Pretty cool they analyze how much air pressure is a common foul when a player breathes on Haren.

Argubly the hardest job in the NBA that also gets ZERO respect. You'll always upset someone with a call. And if you've ever refed a game you'll know its really fucking hard.

He's been an awful ref so far in the NBA. The bum has at least one massive controversy to his name, and he stole Game 2 from Denver tonight in the Finals because of his questionable officiating. He should be fired by the league for fixing games.

Refs are given a lot of leeway ( deservedly so ). If players make mistakes they get benched and honestly cut or can lose their entire career so quick. It’s a cutthroat league for players.

Blind people are getting more and more opportunities these days. Such an accomplishment.

reffing in the NBA must be really tough. it happens so fast and there are so many things to look at at the same time. But I still think football (soccer) is more difficult to ref.

One of the toughest jobs in the NBA, or any spots. I never been a ref, but I can imagine what they go through. Like hostility from the players, coaches, and fans. Omg! I even saw here on KZread a basketball ref got head-butted so bad... He needed facial reconstruction surgery. Then I remembered Nick van axle head-butted a NBA ref. And of course Rasheed Wallace who always throughout his career give refs trouble. Still holds the record for most technical fouls in a NBA career.

I wanna be a ref!!!

so were is the part that Adam silver call them in the game and they need to change the score ? nba is more wwe
