    Refs taking this game over.

    Can't stand a weak milquetoast HC in ANY sport

    Other than maybe Zeller, there's nothing to write home about on the floor right now defensively. And it shows.

    So for the Aussie posters here, is junior in high school not a big deal?

  5. #55
    The fact that there's legitimately no recourse for bad reffing is a serious problem in the NBA.

    If players suck, they can get benched. If they really suck, they leave the rotation. If they're complete trash, nobody signs them. They just transition from NBA players to none-players naturally.

    If refs suck, doesn't matter. Once they have the job, they're in basically forever. Doesn't matter how bad they are, they can ref 15 seasons as complete incompetents and they never have to pay fines, or face media, or explain themselves. The closest we get is the L2M report, which neither changes bad calls nor addresses specific instances of failure throughout the game, nor attributes anything actionable to refs.
    Basketball.

    No I meant the Josh Giddy thing. That’s the excuse I’ve been hearing. (Just saw a Thunder commercial on Bally)

    Yeah even if Netflix does an expose on them

    Maybe the refs think we’re doing us a favor since it doesn’t seem we actually want to make free throws

    Age of consent in Aus (as in the UK) is 16. No idea how old US high school juniors are though.

    whats the excuse? we dont have "junior" in high school. I dont however think he would be that stupid to jump on social media with a girl he knew as underage.

    I'm not sure if you know this, but the media posts tons of clips of the team practices all the time, and they do practice a lot of FT shooting. Like, a lot. Every practice there's video of guys taking them, often with information telling us that they're staying late after practice to do it.
