NBA Imposes Financial Sanctions on Players for Criticizing Referees

The NBA is being blunt with the criticism of the players. The league does not hesitate when it comes to imposing financial sanctions. First was Taylor Jenkinscoach of the Grizzlies, and now Paul George, after criticizing the referees in the Clippers loss to Denver Nuggets last Thursday.

“I thought we played great,” George said after the game. “It’s hard, how complicated it is to play against three others (the referees). I think they were very bad. “We played well against the current champions, I’m not one for moral victories, but it was a sign that the team is little by little getting closer to where it wants to be,” said the star.

The protests, in particular, were over free throws. “It was very bad“, he stated. “Only five free throws is disrespectful. They hit me on layups, on triples, It was something constant. In the shooting, they hit me all the time. Was a very bad job by the referees“he concluded.

In the sixth consecutive loss for the Angelenos (0-5 with Harden), Things don’t seem to work out for the Clippers. Helplessness on the court adds to frustration off it. It seems that alarms go off in a franchise that was destined to fight for the ring.
