Hi Adam. Please cut this shit out.

[–] Longjumping_Set_754@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

These techs are really out of pocket lol

[–] Neal-Enblowme@alien.top 1 points 2 years 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 2 years 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 2 years ago

Ref show this year has been incredible

[–] BocchiLover@alien.top 1 points 2 years 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 2 years ago

Not even clapping. Just one clap. Hilarious. XD

[–] Electric_Aeria@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

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

[–] Nutholsters@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Adam Silver needs to go man

[–] prosocialbehavior@alien.top 1 points 2 years 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 2 years 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 2 years ago

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

[–] flappypancaker@alien.top 1 points 2 years 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 2 years 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 2 years 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 2 years ago

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

[–] ImSleepBro@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

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

[–] T4lsin@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Refs need to reel it in a little.

[–] JonasAlbert84@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Refs are on some bullshit this year

[–] lucash7@alien.top 1 points 2 years 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 2 years 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 2 years 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 2 years ago

NBA refs are trash

[–] frghu2@alien.top 1 points 2 years 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 2 years 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.

[–] Strong_Bumblebee5495@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

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

[–] knoef13@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

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

[–] ArtfulLying@alien.top 1 points 2 years 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 2 years ago

THIS IS INSANE

[–] pooooolooop@alien.top 1 points 2 years 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 2 years ago

No clapping, no smiling!

[–] Nweber15@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

How dare he show emotion

[–] Alive_Ad1256@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

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

[–] moredrinksplease@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Refs are eating well this season

[–] beibinis@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

This nonsense makes me legit furious.

[–] SharpMind94@alien.top 1 points 2 years 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 2 years 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 2 years ago

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

[–] StageAcceptable7182@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Who's that snitch Nix player pointing at JT😂

[–] Tobaltus@alien.top 1 points 2 years 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 2 years ago

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

[–] AmericaDeservedItDud@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

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 2 years ago

Refs in basketball are becoming as bitchy as baseball umps

[–] chalbersma@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

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