Worst Technical Ever
« on: March 08, 2011, 09:11:54 PM »
The refs should basically just tell Otule he should land flat on his back instead of hold on to the rim, especially since he has no history of injury.  Bad call.

Come on, absolutely deserved, he hung on the rim and pulled himself up to the backboard. The refs are supposed to know his history now?

Agreed.  He pulled himself up and looking at it live I thought a T was coming.  Looking at it on the replay, I thought the T was deserved.

Yeah that was deserved.  My understanding is that the only reason you can hang on the rim is if another player is beneath.  That wasn't the case.

If this is our trade-off to having a productive big man -- I say bring it on.

I think it was clear that he didn't have control of his body. He hung on the rim because the other option was landing on his ass. Undeserved T.

Worst post ever. I've never seen a more deserved technical, nor one that I shrugged off more easily.

Anyone that saw Bogut's injury last year looks at that and says it shouldn't be a T and even though it's called, I'm ok with it

Otule just needed to scream like a bitch, ala Stanley Robinson and he wouldn't have gotten a T.

He had to do that to control his body.  I immediately thought of the Bogut situation last year.  Unless he's CLEARLY showboating I don't think it's that big a deal.  Players do a lot dumber things that should warrant T's but they don't get called.  I know why they called it, but don't like it.

also thought it was a momentum/ bringing your feet back under you deal...

But who really gives a f.ck.  Chris didn't play one of his better games but gave his all and had a couple solid dunks (at least we know we ain't gonna miss a chippy when CO gets the ball)

+1 to your interpretation of the play...Chris had momentum...look where he took off from for the dunk...his body carried him forward. Bad call.

But in the scheme of things...who cares. Great play

No, this is the worst post ever because the worst technical ever was handed out in D.C. earlier this year.

I also thought this was a body control thing, but I didn't care because Chris was jacked, it demoralized the Friars and this game was already out of hand.

No complaining about an MU 5 completely destroying the rim.

The worst technical ever was DJO doing the 3 goggles at GTown and getting T'd up for it.

How many times does a guy put up the 3 symbol after making one?

Unless DJO said a curse word or something, that was a brutal technical.

He did say a curse word - in celebration, to no one in particular - and that's why he got T'd.  Which makes it the worst technical ever.  Council did the exact same thing before the half tonight, they even showed it on slow-motion replay several times.  F-bombs clear as day.  No technical was called (rightfully so) because that happens 40 times per game and it has never resulted in a technical outside of grade school.

Yeah give a T to a guy with one eye who was just trying to protect himself and any others that he may have not been able to see since he only has one eye he can see with. Oh well, I guess it means nothing. We will kick a*s with just one eye if that is what is required.

That was not the worst ever--- what about the one called on DJO a couple weeks back. That should be in the equation for sure.

They were warned ahead of the game not to swear.  DJO did.  He got the technical.  I'm not exactly sure what the problem is here.

Chris took off from so far away he had to lean forward to get it in and that momentum made him swing on the rim.
