Especially considering the suspension from techs rule the NBA have. Most of the times when it's called you are punishing the person who didn't even start ? , and then the player has to play the rest of the game on egg shells.

    Of course that ? is ? and to do at the beginning of the game is just the worst. They just having a few words, relax. They stay overreacting

    Pimpn, double techs are needed. If one player starts punching and the other one punches back, they both need a tech. 2 wrongs don't make a right.

    The problem is alot of the calls aren't worthy of being techs, the ref only call it to set the tone of the game. Why do you think 30 percent of the calls have been rescinded this year.

    complain about the use not the rule.
    the rule is effective because it allows a ref to get control of certain players
    i think the refs are too uptight and need tougher skin.
    stern backs them ? way too much.
    but the sport of basketball needs the rule
