Below is another link with a quote from Floyd saying ,""I'd never seen him (the official who issued all the technicals) before and I don't know who he is. I've always earned my technicals and I didn't feel like I earned it."

Really, Tim? This guy is a clown. Nice to see his assistant get run too. 5 technical fouls in a 7 pt game because the coaches can't behave like adults. I hope, but seriously doubt, they apologized to their players after the game.

He jacked the head coach and the top assistant...that was great. They gave him way too much rope IMO...he could have been jacked long before that.

The look on Floyd's face when the officer grabbed him was priceless.

The official was Jeb Hartness.

And unlike Tim Floyd, Hartness has seen a major conference floor this season.

Oh, if you want to read some of the most laugh-out-loud quality drivel, look here:

Is Tony Greene On The Take?

Wow...that's bad.

IMO the two things that people seem to know the least about but feel they can comment on extensively are basketball officiating and public policy/politics.

Happens to be the two areas that represent my advocation and my occupation.

I am surprised the Tim Floyd has a job. Someone after the Bulls and the USC debacles decided to actually hire him?

Peace

Officials at that level want them to hang themselves. It was handled perfectly in my opinion as no one is going to dispute if he should have been ejected. If done before Floyd could complain he was targeted. Now he cannot say hardly anything as he never stopped focusing on the official.

I don't blame him for what happened to the Bulls; other than the fact that he was an idiot for taking that job.

You should have read Rich's link. Our esteemed blogger maintains Floyd did nothing wrong and was unfairly targeted by a young official who was trying to prove himself/compensate for not being as well known as Floyd.

I do not need to read links to know that coaches will make any excuse to justify their behavior. Obviously Floyd would not let whatever happened go. And it appeared that the official hardly said a word to him at all during the last sequence. So who cares what the blogger thinks. I might as well start a blog and talk about something I have never done too and sound like an expert.

Peace

Floyd given a stern talking-to by CUSA, but not much else.

Here's the laughable quote:

"I was given a warning for having my foot out of the coaching box," he said. "I haven't got a technical all year long, so I went back to the bench. Next thing I know, I have a technical and I didn't know why I got it.

"I was not upset with the officials at that point," he said. "I was coaching my team after the first one."

This guy lives in La-La land.
