Memphis Grizzlies Head Coach Taylor Jenkins thoughts on the game tonight: “Saddle up. One of the most poorly officiated games I’ve ever seen. Recorded. I’m fine with it. Fucking atrocious.”

    all i saw was that JJJ call but if it was all like that then yeah i get it

  2. MaximumestBob

    I didn’t watch the game but pop off

    I’m not one to cry about refs generally, but the way they handled Jaren’s ejection was embarrassing. These people are supposed to be professional. They should have some standards. Instead they’re ignoring blatant fouls giddy for the opportunity to eject someone.

    The Jazz played well and deserved to win. They shouldn’t be overshadowed by amateur hour bullshit.

    I don’t even expect the Grizzlies to keep up on the foul calls, we aren’t playing basketball that is going to get teams in foul trouble. But these people are missing clear, blatant hacks, and then instantly blowing the whistle for a T. Ref the fucking game.

    I just want to watch my favourite players fucking play.

    Taylor Jenkins finally standing on business.

  5. kenshin2k

    He went off at the refs there with a smile on his face at the end, I respect it. Worth the fines.

  6. Guts709

    Be nice to see Monty Williams go off like this. He’s making enough damn money anyway

  7. TitanTigers

    Genuinely embarrassing product. NBA can’t keep ignoring it.

  8. aqueanebean

    Yes the Grizzlies suck, but they are not getting a fair shot at it.

  9. bipokufan

    almost a total non sequitur but anyone else getting kevin owens vibes from this?

  10. Andrewski18

    That was honestly going to a really fun game too without the refs deciding to take over. Sorry Grizbros.

  11. Comrade_agent

    30k fine getting deposited into the refs account😎

  12. bobbdac7894

    I think nba officials should get fined for obviously terrible calls. That seems like the only fix

  13. Nweber15

    Hopefully more coaches call out the officiating. It’s been pretty bad

  14. thegodfaubel

    This is two stars in three nights that have been ejected due to extremely horrendous officials

  15. desertbirdwatcher

    Remember this league protected any other refs from being investigated along with Tim Donaghy for game fixing.

    Also same game parlays are available now on all your favourite betting apps play today!

    Eject the entire team. Piss of advertisers. Hit nba revenue. Then things will change.

    I didn’t watch this game but you just know at this point that any post game rant of this nature is completely justified.

    Adam Silver and the NBA has done nothing on a communications standpoint to explain to fans why the games are called a particular way. Its asinine that in a league where sports betting is legal, that fans get no explanation why one set of refs chooses to call the game a different way than another set of refs. The barely audible coaches challenge explanation. A measly last 2 minute report in a world where there are a billion data points.

    Reffing is the only thing that I can see that might make me stop watching the game one day.

    Why can’t they publish pre-game reports for how games will be called. It probably isn’t a surprise to the coaches and players that “Scott Foster is probably calling the game this way tonight unlike how Bill Kennedy called it 2 nights ago”. Give us a mini library of video examples of what this ref has called in the past. Let us audit the game or something..

  18. Refs have no respect for small market teams. The utter disregard of our complaints game after game is the difference between us and the warriors when it comes to ref treatment. Watch the whole TJ interview, he repeatedly mentions that refs refuse to converse with the Grizz about enforcing stuff that has been going on all game. Don’t get me wrong we suck, but so do the refs; the difference is there is no changes being made for the small market grizz.

    At what point does the NBA intervene with the officials and make them accountable for bad/missed calls? Does every team in the league have to do something drastic for that to happen?

    I get it that these refs are the best in the world at what they do. I remember when the NFL had replacement refs for a few weeks while the regular refs were on strike and it was an absolute nightmare. But…at the same time, they should be held accountable when it looks like they are heavily favoring one team for one reason or another.

    Refs in 6 bitches. yall said we aint winning but look at us now. noone is safe, we took down giannis and the defensive player of the year.

  21. ATLHawksfan

    The Hawks Magic game in Mexico City was absolutely nuked by refball…zero flow for most of the game because of constant yet inconsistent calls

  22. So happy I didn’t get league pass this season. This shit is becoming unwatchable.

  23. Ginoblee

    Fuck yeah, we need more of this from THEM. Not us, they don’t care about the fans bitching on Reddit. But if coaches and players eat their fines to say this publicly we may get somewhere!

  24. UllrCtrl

    How long is the NBA going to ignore the ref issue in the NBA? It feels like every other day it’s some other ridiculous call. At a certain point, it almost feels like they are blatantly ignoring fouls in certain games either because of gambling or an inflated ego.

  25. What a great time to be a refs fan.

    This season is a blast. Every game is a refs fans dream.

    Where to buy some refs jersey? I can no longer wear my Tim Donaghy jersey. It’s already vaulted.

  26. kelboi20

    Okay but why am I fucking with Taylor Jenkins now? Homie standin on it!!!

  27. TheGreatMoistOne

    Say what you want about memphis but ill be god damned if we don’t get the most ‘fuck you, imma say it how it is and i dont give a fuck’ type coaches of any club not named the spurs.

  28. xXJuventino

    Refs won me some money on this game. Memphis looked like they were going to win.

  29. the_cunt_muncher

    Didn’t see the game, why is the Sheriff from Stranger Things so upset?

  30. jdjdthrow

    He said “Record it” not “Recorded”.
