NBA is trash. Only reason I watch is because the Bobcats, I never watch any other games or buy merchandise.

How can anyone take the NBA's new policy on refs as anything but protecting them so they can fix games? There have already been cases of refs fixing NBA games and now they can't be criticized for making poor calls? You can't react to a play? You can't look at a ref the wrong way? Tim Duncan can't laugh on the bench?

Stern is a moron and the refs need to have thicker skin or be fired. If they are that mentally weak then they should be replaced.

This is beyond ridiculous, can't wait till reporters start exploiting refs in the NBA. Its so obvious that they are not only abusing there powers, but calling games that are gonna end up getting players hurt, every game iv watched of the Bobcats its getting more and more physical because players understand that the refs are letting fouls slide by. I don't understand how you can throw out a player for telling a ref that he just got slapped by two different people muchless suspend him for a game.

I just hate when refs call touch fouls and don't bother calling fouls when you get smacked in the face.

I remember back in junior high school, I was in a church basketball league, and this guy on a team we were playing against yelled "where's the foul??" after attempting a shot. The ref signaled a T and said "right here." The guy just said "But I.." and boom, T number 2, he was tossed.

I still remember how funny that was, but also how sad that it's what NBA officiating has become. And because of the new emphasis on complaining, I'm sure a photo of Steven Jackson was on the cover of the training booklet given to refs this past summer. He has no chance whatsoever. They are gunning for him before they toss up the jump ball. Sad.

      OFFICIAL 2026 Undrafted Free Agent Thread

      By strato · Posted

      Yep. I was hoping for and calling for a day three guy. But I didn’t research the position to say if we should or should‘t have jumped at a particular guy at a particular spot.    And everything I read said it was a poor draft for RBs depth wise. I guess when Seattle takes a backup RB in the 1st, that kind of backs that up.    I definitely think we should keep 4 running backs and if King can play well enough then keep him too.    I believe I heard Canales say we are a running team (talking about drafting a WR he will be needing to block as well as catch). Well if we are gonna be a running team by identity we don’t need to stock the WR room to overflowing. If one room has to sacrifice, it should not be the RB room given our circumstances.

      Dan had a great draft

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      If there's a pattern I'm definitely picking up from Dan and company is a philosophy of making trades where we try not to sacrifice the number of draft picks we have by day's end. In other words, we're not giving up three picks for one, or giving up a future pick to make a pick today. And even if we give up something at the start, we make trades later to make up for that initial loss. Here's how it stacked up for 2026: How we started: 19, 51, 83, 119, 158, 159, 200 How we ended: 19, 49, 83, 129, 144, 151, 227 (no future picks sacrificed) Ultimately, we moved up two spots in the second to ensure we got someone we coveted, gave up a few spots for our fourth round pick, but then had better picks in the 5th (and got really good value out of them), and had a worse 7th rounder which isn't that big of a loss anyways.  At this point, we can question who they draft, but they're pretty good maneuvering across the draft board.
