I forgot what analyst said it, but I agree with the notion that CP3 gets treated the way he does because of a ulative effect of his reputation throughout his career. It seems like he's been very abusive towards referees for a long, long time. And so his reputation with most refs is such that most of them have a very short fuse when it comes to his whining. So what might be something innocent for a lot of players might be a technical foul on CP3. Once you get that reputation, it's hard to lose it.
I remember one time Rasheed Wallace got t'd up for laughing while he was sitting on the bench. Perhaps some of the treatment is unfair, but CP3 made his own bed.
