I had never seen a ref ask a player to remove protective equipment and wanted to know if there is a new rule in place or is this just a pet peeve of this particular ref?

can you do me a favor? the next time you see that official, can you please tell him I said: "either read and learn the rules OR simply retire". if that doesn't work for you, I hereby give you permission to make a Citizen's Arrest for "impersonating a basketball official". thanx!
