    The NBA has a big REF problem. Taking away from the games.
    Saw the video of Westbrook getting tossed last night. Ridiculous.

    These refs are out of control. Rabbit ears. Peacocking looking for air time. FUKK them

    I guarantee there is tons of great refs who never get the chance because most of the guys stay around for ever.
    Must have a great union.

    It would be simple to put together a collage of videos with the refs misbehaving. Have a meeting with the brass.
    Put a fine/suspension system in place. Hit them where it hurts.

    While we are at it, do the same with the home plate umps.

      Been this way for years. If you look at ref stats you can see a nice BIG bias in certain situations.

          You sound like Draymond Green. It's not the refs it's the players. Westbrook had 10 turnovers in the game!! He barrells into the defense hoping to get freebies because he has no clue how to run an offense. The ref doesn't buy it so he feels disrespected and throws a tantrum pfft...

              It's always the same people game in game out complaining after every call is close, not caring that they're wrong 90% of the time but just trying to gain an edge. Doc Rivers, D.Wade, D.Green, C.Paul, J.Harden, DeRozan, Lowry, K.Walker, D.Howard, Cousins, Westbrook... Draw a line in the sand sooner and I guarantee it wont be a problem.

                  I get there is 2 sides to this issue, as plenty of players are entitled d-bags.
                  But as you stated, ref felt "disrespected". Making it about him with 2 quick techs.

                      You mis-understood. Westbrook felt dis-respected because he was laying on the floor and the ref is making the travelling signal. The ref is doing his JOB, he doesn't have to put up with that shit after every odd call. It's gotten ridiculous, all the flopping and flailing and complaining.

                          Yep, ref definatley killed that spread. Patched up the bleeding OKC was putting on. Them refs let their feelings get in the way of doing their jobs.
