The NBA has been transformed into a leftist political action committee by Adam Silver & LeBron James (Both Democrats) campaigning for Joe Biden and other Democrats. In addition to the NBA, the following fund raised for the Democrat party, BLM and other Black organizations. Hit the Democrat party where it counts! Boycott–Verizon, US Bank, TNT, Best Buy, Wayfair, Kohls, Cigna, and Teachers Unions. The NBA/WNBA allows its players to disrespect the National Anthem & Flag.
Pass it along……

I totally disagree. The NBA players have learned to flail about like soccer players to get bogus calls. After nearly every play they complain of a no call.. Some games are just free throw contests.. The NBA refs are terrible and are too quick to blow the whistle, but not on techs.

Adam selver needs to be held accountable for this atrocious officiating, this has been going on for far too long now to the point where it’s ruining the game and causing teams to lose and that is simply unacceptable, if you have no problem fining players thousands of dollars, then i don’t see why the refs aren’t getting the same treatment.
REFS ARE RUINING BASKETBALL!

If i was ref i wouldnt care at all. Players complain non stop even when they obviously committed a foul. Theres no such thing as having a good game as a ref. Its always their fault. Thats the lack of accountability culture we live in now.

Refs should get some warning system which can lead to an expulsion from the league after a certain number. If a ref is known to be biased against a team/player or “soft” and can’t handle men competing for every point at the highest level saying some mean words or just having fun in some cases, then they shouldn’t be refs.
