Kawhi lack of respect from refs is pretty disturbing...
I don't like trend of referees considering a guy of his caliber and name recognition to be completely hackable..Even Pop figures he needs to get technichals for him to get an occasional call....
Scrubs are mauling him and he is barely getting freebies or +1s...
-
Re: Kawhi lack of respect from refs is pretty disturbing...
It's alarming. Hopefully he plays through it and stays aggressive.
-
Re: Kawhi lack of respect from refs is pretty disturbing...
Yeah fuck, there was one against the Kings, under the ring, that was a fucking jooooooooooooookkkkkkkkeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
Makes me think the games rigged when shit like that happens, they just flat out don't call shit.

Re: Kawhi lack of respect from refs is pretty disturbing...
They've called a tremendous amount of less flops this year. Not saying Kawhi is flopping, but their mindset has definitely been different on calls this year. Seems they're letting them play more. Hopefully he gets them in the playoffs tho. When their is more focus on less games, they usually tighten down.

Re: Kawhi lack of respect from refs is pretty disturbing...
Officially treated like a scrub by the zebras..
-
Re: Kawhi lack of respect from refs is pretty disturbing...
The offensive foul was pretty horrid. Van Gundy was right. He needs to chew out the refs. Worst call was the Green flop though. I think they called Aldridge and LMA didn't touch him.
-
Re: Kawhi lack of respect from refs is pretty disturbing...
It's very obvious why the refs don't give him the calls, tbh..a lot of people won't like to hear the reason, though:lol..
-
Re: Kawhi lack of respect from refs is pretty disturbing...
Some of the stuff they call AGAINST Kawhi off ball is absolutely mind boggling.
-
Re: Kawhi lack of respect from refs is pretty disturbing...
Glad JVG called them out. Kawhi is right there with D Rose when it comes to the officials
-
Re: Kawhi lack of respect from refs is pretty disturbing...
If they let GS get away with this shit every game we are screwed.
-
Re: Kawhi lack of respect from refs is pretty disturbing...
Man I couldn't believe those couple of calls just when kiwi was handing the Warriors their ass.
Yet Curry gets the kiwi steal and the charity 3 frees. :claw:claw
-
Re: Kawhi lack of respect from refs is pretty disturbing...
It's pathetic. Not sure what's going to change it though.
Leonard has been in the refs ears. Pop and Timmy have been vocal about it to the media. Even JVG called attention to it. Not just for this game but previous ones.
The best thing he can do is play through it. Stay aggressive. He did a little bit tonight but I think frustration won out at times too.

Let's hear it :lol

Re: Kawhi lack of respect from refs is pretty disturbing...
Refs don't know how to call a fair game when players have a size and strength advantage. They let those small teams get away with murder.
-
Re: Kawhi lack of respect from refs is pretty disturbing...
He doesn't work them at all, it needs to start in the first quarter. But let's face it. He doesn't sacrifice himself on offense either
-
Re: Kawhi lack of respect from refs is pretty disturbing...
What does KL have to do to get a foul call.....No love at all....
-
Re: Kawhi lack of respect from refs is pretty disturbing...
I think he needs to grow a beard, stop playing defense and film a ton of really shitty commercials.
-
Re: Kawhi lack of respect from refs is pretty disturbing...
I think Kawhi could turn into something really scary if he lost it tbh :lol it's always the quiet ones... I'd like to see it tho
-
Re: Kawhi lack of respect from refs is pretty disturbing...
expect the pain and accept the pain

He's done 2 of those things tbh

Re: Kawhi lack of respect from refs is pretty disturbing...
KL will probably be a triple double machine next year

Shitty commercials people have actually seen. Better.

Re: Kawhi lack of respect from refs is pretty disturbing...
The foul when he intercepted a pass to Curry and the offensive foul when he was posting Curry were pretty bad calls.

I'm sure it's some kind of racial thing, but that wouldn't explain Harden.

Damn that sucks, but even if there is some sort of racial profiling or whatnot, Kawhi seems like a quiet dude and not very thug-ish.
-
Re: Kawhi lack of respect from refs is pretty disturbing...
It's pretty simple. Kawhi is a great player but he doesn't dribble drive often and he doesn't look for contact. He's also totally silent and by the second half when getting calls really matters it's too late.
-
Re: Kawhi lack of respect from refs is pretty disturbing...
It's because he's not star material, not marketable. He's borderline autistic or that's how he appears, and he's not going to be the face of the NBA over Curry. Also, he's dark skinned with cornrows.

He needs to do more commercials like the bbva compass one tonight. He says he doesn't care about the fame. But the spurs kinda need his fame right now.

Pretty sure no one watches the BBVA ads outside of the FSSW viewing area.

Alarming is a stretch, we'll get to that verbiage if it continues in the playoffs.

It aired on ABC tonight, most likely area specific.

Not sure why you're pushing this schtick so hard tbh We've had plenty of darkskinned NBA stars that got preferrential treatment from the refs... Kawhi just doesn't look for cintact much and hasn't learned how to bait the refs yet either. Most times when they show replays of his supposed drives where he's being "hacked", there's minimal contact at most.
-
Re: Kawhi lack of respect from refs is pretty disturbing...
Although I have to say he attempted the most FT's tonight out of anyone on both teams.
But yes, he got screwed on a couple of those calls. On the other hand, the spurs did get a few breaks too when that kawhi pass that looked like a travel (didn't replay it) and the danny green travel non call.
-
Re: Kawhi lack of respect from refs is pretty disturbing...
disgusting and unreal shit...it getting worse by the day..
-
Re: Kawhi lack of respect from refs is pretty disturbing...
Refs should call a foul a foul, no matter who it is. Respect should not be a factor. Unless yer Obama who spells it rspect, cuz he's a moron. But that some other debate.

Re: Kawhi lack of respect from refs is pretty disturbing...
let me guess they hacked the shit out of him. only way they can win. bad thing is the league will see that they can control us if they just let the other team hack.
and I bet pop doesn't say a word......he should have gotten himself thrown out.
