Well, I would never make it in the NBA. Not because I'm not good at basketball, but because I would keep getting technicals and get ejected by Joey Crawford by constantly laughing while sitting on the bench (which, hypothetically is probably where i would be most of the time).
But seriously, how old are you Joey?
You've been officiating for 31 years, the first technical was already one too many, just don't look at the man.
Jebus, that's muthashutchyomouth ridiculous.
Update: Apparently, the second technical was given to Duncan because Crawford couldn't endure Duncan's towering laugh (actually, he has a pretty high voice). Duncan later said Crawford asked if he wanted to fight, and Duncan added he would gladly take him on. I mean, the season's not over yet, technically; but, yeah, this is pretty bad.
Update:
So... the NBA now controls the emotions of their players. On the sidelines. What are they going to do next, change the age limit?
Update: 4/17/07
Crawford has been suspended for the rest of the season.
Ok yes, the season is almost over so he is only missing one regular season game, but he will be suspended throughout finals as well.
Sounds pretty fair to me, but what doesn't is the NBA also fining Duncan $25,000 for verbal abuse of an official because Crawford said that Duncan referred to him with an expletive.
If you ask me, after those bs technical calls, this is probably a bunch of baloney as well.
Duncan adamantly told Michelle Tafoya and other reporters that he did not say anything to Crawford to provoke him.
And I believe him, because to be honest, Tim Duncan seems like a good role model for kids watching him. Usually.
