Technicals in the NBA

[I. Cold]

I was gonna make a thread about this a couple days ago.

So at first, I thought this was a great idea.. But I had no idea they would take it THIS far. I mean Jesus H. Christ, last game, Marion raised an eyebrow at a ref (after the the ref totally botched a call) and he T'd him up. A RAISED EYEBROW?! You cant even THINK ill of the goddamn refs without them giving you a T. Shit's ridiculous.
Thing is, the quality of officiating hasnt improved one bit from what Ive seen.. and now they're handing out T's like Snickers on Halloween.
I think if they're gonna give the refs this unrealisitic power to T up a player, they should raise the standards as to how the game is officiated. AT LEAST BE CONSISTENT, SHIT!
I dont got a problem with the refs that have been doin it for a while like Joey Crawford, Dick Bavetta, Gary Zilinksi, Benet Salvadore, etc.. They actually know what they're doing.
But the other guys... Fuckin A

Some of the ejections have been absolutely bullshit...i didnt expect any better officiating this year anyway, its always the same = better players get the calls..but it is hard to officiate i guess...enough for me not to go crazy

Yeah.. its 2006 though. Why rely on dumbfucks?
There should be a panel of "refs" viewing the game through cameras from all different angles in a little room. When a call is to be made, they can make it.. Just not in person with their little whistle. It may be delayed method of officiating, but not by much. Maybe a half second. And it would be 100000 times more accurate.

I told yall it was going to be gay.

I dont understand why only a buzzer-beater shot can be reviewed. A foul, a travel, an out-of-bounds call can be just as instrumental to the game as a buzzer-beater. All should be able to be reviewed IMO.

Or maybe implement a challenge system like in the NFL, so we're not reviewing every play but some of the more important ones.

^^^^ naw that would be gay....reviewing takes all the fun out of fuckin sports anyways....but these refs are fuckin dickheads....they are on a super power trip thats for sure.

Reviewing takes all the fun out of sports because it makes sure the calls are actually right for once? We should just take out rules all together.
