Lebron gets a ref to reverse a technical he originally gave him

Asshole comment. It's not that easy to just 'stop watching' when you've been a ing fan for decades.

THIS. And thank you. Despite issues such as the one I've raised, my Spurs have still managed to win 4 les so I'm just trying to raise concerns and hope things change and get better. What's with this "if you don't like it, leave" bull , though?

There are a lot of reasons to think the NBA is rigged, but this isn't one of them. If Lebron wasn't yelling at the ref, then he shouldn't get a technical. How about acknowledging that the ref called a quick tech like that in the first place?

Because refs mistakenly have given technicals several times and have never reversed them. Even ESPN 'analysts' were surprised the ref reversed that tech for Lebron. Had it been Duncan or TP or Manu, that tech would NOT have been reversed by that ref. No way. Oh well, time to move on. Let's get Game 2!

Gary Payton did this once in 2002. I remember it vividly. It was against us in the playoffs. I'm sure it has happened before and will happen in the future.

Basically. Its not something that you can prevent, just accept it.
