Technical Foul or Ejection...what would you do?

bainsey

Easiest call of the day. Flagrant T.

Rich

It's a flagrant technical is a COACH says it, so it's certainly one if a player says it. Life's too short to put up with that crap.

So, what happened?

The play in question the official just gave the player a technical.

That's unfortunate. Maybe he didn't want to write a report.

While I'm sure the thing that we could never get away with saying something like that, the NBA is very different. The thing that impresses me is how calm and collected Garretson is. He's firm, unemotional, and completely clear in everything he says and does in this situation. Totally in control.

I'll hit him w/ a T, but I'm not tossin' him for that....

Adam

Well, that makes two. Jeffpea and the official on the court.

For calling you a piece of sh!t?

I'm not one who finds a huge problem with the word sh!t (see the other thread), but when someone calls me a name like that, they're not sticking around.

Seriously???

So what, exactly, does a player have to say in order for you to toss him/her?:confused:

"You're a fu@k1ng piece of sh1t." That might do it.

You are right...you are not tossing him...he is tossing himself.

"I know you are but what am I' had great success for me early on.😃
Now I would just say "Thank you for playing we have lovely departing gifts for you!"

Exactly.

For one of the best examples of this, see this video: YouTube - Dante Wesley's hit on Clifton Smith LAID OUT!!!!

I'll second that. After reading Tim Donaghy's book and Bob Delaney's (there was only a little bit about officiating in the NBA in that one), I'd love to be able to see a special on HBO or something, uncensored of course

Ring him up for the T-If it is #2 and you have to write the report so be it.

I guess I'd have to say that if the player threatens another player, official, or myself, THEN I would toss 'em with a flagrant tech.....

would you have acted differently if the player had said "that call was a f_*cking piece of $h!t"?
