    I know I just broke the number 1 code of being a Blazer fan, but people need to get things in perspective here. We are a young team and this was bad, but this team can grow on this.

    You guys say "complained about a no call" like it was something simple. It couldn't have been just a simple complaint for him to get tossed. He had to have cursed at the referee.

    Well we don't know exact details of what he said were just watching on tv lol. He complained about a missed no call and probably used some swear words or some shit.

    Well, when you turn over the ball before you take the shot, it doesn't go against your percentage... so, there's that.

    Reggie Jackson is the reason I beat @KingAlbertoJrSpeed in fantasy basketball.. So that's a plus, I guess.

    I'm sorry - what planet are you from? NBA refs call techs for smiles, shrugs, sideways looks, or just 'cuz they can. Between the corrupt and the crazy NBA officiating is a burbling cesspool.

    That said, the Davis ejection was barely a footnote in this epic collapse.

    Not exaggerating, I just set the all time land speed record home. I packed my stuff and beat feet the fuck out of there. So happy right now I'm home and not stuck in traffic.

    What planet am I from? I'm from fucking planet referee. There's no reason to talk shit. You don't throw a player out of the game for no reason.

    I thought you were trying to get an edge on the Pistons team bus to egg it.

    Last year during the BLM protests at the Moda I was able to go past the police lines and take pictures, I would just point at my press pass and the sea of blue would part. That was fun!

    Are you an NBA ref? Different species.

    At most levels, refs get paid squat and do it for the love of the game. I respect that. NBA refs are one step above pro wrasslin'.

    You sir, kindly, don't know what the hell you're talking about. I get paid $62 an hour to do what I do. Division 1 College refs get paid at least $1,100 a game on the low end. $2,200 a game on the high end. When I referee a division 3 game, I get $300 for that hour and a half worth of work. Even when I referee middle school games on the weekend it's $25 an hour. Jussayin'. Now, I referee over 300 basketball games a year. Do the math.
