You see way worse from players pretty regularly . Guarantee that call doesn’t go agains LeBron.

Absent of physical contact with a player or ref it doesn't exist in that time frame.

Did it look like he lost his temper to you? I know you want to support the integrity of the refs but come on Ouchie.
It’s not supporting the integrity of the refs. We just know Booker let’s his anger get the better of him. We see it often when he feels he didn’t get a call and then creates a stupid foul outta anger. He also gets his share of techs. It’s more likely than not that he said something stupid in a hot game than some ref has it out for him.

Nobody is saying he didn’t deserve the first T but I’m trying to figure out why it’s so easy for you to not support Book on such a questionable call.

LOL it literally doesn't. I can't even think of the last time a player on a nationally televised game got two techs in 3 seconds for words.
Nationally televised game is meaningless. I get it, you guys think a ref has a conspiracy against Booker and the suns. Go crazy with that position.

This is the crux of what I am saying. I have never seen a player get 2 Techs in 3 seconds without physical contact to a player or official.

I am not even saying in the last decade. Like ever.

Its astounding.

So, Nader is now getting Frank’s minutes? I don’t understand some of these rotations.

I agree.. it really sure how folks think Book lost his cool when LB does the same thing all game long complaining for fouls in every play. He’s worse than Harden.
There’s a difference between whining which is what Lebron does all game and saying something to get a tech.

No I think a moderator / ref went on tilt and made a terrible call.

I don’t like Frank Kaminsky, but to go from starting him to not being in the rotation is pretty foolish

Without Booker the Suns aren't getting much penetration. Ball is spinning on the perimeter for the most part.

The second T was almost certainly for the bounce.
It may have been. But that’s nothing more than conjecture unless you could clearly see his mouth and read his lips for that entire exchange.
