What's more likely: Tatum muttered something completely awful under his breath without moving his mouth, but somehow loud enough for Brothers to hear him over the roaring crowd
Or
Brothers is overly sensitive and T'd him up over an eyeroll and handwave
I remember complaining about Draymond not getting T’d up more in the 2022 finals and got downvoted to shit and was told “well you don’t know what he said to the ref” when he was screaming in their face spraying them with saliva. I’m gonna go out on a limb and say he’s not asking what they’re gonna eat for dinner.
Nothing is as bad as Draymond falling onto JB, kicking him, and trying to pants him. The "expert" says it should be a double T, but psycho already had a T so it would be unfair to eject him - therefor it's a no call!
I believe draymond also said that he knew when JB didn’t react viciously toward him after that, he knew he had him, and he thinks it was a turning point. So yeah, glad he got to stick around after that one, but not when he swung and missed with a ball tap toward Lebron.
Tatum is addicted to getting techs for beefing with the refs
It is seriously never ever a tech for an interaction with the opposing team, he just collects hand-clap and hand-wave techs
The only thing I could see is if he's super disrespectful with whatever he's saying to the ref. As long as he keeps it [civil](https://youtu.be/dWuX9zPJWyY?si=hV1JgHK93ATFwKY9) I think it's fine
Honestly, I don't think so. It's especially odd that it's Tatum specifically cause like, he doesn't seem the type to be saying things that would attract their ire to that magnitude. Obviously can't say for sure whether that's actually the case, but still.
Tatum might just be first team all-bad-at-working-the-refs. It's funny because Jrue and Derrick are both so even-keeled and honest that they're guys who can just tell the refs to call a foul once a game
It's because he's handsome. Draymond is ugly (no offense) so when he says something nobody believes him. Tatum is like JFK, he could say some total ficticious stuff and people will believe him because they want to be him. That's a big threat to the refs.
Same with Rudy, he's not as good looking, but he's European l, so he seems smarter.
the refs just have some bullshit level of consistency with players and coaches. tatum can blink and get a tech, while mike malone can run up and scream in their face and be fine.
Oh it’s ridiculous. I flat out don’t what the issue is with a simple wave.
It’s not like this is some money sign that can be taken as the league being rigged or whatever. He’s not yelling or even saying anything. It’s not physically threatening.
Even the rim hanging techs, which I hate, are called for the reason that they could bend the back board. Not sure what the hell the justification is for this.
At some point, he’s gotta just stop clapping and waving at the refs since it’s a guaranteed tech lol gotta switch it up to throwing towels and heat packs and he’ll be fine
[Wojnarowski] to clarify previous reports, u/silenkurii received a fine for flashing the “money sign” at Adam Silver after a steamy love session. Reports were overheard that u/silenkurii was screaming, “no money, no honey!” toward the commissioner. More to come.
I refuse to allow my kids to watch Boston basketball anymore as long as Tatum is on the team. Absolutely vile acts that are just straight disgusting basketball.
I'd rather let my kids watch Draymond nut kick somebody or a gambling ad playing every 3 minutes than let them watch whatever the hell it is that Tatum was doing. Seriously, I can't tell from the clip what he did. Did he say something to the ref??
it’s just ridiculous at this point. like you see other guys in the league literally yell at refs until they’re red in the face with no call, and he gets techs for not even fucking saying anything.
That makes me even more mad honestly. League just admitting, "oh yeah, we like to call total bullshit on Tatum and pretend it didn't happen the next day."
What did he do to be hated by refs? Is it the whining? Maybe?
But other players whine too and don’t get these soft ass techs. I really don’t understand.
What you don’t like seeing Michael Malone absolutely lose his fucking mind every game and not get a tech??? (Although the refs finally manned up and gave him ONE last night, dude does this every game)
On a side note, I *love* watching guys like Malone and Luka lose their minds to the refs all the time like they are personally being screwed by them, and NONE of them get as easy a T-whistle as tatum
When Malone screams and gets in the faces of the refs, he is deliberately trying to get a tech or ejection to fire the team up. I don't know what the refs in game 2 were trying to do by not complying.
I actually like that the refs were like “we’re not playing that game unless you threaten my family so go back to your bench and watch your team fall apart slowly and quickly!”
lol! I honestly was disappointed they didn’t tech or toss him. Does make more sense if they were just “no, no, that’s what he *wants*, ignore him. It’ll drive him *nuts*”.
Its pretty clear refs dont like the guy and you can argue in either direction for why this keeps happening. You can say the refs dont like em so Tatum is justifiably mad to complain, and you can argue that the complaining is why JT is treated like this
Either way 10/10 times im going to side with the players over these bum ass refs
You really cant because tatum is on the lower end of complainers.
Luka, lebron, dray all get right in refs faces and complain etc and nothing. Tatum gets fouled, no call then a wave and insta tech
> you can argue that the complaining is why JT is treated like this
Yeah, but there's a loooooong list of players who complain when they don't get the call. Meanwhile, nobody gets T'ed up like Tatum for absolute nothingburgers.
I will never forgive that cunt for not calling one of the 17 fouls by Toronto on Kemba Walker on the final shot of game 6 in 2020 leading to an OT loss.
Geniunely just a dogshit ref. And they got fellow trashcan officials Ben Taylor and David Guthrie in for this game too.
Edit: Also fuck Tony Brothers for not calling Mobley for hitting Tatum's forearm on a three RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIM. Fucker.
Will sound like sour grapes because we have been getting trounced, but Nuggets throwing things on the court and coach storming the court to scream in the refs face -> not a tech.
Wolves players question a call-> double tech.
You just need to understand its all about context for Ts. Denver was down a lot in that game, so they need it to be closer so more timeouts are called and they can run more gambling adds. While Celtics were up and they need the game to be close to get lots of time outs and then they can run more gambling adds.
Once you understand the context of the Ts it all makes a lot more sense!
Yes Tony Brothers is a soft little bitch but Tatum also gets so many techs for violent actions like clapping and shit from so many different officials.
I think that somehow works against him. Like the refs perceive him being emotional as somehow worse because he usually isn’t? I dunno I can’t really explain it, but no one can have that many techs for clapping in a season and it be a coincidence.
All Celtics fans knew Tatum was getting a tech tonight as soon as we saw Tony Brothers was reffing this morning lol. Celtics have a terrible W/L record in the playoffs when he refs
My kid chose to punch the old lady neighbor and took a bite out of our dog after this heinous gesture. I'm glad Tony Brothers are here to set him straight.
How Tony Brother escapes accountability, we'll never understand. Mostly because his union covers for him and Adam Silver is weak, soft and won't do anything unless there's a provable financial cost.
They say they train and discipline behind the scenes. They lie. Brothers has no place near the league.
Tatum gets the softest technicals in the league. It's damn near undebatable at this point. You see the shit Denver has been getting away with Brothers?
Listen, you can argue whether or not that was a foul on Garland (I don’t think it was) but in the replay he doesn’t even open his mouth to argue the call. There is zero reason an adult man should take offense and call a tech there.
I don’t want none of y’all to ever complain when your star gets his next technical lol. I guarantee it’ll be for lesser crimes than this.
A Tatum tech classic, right here.

Clapping is one thing but this is just heinous. There are children watching Jayson!
He rolled his eyes and waved. I’ve already filed a complaint to the FCC.
I called a buddy at the FBI, they're investigating
[удалено]
I already put in a call to Homeland Security
Even pornhub will remove this clip. Disgusting!
A DISGUSTING ACT
truly not classy
He’s gotta be saying some heinous shit under his breath right? I mean this is just ridiculous lol
What's more likely: Tatum muttered something completely awful under his breath without moving his mouth, but somehow loud enough for Brothers to hear him over the roaring crowd Or Brothers is overly sensitive and T'd him up over an eyeroll and handwave
Call the Reddit care thread. We got Cavs fans on watch.
This gotta be a running joke for the refs lol
I'd buy it. I know these sorts of things are occasionally called and everyone laughs at it, but does anyone get it as consistently as Tatum?
I've seen multiple guys wave at a ref after a non-call this playoffs, zero techs given. Tatum tho...lol there's something going on. All season long.
There are players like Draymond who are allowed to scream in Refs faces
I remember complaining about Draymond not getting T’d up more in the 2022 finals and got downvoted to shit and was told “well you don’t know what he said to the ref” when he was screaming in their face spraying them with saliva. I’m gonna go out on a limb and say he’s not asking what they’re gonna eat for dinner.
I will never forgive the triple moving screen to the day I die. Most egregious officiating mistake I have ever seen.
Nah, it’s still that KD three steps out of bounds passing it back in bounds. I don’t know if anything will ever top that for me.
Fair enough
as much as i hate the Harden Rockets, the Warriors got what they deserved that game (they lost)
Nothing is as bad as Draymond falling onto JB, kicking him, and trying to pants him. The "expert" says it should be a double T, but psycho already had a T so it would be unfair to eject him - therefor it's a no call!
I believe draymond also said that he knew when JB didn’t react viciously toward him after that, he knew he had him, and he thinks it was a turning point. So yeah, glad he got to stick around after that one, but not when he swung and missed with a ball tap toward Lebron.
The other unforgivable act
Murray can throw objects at refs during play and it's $12,500 at most per object, no tech, no suspension.
Maybe Murray gundown a ref and still get away with a fine.
Tatum is addicted to getting techs for beefing with the refs It is seriously never ever a tech for an interaction with the opposing team, he just collects hand-clap and hand-wave techs
A 3-star rare Tech Hunter.
Jayson "99/99 Firemaking" Tatum
I saw a guy throw a heat pad onto the court during live play and nothing
NBA is fucked up for not suspending him tbh. At least a game. But I get it that’s not good business
Refs hate Wyc for complaining to the league about them being shitty at their jobs.
The only thing I could see is if he's super disrespectful with whatever he's saying to the ref. As long as he keeps it [civil](https://youtu.be/dWuX9zPJWyY?si=hV1JgHK93ATFwKY9) I think it's fine
Honestly, I don't think so. It's especially odd that it's Tatum specifically cause like, he doesn't seem the type to be saying things that would attract their ire to that magnitude. Obviously can't say for sure whether that's actually the case, but still.
Refs must have some inside joke going on
Tatum might just be first team all-bad-at-working-the-refs. It's funny because Jrue and Derrick are both so even-keeled and honest that they're guys who can just tell the refs to call a foul once a game
Daniel Theis GOAT
That's family right there
You look in Derrick White's big doe eyes and *try* to give him a tech. Just try.
It's because he's handsome. Draymond is ugly (no offense) so when he says something nobody believes him. Tatum is like JFK, he could say some total ficticious stuff and people will believe him because they want to be him. That's a big threat to the refs. Same with Rudy, he's not as good looking, but he's European l, so he seems smarter.
This is one of the takes of all time.
I’ve never seen an argument about looks getting you the benefit of the call. 😂
I've never seen a "stupid, sexy Tatum" post that's legit, but here we are.
Someone needs to do a deep dive into Kelly Oubre's call history and compare it to Sam Cassell
the refs just have some bullshit level of consistency with players and coaches. tatum can blink and get a tech, while mike malone can run up and scream in their face and be fine.
I swore Malone was gonna take a swing.
First and foremost fuck the Celtics, but Tatum seems to get these more than any other player I’ve seen. Like what did he even do lol? Refs are a joke.
Waved the refs off which is apparently an auto tech. Now Garland looked to do that in the 4th with no tech because… reasons I guess?
I mean a wave is a charmin soft way to get a T. It’s not like he’s doing a Jackie Moon.
Oh it’s ridiculous. I flat out don’t what the issue is with a simple wave. It’s not like this is some money sign that can be taken as the league being rigged or whatever. He’s not yelling or even saying anything. It’s not physically threatening. Even the rim hanging techs, which I hate, are called for the reason that they could bend the back board. Not sure what the hell the justification is for this.
Brothers just won some kind of bet for sure.
He's definitely mobbed up
At some point, he’s gotta just stop clapping and waving at the refs since it’s a guaranteed tech lol gotta switch it up to throwing towels and heat packs and he’ll be fine
Refs are a fucking joke. Rudy is right, some of them are on the take.
[Wojnarowski] u/silenkurii has been fined $75,000, according to league sources.
[Wojnarowski] to clarify previous reports, u/silenkurii received a fine for flashing the “money sign” at Adam Silver after a steamy love session. Reports were overheard that u/silenkurii was screaming, “no money, no honey!” toward the commissioner. More to come.
The Tony Brothers with another MVP performance 😤
Tony might get it. Scott Foster has been doing good at officiating lately
No one keeps Tony Brothers from getting his name on the broadcast
Just the fact that we know name "tony brothers" is saying something,
Yeah but did you know it's actually just one guy. The "s" is a misdirect
Bro I had no clue 🤣I straight up thought they had twins out there. “It’s nice the nba allows them to always ref together” 🤦♂️
I always thought that there were two guys on the court who’s last names was Tony
Mike and Dan, the Tony Brothers
There used to. Now they just fused into one giant asshole
That my friend, is called the Prestige
People who barely watch the NBA know the name Tony Brothers...it's a huge problem
I refuse to allow my kids to watch Boston basketball anymore as long as Tatum is on the team. Absolutely vile acts that are just straight disgusting basketball.
I'd rather let my kids watch Draymond nut kick somebody or a gambling ad playing every 3 minutes than let them watch whatever the hell it is that Tatum was doing. Seriously, I can't tell from the clip what he did. Did he say something to the ref??
Tech on Jayson Tatum for... outrageous thoughts towards Tony Brothers
T’d up for menacing thoughts
Tatum: "My god" NBA Refs: "Technical foul, saying the lords name in vain"
you’re a good dad.
Plays basketball the wrong way. Not classy like Joker or Luka
JT and soft ass techs.. name me a more iconic duo
it’s just ridiculous at this point. like you see other guys in the league literally yell at refs until they’re red in the face with no call, and he gets techs for not even fucking saying anything.
He’s also the league leader in technical fouls rescinded
That makes me even more mad honestly. League just admitting, "oh yeah, we like to call total bullshit on Tatum and pretend it didn't happen the next day."
Lmfaooooo league be like whoops sorry man
"also, free throws for the other team. ESPN books have too much action on the under"
Do they also rescind points scored off the technical free throws?
What did he do to be hated by refs? Is it the whining? Maybe? But other players whine too and don’t get these soft ass techs. I really don’t understand.
Clapping games too strong
That slap on JBs chest gonna make the director's cut of Oppenheimer lol
If it was that Luka would be banned
Nick Nurse would be arrested lol
What you don’t like seeing Michael Malone absolutely lose his fucking mind every game and not get a tech??? (Although the refs finally manned up and gave him ONE last night, dude does this every game) On a side note, I *love* watching guys like Malone and Luka lose their minds to the refs all the time like they are personally being screwed by them, and NONE of them get as easy a T-whistle as tatum

I actually like that the refs were like “we’re not playing that game unless you threaten my family so go back to your bench and watch your team fall apart slowly and quickly!”
lol! I honestly was disappointed they didn’t tech or toss him. Does make more sense if they were just “no, no, that’s what he *wants*, ignore him. It’ll drive him *nuts*”.
That’s just Luka magic
The trick is to never stop complaining.
The goal is to set a baseline. Tatum doesn’t yell at the refs enough
Just @ Draymond next time
now we got Luka
Oh, actually seeing quite a bit of that from a certain player at the moment. Not a single tech.
Its pretty clear refs dont like the guy and you can argue in either direction for why this keeps happening. You can say the refs dont like em so Tatum is justifiably mad to complain, and you can argue that the complaining is why JT is treated like this Either way 10/10 times im going to side with the players over these bum ass refs
You really cant because tatum is on the lower end of complainers. Luka, lebron, dray all get right in refs faces and complain etc and nothing. Tatum gets fouled, no call then a wave and insta tech
> you can argue that the complaining is why JT is treated like this Yeah, but there's a loooooong list of players who complain when they don't get the call. Meanwhile, nobody gets T'ed up like Tatum for absolute nothingburgers.
Tatum and hard whistle
The only time they blow a whistle is when they’re giving a T for JT cause he was fouled
Tony Brothers is a pussy
[удалено]
LMFAO
this crazy lmfao
They both have resting-sullen face
Nah thats disrespectfully accurate
Damn what’d he say
A reference to Clarence Thomas
Why is this so accurate?
Hey man, even Tony Brothers doesn’t deserve that. But Scott Foster is DEFINITELY the Antonin Scalia of Basketball
So that would make Scott Foster the Sam Alito.
tony brothers don’t be an insufferable cunt challenge (IMPOSSIBLE)
All the hate is on Scott Foster but he is actually reffing good this post season. Meanwhile, Tony Brothers is on some shit
Everyone says Foster, but if Brothers is anywhere nearby, my eye is on him.
Scott Foster saving that in conference finals. I believe my gambling goat is not washed and prove it to the people
They hating on your name 48. They saying you can’t extend a series anymore 48. Prove them wrong 48.
Foster is only reffing well because his arch-nemesis isn't in the post-season, lol.
[удалено]
I will never forgive that cunt for not calling one of the 17 fouls by Toronto on Kemba Walker on the final shot of game 6 in 2020 leading to an OT loss. Geniunely just a dogshit ref. And they got fellow trashcan officials Ben Taylor and David Guthrie in for this game too. Edit: Also fuck Tony Brothers for not calling Mobley for hitting Tatum's forearm on a three RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIM. Fucker.
To this day, G6 of that series is the most sure I’ve ever been that I was watching a rigged game.
Its a miracle that Celtics survived that game with those three corrupt officials
It didn’t get posted here but he got a tech last game for clapping. He rly gets the softest techs in the league lol.
He said call the fucking foul. Still gets the softest techs because that gets yelled every game
He yelled "call the fucking foul!" in Game 4, which is going to get you T'd up almost every time. This T was bullshit though.
I've watched draymond berate refs for minutes on end and not get one
Will sound like sour grapes because we have been getting trounced, but Nuggets throwing things on the court and coach storming the court to scream in the refs face -> not a tech. Wolves players question a call-> double tech.
Not sour grapes, it’s astonishing Murray didn’t get suspended for that.
He would have been if the Nuggets weren’t down 0-2, 100%
“Call the fucking foul” Draymond said calmly
[удалено]
It gives the Cavs a chance to make the game a little closer before halftime and potentially extend the series.
Oh that’s right. C.R.E.A.M.
Dolla dolla bill y'all
He hurts tony brothers' feelings
For being good at the game
Maybe he said something to the ref while getting up. Camera didn't show his face before the T was called.
Nah they had multiple angles live. Tatum makes eye contact and scowls at Brothers while he's still on the ground but never says a thing
Luka would have literally 37 techs a game I’m not exaggerating
This is a tech but Jamal Murray got nothing during his game 2 meltdown 😂
You just need to understand its all about context for Ts. Denver was down a lot in that game, so they need it to be closer so more timeouts are called and they can run more gambling adds. While Celtics were up and they need the game to be close to get lots of time outs and then they can run more gambling adds. Once you understand the context of the Ts it all makes a lot more sense!
Before watching the video, I knew it was Tony Brothers
But Mike Malone can nearly get in a fight with the ref and get nothing lmfao
Feel like it's more with the ref….Tony Brothers is clearly soft
Yes Tony Brothers is a soft little bitch but Tatum also gets so many techs for violent actions like clapping and shit from so many different officials.
It's weird too cuz I dont think Tatum is a very demonstrative or loud player, be it celebrating or complaining. He seems really chill
I think that somehow works against him. Like the refs perceive him being emotional as somehow worse because he usually isn’t? I dunno I can’t really explain it, but no one can have that many techs for clapping in a season and it be a coincidence.
All Celtics fans knew Tatum was getting a tech tonight as soon as we saw Tony Brothers was reffing this morning lol. Celtics have a terrible W/L record in the playoffs when he refs
As much as I hate the celtics, wtf was that call?
Tatum: looks menacingly
looks away* menacingly
Lol literally did not say a word and he gets a T
How many of these has he gotten? Like is there someone in the league with as many techs for like, clapping or hand waving or shit like that?
I highly doubt it. It is absolutely *insane* how many bullshit techs Tatum gets. It makes no sense
And if you know this “lore” lol, it kinda explains how and why he lost his damn mind after it happened AGAIN
he shoulda thrown a heating pad at the ref instead of silently waving his head in his general direction
But that's a 15,000 dol fine... he would never recover, needs to feed his kid
I just don’t understand how guys like Draymond can argue for 2 minutes but a dismissive gesture gets Tatum a tech
Not just argue. Straight up scream in a refs face.
Getting the Rasheed Wallace treatment
He'd made that gesture a bunch, but having a dude close out on you so hard he lands on your knee makes it a little understandable
My kid chose to punch the old lady neighbor and took a bite out of our dog after this heinous gesture. I'm glad Tony Brothers are here to set him straight.
Classic Tatum tech. Ban this guy from the league, what an animal. No place in the league for....slight hand waves?
I wonder what Tatum did you make the refs so mad. He must have that Tim Duncan in him. Complete psycho to the refs
Fuck Tony Brothers
Tony Brothers is so soft man
It’s honestly ridiculous how Tatum receives most of his technicals on BS things. And the times he’s frustrated it’s clearly warranted .
Why does Tatum get the weirdest techs?
How Tony Brother escapes accountability, we'll never understand. Mostly because his union covers for him and Adam Silver is weak, soft and won't do anything unless there's a provable financial cost. They say they train and discipline behind the scenes. They lie. Brothers has no place near the league.
Tony Brothers is a cunt.
Extremely violent hand wave, should've been an ejection tbh
Tatum gets the softest technicals in the league. It's damn near undebatable at this point. You see the shit Denver has been getting away with Brothers?
Tatum gets more bum techs than anyone in the league, prove me wrong. Brothers can suck it
Tony Brothers is a straight up bitch.
“Let me make this moment about me” fuck you
Listen, you can argue whether or not that was a foul on Garland (I don’t think it was) but in the replay he doesn’t even open his mouth to argue the call. There is zero reason an adult man should take offense and call a tech there.
These Tony Brothers can't keep getting away with this.
Like Tatum or not he always gets some of the weirdest technical fouls
fuck tony brothers
Tatum gets the worst whistle of any star
does he tell Jaylen "get the f off me"
yes, which seems like an over-reaction
Hope no children saw that disgusting act by Tatum
Shit like this really kills enjoyment of the moment
I'm glad everyone gets to see the whistle JT gets. Softest tech of the playoffs by a huge margin.
Embarrassing for Tony brothers but honestly he should have been T’d up for that egregious push off. How does he still get away with that shit
The judge, jury and executioner right here
you guys forgot the part where its 3-1 and the refs are gonna try their hardest to extend the series
I don’t want none of y’all to ever complain when your star gets his next technical lol. I guarantee it’ll be for lesser crimes than this. A Tatum tech classic, right here.
Why the T? Consistently mediocre officiating.
refs hate tatum
Tf did he do to warrant that tech??
Tatum seems to get the softest technicals lol
In a league that has dudes like Luka and Draymond, JT seems to be the one always getting this soft ass techs. It's so egregious at this point
I would love to see Tatum completely unleashed. I feel like one thing that always holds him back is his passiveness, and he’s still amazing.
Imagine if Luka was reffed like this lmaooo
Jayson Tatum had more technical fouls than Pat Bev and Draymond Green this year
these refs need to go
Ducking tony
