When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.

They've assigned the wrong common fouls to people in the game before. Or, the refs have insisted that someone has had six fouls when they didn't.

Draymond should be suspended for that swing he took. Partially because Warriors fans' reactions would be priceless.

Ain't No Thang.
Refs are saying they gave first tech to Kerr and scoring table assumed Draymond. But didn't hear the announcement?

Flankensttein: A name given to a FPS gamer who constantly flanks to get kills.

"So I was playing COD yesterday, and some flankenstein came up from behind and shot me."
I was at the game and what I don't understand is even the PA announcer said the first tech was on Green. So I'm surprised the refs didn't change it right then because every in the arena assumed it was in Green. I don't understand how Kerr would have got a tech he never even left the coaches box. He ran right up to the line and then they gave him a tech. That doesn't make sense to me.

I would rather get pressed by a juicero than live in Cleveland. If you want to make fun of him, make fun of where he's really from, Saginaw

The better Manning.
Man the reffing was horrible in that game, but as a neutral I enjoyed it. It made everything way sloppier. During the Zaza dick punch like 3 people should have been ejected, it was great.

My theory on the phantom tech:
The ref who gave Draymond the 2nd tech forgot about the first one. He was tired of Draymond talking to him so he T'd him up for a really weak reaction, then when somebody pointed out it meant that Green had to be ejected he went "gently caress I can't toss him in the finals for that" and they changed the first one to Kerr.

it wasnt a weak tech, you aren't allowed to starting flinging your hands in the air and scream at refs. the motion he did is even expressively forbidden lol. if its a weak tech to break the rules in both spirit and letter then theres no such thing as a good tech

It's ridiculous he doesn't get T'd up and ejected more often. Rasheed Wallace used to get them for looking at people wrong.

I've read a bunch of their explanations at this point and they're all really bad, and that one kinda conflicts with Doris Burke's sideline reporting during the game. It was a huge fuckup no matter what happened.

i really wish people would gently caress off with this obnoxious smug poo poo already. Yeah my city is much fuller of the smarters because we voted for the openly corrupt political family who'd helped oversee several decades of slow crushing economic decline, an ever-shrinking middle class, the rise of the prison industrial complex, offered nothing new except a continuation of destructive globalist neoliberal policies, literally mocked the electorate, etc etc etc etc. The candidates weren't the people's fault, our awful broken voting system pre-screens candidates by wealth, but now everyone in this country thinks it's okay to hate everyone else for a decision almost nobody was happy with.

Might as well say that every state that went Blue is pro-slavery globalists because Hillary owned a few state slaves back in her Arkansas days and by golly some of them had street smarts. Ohio's gone blue plenty of times, but good luck appealing ever again to people you're openly disdainful of in every casual comment.

Draymond's just doing some fun WWE poo poo, he was nodding his head yesterday when thousands of people surrounded him chanting "DRAYMOND SUCKS" (for playing basketball against them. What's that gotta feel like?). He's allowed some heel action, everyone else is probably being a dick and finding some weak ex post facto justification for it

Hah it's the explanation that seems to best fit the circumstances. The other ones require dozens of people mishearing and misunderstanding in the exact same way, and the refs somehow not bothering to make any corrections when the T was announced over the loudspeaker or during the halftime break.
