The Official NBA Season Thread: Season Starts Now

Lebron/Lakers fans trying to get another ref out the paint

The other day my sister asked me how someone becomes an NBA ref. Now I know the answer is to have your mommy get you into places until someone's stupid enough to trust you with power.

Lebron/Lakers fans trying to get another ref out the paint

I mean we all don't like tony brothers, but this tweet is a tad uncharitable no?

"he’s obsessed with power and control." because he wanted to be judge and networked his way into a cushy high paying job?

Both nba and nfl threads going off about reffing

Sports in shambles!!!

So let me get this right. He wanted to be a judge

-Doesn't apply to a school he could get into
-Rejected from the two he did apply to
-Mom uses connections for him to get into university a week before the semester starts. Which is a major hook-up
-Doesn't apply to law school (no mention of it)
-Mom calls a friend to get him a job after college
-Coworker explains to him how to referee
-Doesn't even care for basketball
-Mainly enjoys the power



It is like if Judge Joe Brown and Thanasis Antetokounmpo did the DBZ fusion dance

Thought it might be an appropriate time to revisit this debatable call

This just proves a theory that I’ve had since I was 12 years old..

All refs are wannabe narcs.

Cops = Refs. They’re the same people.

I think that's the goal

C's and Spurs basically have the inverse of each others record. Wonder who they'll draft this summer

Damn salute Tony Brothers for failing up and getting nepotism links as an old black man. Cats weren't even supposed to get that in his era.

Brothers not being a fan is a good thing in my opinion. That way he's unbiased and won't get lost in the game or play favorites like that Celtics fan ref.

You think that'd stop him from having biases? Lol

He went to Booker T in Norfolk, I know stickman crooked (pause).

Obviously a human being will have some level of bias based on players he likes personally, but I'm talking about team allegiance/rivalry bias. That is much deeper than surface level personality bias.
