks together. He clapped...once. Not particularly aggressively either. Refs just wanting everything to be about them, as usual.

[–] taran-tula-tino@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Listen I get the league wants to protect officials and wants to cut back on player whining and complaining to refs, but this shot is getting out of hand, that’s a ridiculous tech

[–] Fred_Sav4ge@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

NBA refs are trash

[–] frghu2@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Thankfully I didn't watch this with my kids. I don't want to explain to my kid why he shouldn't clap his hands.

[–] kweku55@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

This is some corny ass shit. What the fuck? I don't understand how refs can be so thick skinned that they can completely brush off Draymond literally shouting in their faces, but Tatum expresses his frustration with a single fucking clap and he gets a tech.

I hate the Leprechauns but this is such a bs call…

[–] knoef13@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I don't like tatum but that call is weak!

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

And you guys call Draymond crazy. Look at this man. Nearly ruptured an arena's worth of eardrums with that thunderous clap.

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

THIS IS INSANE

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

I mean what happens if you flick off the ref to his face, I’m supporting anyone who does it

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

No clapping, no smiling!

[–] Nweber15@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

How dare he show emotion

[–] Alive_Ad1256@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Get rid of these fucking lake refs, I swear they ruin the damn game.

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

Refs are eating well this season

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

This nonsense makes me legit furious.

[–] SharpMind94@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

But the hewha seal doesn't get a tech for yelling at the refs?

The refs are ruining basketball

[–] arpro232@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

The NBA needs to start reviewing all techs given by the refs. If not a necessary tech then it should be rescinded and the ref should be fined instead. Watch how quick these weak techs stop getting called

[–] StageAcceptable7182@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Who's that Nixs player that pointed out the clap first 😂

[–] StageAcceptable7182@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Who's that snitch Nix player pointing at JT😂

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

What the fuck is up with the refs this year, this has to be some of the worst officiating I've seen like what the fuck

[–] raiderrocker18@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

how could he clap like that knowing there are kids watching this game

Might as well tell a ref to go fuck themselves, you can’t even fucking clap one time without catching a tech what is this?

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

Refs in basketball are becoming as bitchy as baseball umps

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

A clap should never get a technical foul. It's literally something that was invented to limit the amount of annoying screeching.
