Built Ford Tough Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 Eye on Basketball @EyeOnBasketballCeltics G Rajon Rondo suspended for two games for chucking the ball at NBA referee Sean Wright bit.ly/y0Jmvd Adrian Wojnarowski @WojYahooNBARondo will miss Boston's road games with Dallas and Oklahoma City this week. Here is a video of the play: http://www.sbnation.com/nba/2012/2/19/2810873/rajon-rondo-ejection-video-throws-ball-at-ref Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DunkinDerozan Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 That was a brutal call by the ref. I can understand why Rondo would be fed up, but he's gotta control his actions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Make It Naaaashty Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 What a soft call. That deserved a technical at most which he got. I understand he hit the ref in the chest but it's no where near a suspension. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guru Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 Just another example of the terrible refereeing this year. But yeah Rondo shouldn't have tossed the ball to the ref like that... didn't help that he was grilling him either lmao Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand he hit the ref in the chest but it's no where near a suspension. In the league's defense, this isn't the first time Rondo has been in hot water for throwing a ball at an official so I imagine his past played a part in the decision to suspend him.

deestillballin Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 Terrible call all together. If you look close ref wasn't even pay attention in my eyes. I don't think its worthy of suspension, ejection or even a tech. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fish7718 Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 (edited) It wasn't so much how hard he threw it, or where it hit him. It was the disrespectful manner in which he did it. Dudes making a call and your just gonna fling the ball into his chest and stare him down? 2 Games deserved, these players have to learn how to respect the refs more.

ChosenOne Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 I agree with the suspension 2 games were definitely needed in this situation. I don't understand how some consider this a bad decision. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't understand how some consider this a bad decision. The two games was definitely warranted. You don't disrespect a referee like that.

Flash Posted February 22, 2012 Report Share Posted February 22, 2012 Maybe if the ref actually did his job none of this would've happened.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
