MF-ers are acting like he wound up and threw it at her head. He was sitting down and passing to someone standing up. Probably felt like he needed to account for that difference to get the ball over to her.

I agree that an ejection was a bit much.

I might be completely mistaken as the ref still requested removal, but it seems like the she wouldn't have requested removal of the fan if Luka and Lakers bench didn't try to act like knights in shining armor. If the players wouldn't have been bitches, that fan would have got to watch the rest of the game like he should have.

There was absolutely zero malice in that pass.

can you even imagine what would've happened if she didn't? An inflated rubber ball may have hit her going at least SEVERAL miles per hour! I hope they give him a lifetime ban.

I guess it was a hard pass, but the ref was obviously looking considering she easily handled the pass with one hand. He passed it, she caught it. Where's the foul? Luka acting like he beamed her in the head with it is some real soft arse shite.

Jesus why would anybody watch any of that shite? That's a lot of stuff in a nutshell, throw somebody a basketball and everyone gets offended. I loved playing basketball but most people knew it was the sport for the pussies who didn't like being hit in football

lol. Did you ever play basketball with real athletes? It’s physical as frick. Tons of elbows, hard fouls. The game wasn’t like this in the 90s. I played football, and everyone on my basketball team did too. Baseball is where the pussies go.

Should have deflated the ball first and then had it gift wrapped.

That’s not how you return the ball. You wait for her to ask for it or maybe bounce it slowly to get. Instead he threw the ball fairly forcefully at someone that hadn’t asked for it and wasn’t expecting it at that moment. She just barely got her arm up in time to block it.



Eeeeeeeven if that's the case...no need to throw him out.

Well that’s definitely what he did and can only be excused if he never played the sport before. You don’t pass the ball at that speed at that close of a distance. You can easily break someone fingers doing that shite.

I want you morons to go in your back yard with your wives and try to throw the ball at that speed to her at that distance and report back to me how it turns out.

My gf and I play regularly, and we don't hold back passing the ball. I routinely zing chess passes to her, and she to me. She catches it, and doesn't act like a weak bitch

My wife would not have caught it, but she would have definitely deflected it. Because she’s not a flimsy small child and the ball wasn’t a missile.

So I would definitely expect an NBA referee to be able to handle that kind of a pass and not be harmed by it. Kinda like how this lady was not harmed.
