NBA officials are sissies.

Argue one call with a ref and he gives you a technical in the NBA. Imagine if in the NFL the officials penalized a team 5 yards each time they argued a call. It'd be insane.

The ref in the Pistons game is passing them out like candy on Halloween.

In Rugby, whenever ou argue a call, it's a penalty and ten yards loss. Talk about referee respect !

My biggest problem with NBA officiating is that within the same game the refs will go from calling everything (even the slightest contact) to completely ignoring guys getting mugged at times. It's like they just flip-flop between "call everything" and "call nothing."
