    Nick Van Exel has been fined $20,000 for verbally abusing game officials after Dallas beat the Wizards yesterday, 106-101.

    Nick the quick trash talking to a ref after a win? I wonder why? :?

    who wouldnt mind seeing a lil more abuse to the refs realistically. i mean its not nice but the fans love it they go crazy. youd love to see a player huck the ball into the refs face breaking his nose or just take him and slam him into the post by the face. hehe..imagine, one day Rasheed Wallace is sent to jail for kneeling on a refs chest and slowly gouging his eyes out with his thumbs while screamikng and crying.

    We don't want the NBA to turn into the WWE. I think the refs should have a point system put on them for missed calls and for being biased towards teams, coaches or players. The refs should receive fines and suspensions as well once they reach 6 missed calls.

    The refs have too much control over the game, yet they don't have any risk for making bad calls. Most of us in here have played organized b-ball and you know there are certain refs who are out to get certain players.

    However, players should not be allowed to touch the refs. Imagine if you put your hands on one your supervisors at work. You'd be fired, you might even be tossed in jail for the night. I think any player who lays his hands on a ref should forfeit half their salary for the year.

    Yeah the refs are always horrible when the rockets are playing.



    Come on every fan says the refs were horrible if their team had a bad game or lost.
