I want to know how Amare can receive two technicals in the span of 2 seconds for arguing a call. I have not seen one individual all year receive two immediate technicals for arguing.

That is borderline Joey Crawford/Tim Duncan **** and should be nipped in the bud.

Was it two technicals on one play? Absurd! I've seen Kobe cuss out refs and yet not get hit with a technical.
He still needs to watch it because even if the refs are biased complaining isn't going to help him any, he just needs to stay on the court and let his play do the talking.

i wasnt sure about the tech's too i missed the first qt cuz i was picking my bro in law from work, but i saw the 2nd tech and unlike the usual amare fist swinging he simply rested his hands on his head and got T'd.. it was questionable.

agree with all of you shaq is looking scary good, i love it. KEEP IT UP SHAQTUS

also i just wanted to add i know this season hasnt been our best by the least but all the new threads i open up are all pessimistic, just think usually in the past when nash didnt play it didnt matter if we were playing a highschool freshmen team we would LOSE, we handled a pesky Grizz team and got a good win, im just glad we are finally figuring it out and can be on a decent win streak if i dont jynx anything!

Check out Coro's blog, seems as though he agrees w/ the ejection.

Link please? I was very disappointed because he's on my fantasy team, and it hindered my production. Went from 1st to 3rd :( and I wasn't watching the game so I didn't know what happened. (I watched the 4th Q only).

I saw that part of the game. I agree with Amare playing aggressive on D like that, much better than when he's not giving the effort. But, as others have said he needs to be smarter and not get T'd up like that. I wonder if Amare will ever get it sometimes..

Wow, how can you say Amare is immature after reading that? Yeah, he may be immature, but seriously, 2 quick T's by the referee is dumb. It's like that 6 on 5 in Portland, where Portland got T'd, but the basket the 6th man scored still counted. How dumb...
