Gregg Popovich After Getting Ejected 63 Seconds Into Game: 'Ask The Officials' 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Thu Apr 4, 2019 5:40 am

Gregg Popovich was ejected 63 seconds into the San Antonio Spurs' 113-85 loss to the Denver Nuggets.


Popovich received two technical fouls after arguing a non-call on LaMarcus Aldridge.


It was the fastest ejection of this season.


"You'll have to ask the officials," said Popovich following the game.

For a man who loves his moral high horse it’s a poor look for kids. Respect the officials.

Officials should also be required to answer to the media post-game.
Make it happen already.

Adam Silver ruined basketball with these technicals sooo gay. I miss the emotion. When Garnett would get in a guy’s face and just be screaming and spraying all over him. That was the **** I lived for, **** you silver.

I feel like screaming and spraying all over another man would be more gay

But allow Curry to laugh, point, and mock the refs. No tech there.

Yes. So glad my wolves won that game. But the red criteria and consistency is tottaly broken

I think the league office should give refs points publicly to be transparent about what they are trying to accomplish.

I'm very confused on what one thing has to do with the other? Just because he argued with the refs and fought for his player he now lacks morals? Is that the point you're attempting to make here?

I challenge you to show me an NBA coach who has never received a technical foul, apparently they all lack morals and are a terrible example for kids in your world.

Didn’t see it

But. Knowing pop. This is a mind game!

End of year vs a team he could face in the playoffs?
Don’t show anything!

In fact! Tank the game. Lose on purpose!
Get blown out! Let the enemy think they have your number! Play into the other teams strengths. Learn what they are doing. Let them use their best ideas now when it doesn’t matter and then find them, develop counters and deploy!!!!

Pop went to the locker room 1 min in as a tactical move!

I have seen His tricks for over 2 decades!

If Denver and the spurs meet in the playoffs, I predict the spurs win game one
USA Celtics in full effect. Amazing chemistry building experience right there for the main core of the team


Proceeds to finish 7th and shames the entire nation!

To get respect you have to give respect and these ref’s have been disrespecting the game all year long, every season they get worse and worse. They should send them all to the d league
