    no it doesn't. there's a completely different count for the playoffs. it goes back to 0 for all players and there's a new count. at 7 you're suspended in the playoffs

    That sounds good other than he would be suspended again after 2 more techs

    More concern is that WB will be fouled out against those Beverley, George, Harrell, ....

    I’d rather keep track of his lack of free throws

    Bad sign that WB celebrations will get called in the playoffs, too.

    That was a horseshit call. The league is so incredibly soft now.

    it's not softness, it's being a threat to their featured teams. does a key fakers player get that T?

    Let Draymond berate you, let him do anything he wants, nothing.

    And he gets a T for that.

    **** you refs.
    **** you Adam Silver.
    **** you Kiki VanDeWeghe.

    The league upheld that tech? The league front office sucks.

    It didn't just cost them a championship.
    It cost them going down as the greatest team of all time with a championship that year since they were 73-9.

    I've often wondered if they could go back and trade two of their other championships for the one that year if they would.
    I sure would!
    To be seen as the goat team you better believe it.

    The league, were they being honest, apparently a struggle for them, should have fined the ref for that call and apologized to Westbrook and the team. They are making the value of a technical foul meaningless by not doing so.

    Well, Westbrook was playing to the fan crowd, but the NBA must have believed the Ref's lie to the otherwise. Sad, very sad. Giannis does worse and the NBA embraces it.
