Myles Turner: 'The refs are like the police. If you f*ck with one of them, you f*ck with all of them'

Myles Turner: These refs are human, bro. And they have human emotions as well. So if you go out there and cuss a ref out, or front him out in front of people, they’re going to remember that crap. There’s a perfect example of this. I think Fred VanVleet — this was like two, three years ago, right? He said he went off in his postgame presser about one of the refs. Went crazy. He didn’t get calls for three months straight, boy. Because I’m going to tell you right now, I told you the refs are like the police. If you fudge with one of them, you fudge with all of them, you know? And it’s like they band together, and it’s like, “Nah, he’s not getting no calls.” And I’ve seen it actually happen, bro. It’s crazy. And one thing you’ll see, too, is like the rookie refs, or the younger refs, the veteran refs really look out for them. So if you go after a rookie ref, or cuss them out — or the female refs as well, like on our side — if you go after the female refs, the veteran refs will come in and step in, and basically fudge you out of the game.
