  1. Ok let's be real the dude cleaning the floor was not the issue. I think it was the 2nd dude who ran between the inbounder and defender. It was unnecessary of the 2nd dude

  2. Yes you have to give techs because the last thing you need is this being something actually encouraged.

  3. It’s a delay of game call on the Pelicans. Boston asked for the ball boys to wipe up an area while not in position of the ball, thus giving his team a chance to get into their defensive set. Too many people are making something out of nothing. And it’s a technical free throw because it was the second delay of game warning/penalty on the Pels.

  4. The ball is live for inbound. Dont try to be slick and cause a delay of game so your team's defense can get set. Good call on the ref.

  5. It should be all about the safety of the players on the floor. The ball wasn't even in the inverse hand so there should have never been a delay a game

  6. Towel boy deserves a raise. He did his job that’s all that matters. If one of those million dollar players twisted their ankle. It would be a different story.

  7. Weak of the Knicks to beg for a tech on the towel boys who are looking out for their safety. Did they have some amazing inbound play that was ruined because of the towel boy? Give me a break.

  8. This is wild but at the same time I'm not too surprised I just seen the game with the Celtics and the Bulls where they gave the head coach of the Celtics as well as jaylen Brown and Tatum techs like what, only one that you can see why he got a tech was Brown cause he was going at the ref, which is something that get you automatic tech now in his defense or in the context of the matter I don't blame him because they gave his head coach a technical when he just came out then & wanted to know what was going on, even the Bulls announcers were like I don't even think he said anything crazy

  9. The Pelicans called the towel dudes to get them to wipe the floor so they could slow the Knicks tempo and get into their defensive set. 2nd time they got a delay of game, thus freethrows.

  10. This could definitely be abused. Sending the towel guy out unnecessarily if you want to delay the ball being inbounded.
