Taking the suspension isn't a great move though because your still get suspended every 2 techs, right?

In any case I don't understand why they have that rule if they're just going to play these stupid games with it.

You are moving the clock back to 2 techs which is not a horrible idea but I also wonder if luka gets more than one tech in the last 7 games.

It’s tough, because the only way to completely remove the incentive for strategically taking techs is to make *every* tech past the 15th trigger a suspension, and that seems insanely harsh.

I don't see why you couldn't add in half or quarter long game suspensions

I think you give them a restriction like in League of Legends where Luka gets a chat restriction. Isn’t able to talk to refs at all for five games.

I support the greater allowance for players to go off on refs ala VanVleet considering all the bogus ejections this year. You're not the main character you striped fucks!!!

now that rasheed is out of the league the rule is antiquated and serves no obvious purpose

the tech foul rule is stupid because it’s largely discretionary, and unlike suspending players for flagrant 2s doesn’t really keep anyone safe

nba refs don't even wear stripes smh

The wolves won so I wasn't complaining about it but the refs were ridiculous last night wrt one Draymond Green once again and it's basically the reason I hate watching the Warriors. I think the Wolves got called for two flagrants and almost a third but when Dray clearly smacked Rudy across the face they wouldn't even review it.

It was confusing when Rudy got inadvertently elbowed in the head there was no review. I thought they all got reviewed.

Yes but, KAT and Jaden also have well earned reputations as foulers (particularly KAT offensively) so they're also being watched closer and given less benefit of the doubt, like when KAT picked up his second as an illegal screen for a warrior stepping on his stationary foot.

This has been, dating back to the Boston/Chicago fiascos, a particularly rough run of reffing. The only two consistent yearlong/YOY issues I recall are that nobody gets the superstar whistle and that it's open season on the bigs and skinny wings for postups and rebounds (dating back to Vando routinely being "helped" into the baseline crowd). Which feeds the persecution complex of KAT and Jaden.

Hopefully Jaden gets the all defense recognition and a more trusting whistle on D while KAT does better with more limited physicality as he spends more time outside on both ends. And refs decide that they'd rather reward Ant's version of hunting contact than Trae's (not holding my breath on that one)

I wouldn't go that far. He's missed like half the season, for one. And struggles when coming back from injury for a few games. Has been playing well lately. Still having lapses on defense but he is at least giving effort to rebound.
