He does complain way too often and for way too long, so that must play a part. Agreed on him being the nicest superstar, though.


The problem with this statement is Embiid and Doncic complain farvworse and Get the whistle much more as well


Draymond Green screams at refs faces, throws tamper tantrums and always get away with whetever he does unless its a physical assault mid-game. It's absolutely crazy how the league threats the refereeing for some players.

mission accomplished. quickly moved on

The question is what game to watch next, Dolphins vs. Chiefs or Lottery Warriors vs. Bucks? :lol:

I was so high on him, thought he'd be perfect for what we needed.

I just saw the play that made Tatum frustrated and subsequently ejected. That's ridiculous. Absolutely ridiculous how refs get no punishment for those kind of calls.

If players or coach or anyone involved with an organization complains about it, they're fined. Sometimes refs seems like dictators on the court. They can't listen to anything, because they're sensitive, they can't be punished, they aren't held accountable...

I've tried some reffing in my life and it is not always easy. Some angles you just don't see.. But there are 3 NBA referees. How can not one see how clearly he was it on the arm.. And then they absolutely compounded by ejecting him..
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

He still could be. Hard to shine, when you only play in garbage time once every 7 games.
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)
