Yeah he can actually do that. It's used more for when a crowd interferes with the game but pretty sure this guy was close. This comment still cracked me up though
Serves him right...HAHAHA!!! I wish him nothing but misery the rest of his useless existence. He struts around like "I'm a bad-ass ex con" but I suspect he's a corrupt bully and a cowardly punk. What does his resume say about the integrity (or lack thereof) of the NBA officiating? What a POS.
And in COVID-19 Baseball 2020, with no fans, umpires can hear everything. An off-duty pitcher was in the stands and got tossed for what he thought were bad calls. (See Jomboy)
Tim Duncan has never laughed in his life. He always has this look on his face like he doesn't speak English and he's trying to interpret what you're saying
Refs comparing stories! I once gave Timmy a tech for laughing on the the bench "beat That"... OTHER REF says "I once gave kawhi a tech for accidentaly bumping into me after the game was over
You get a technical...and you get a technical! Everybody gets a technical!! Look under your seats....we're giving you another technical to give to a friend!
Even as a Spurs fan I say this was bs. You should use technical fouls to prevent a situation from getting out of control, not because you're in a bad mood. I don't want my team to win that way.
@@dominicdinatale2079 Yet this is a rare occurrence (refs handing out T’s like candy). You can’t get a T for “being an asshole”, that’s a pretty subjective statement.
mrbow50001 kinda not how it works, if the crowd gets cleared and you refuse to move they just get the cops to move you, or can the game and whatever the score is that's the result.
Coaches should have the ability to CHALLENGE foul calls, or lack thereof. They automatically review other things like goaltending and out of bounds, add fouls, but not an automatic review.
nahor88 I am a (beginning) ref but in Europe, and it's totally different here. Some refs are shit but some are great. But they are totally not one sided. I mean look at this 5 to 0 technicals. Then 2 hard fouls not??? En look now, all the travels in the NBA. They learn us here that the NBA refs do everything for show. "He made 9 steppes??? Well he did have a nice dunk so... The point counts"
I was thinking that it seems like they've been grooming Ken Mauer to be Dick Bavetta's heir apparent as one of the league's go-to guys for fixing games. Looking at this, I think I was probably right.
Stan Lee you don't honestly think the refs are to blame for houston getting put out, right? what the hell does the nba have to gain by 'fixing' the houston/portland series? your best player was thoroughly outplayed by wes matthews... if you're looking for reasons why you lost, start there.
You know guys in all my years of watching Kurt Rambos 20 years of basketball I think he was by far one of the most agressive players to ever play the game. The guy was a true Rambo to play physical basketball with some of the best to ever play the game. Rambos went through alot of emotional and mental hell in his time he played and in my book deserves reconition for all the things he did and endured while playing the game of Basketball. Another player that went through alot is Jerry West.
2011 was collectively a horrible year for Minnesota sports. Timberwolves went 17-65, Vikings went 3-13, Twins went 63-99, and the Wild missed the playoffs. It's very rare you see a city with 4+ teams have pretty much all of them be that bad at the same time.
@@privatoist we've been stuck in a heck of a rut the last few years with all the local teams being awful together like this but it's not always that way, usually we have at least 1 team looking competitive/respectable.
nba fans just need to boycott games untill their hire good refs. they will hire good ones once they realize they arent getting the money from the fans anymore
This is the NBA right here. Let's give the shitty teams the most awful calls so the better team like the Spurs can get the calls and win the game. Welcome to the NBA everybody!!
Jen B this is a random ass reg season game lmao stop with the conspiracy theories, there were some game in the playoffs that were rigged but not this one, you can understand why he called those techs it wasn't like it was a random call
I really feel sorry 4 Timberwolves fans, I believe they deserve better, Their team hasn't been in the playoffs since 2004, and in this game they were competitive against the Spurs based on the most recent score prior to all those tech free-throws Ginobli shot and San Antonio probably won that game in a blow-out because of missed calls that should've went in favor of Minnesota
***** Yeah I'm aware of that, and I respect how well they play and how talented they are, however inexperience is their main disadvantage at the moment
Ken Mauer MUST BE RETIRED FROM NBA ip so facto!.... that man is not good for this game, he loves to make up fouls and help his favorite teams or players from like SPURS, CAVALIERS, LAKERS, MAYBE WARRIORS too.
The ref would've called a technical on the crowd if he could.
true these refs are real stupid
OMG!!! Your comment cracked me up!!!
He should have!
Yeah he can actually do that. It's used more for when a crowd interferes with the game but pretty sure this guy was close. This comment still cracked me up though
You can do that in the nfl technically but no coach/team are that pussy to use it
on an unrelated note, Ken Mauer's wife filed for divorce 3 hours before the game started
...and she got a technical foul for it :D
Nailed it.
And I see why.....
jacobisjonas lol yeah unrelated note. I like how you put it. This dude definitely had issues that night. Must have had a bet on the Spurs by 10.
Serves him right...HAHAHA!!! I wish him nothing but misery the rest of his useless existence. He struts around like "I'm a bad-ass ex con" but I suspect he's a corrupt bully and a cowardly punk. What does his resume say about the integrity (or lack thereof) of the NBA officiating? What a POS.
What's truly amazing here is 5 technical fouls were handed out and none of them were on Bill Laimbeer.
True. lol
He got lucky Crawford wussnt in the house
Imagine the ref started calling techs on the fans for booing calls 😭😂
1minishahin1 lmao
18,000+ free throws 😂
You get a T for this comment.
Y'all get a tech
And in COVID-19 Baseball 2020, with no fans, umpires can hear everything. An off-duty pitcher was in the stands and got tossed for what he thought were bad calls. (See Jomboy)
After Ken gives himself a T, making it 6 total; the other ref: "for what, Ken?"...Mauer: "giving too many technicals".
I just got T for laughing, but so did u for making fun of the ref
u get a tech,u get a tech,everybody gets a tech!!!
Donald Phipps thats chicago. guns everywhere
It's literally the Oprah Winfrey Show
That high pitch ring.
Drove me crazy.
“Ken Mauer just handed out 5 techs in record time!”
Joey Crawford: Hold my beer 🍺
U just got tossed for ur comment, ( whistle sound)
only if duncan laughed it would have been 6.
If Duncan was playing for the Wolves for sure.
pcorf hahaha
Tim Duncan has never laughed in his life. He always has this look on his face like he doesn't speak English and he's trying to interpret what you're saying
Sean Cunningham Watch how he got ejected by Joey Crawford
Classic
The NBA: Where the lead goes from 6 to 10 points without the time moving
Have you watched baseball before?
@@MircomFan Yes, I have watched baseball.
@@MircomFan Umpires are worse imo
@@SFO14 I think it’s incredible that you replied to someone 6 years after commenting
Hey Tim Duncan got a Technical for laughing while in bench...beat that!!!!!
Jesse Sanchez This beat that crap out of it
Jesse Sanchez Still can't beat the double tech DeMarcus Cousins & Rajon Rondo got for applauding at a ref last season..
PortPowerAZ ...yeah i just looked it up...didnt know...hahahaha....dumb shit....
Jesse Sanchez that's right, he was laughing at Crawford. Don't try and embarrass an official.
Refs comparing stories! I once gave Timmy a tech for laughing on the the bench "beat That"... OTHER REF says "I once gave kawhi a tech for accidentaly bumping into me after the game was over
You get a technical...and you get a technical!
Everybody gets a technical!!
Look under your seats....we're giving you another technical to give to a friend!
Intrepid Cornball sure buddy
Your wife gets one, the babysitter gets one and the dog too! The mailman got one and theres another one in your mailbox as well.
You get them by being a holes...
So you think the plsyrrs are wrong?. You are the problem...you and the punk a*& players
I wonder if the ref can assess a T on youtube viewers
The fact Rambis and Laimbeer were on the same coaching staff is hilarious to me.
ooooohhhh I bet somebody got a new whistle that just was dying to be broken un that day!!!!
lol
+Elise Fincher good one Elise
+Elise Fincher I agree!
Technicals done with hands, not whistle
+PabloJai JavierSeis I didn't know youtube commenters can become so butthurt so easily haha
they also missed fouls at the very end. wow. terrible refs.
+Allen Iverson might have been awesome. If their plan was to back SAS, they did a fantastic job. Tim Donaghy was the best at it.
+AG47 Fantasy joey crawford was also good at backing SAS i heard
+wong nigel have you seen the video of Crawford ejecting Tim Duncan for laughing?
CODPIMPS4210 that's the point
and hes still a ref.
sports refs place bets on games and theyre trying to fix the score.
Even as a Spurs fan I say this was bs. You should use technical fouls to prevent a situation from getting out of control, not because you're in a bad mood.
I don't want my team to win that way.
Has nothing to do with mood...its simple...player is an a**hole he gets a T...its 3rd grade simple....
if the ref is an a-hole, then the ref is an a-hole. and this ref was definitely an a-hole. is that simple enuf for ya?
@@dominicdinatale2079 Yet this is a rare occurrence (refs handing out T’s like candy). You can’t get a T for “being an asshole”, that’s a pretty subjective statement.
@@benwilson6559 yes you can get a t for being an a hole...obviously you hate refs
Kurt said "fuck you" at 1:17 😂
I was reading the same thing.
Spartans never die
Don't tread on me yeah...even i noticed though I am german... that coach has balls...
Was that Bill Laimbeer ? I love it, Kurt Rambus saying "Fuck You ! " to the Ref.
Yeah it was haha
Now Laimbeer is coaching a WNBA team. He did coach Detroit to like 3 titles in the WNBA.
Chiko was here Women's haha. Perfect job for Lamebeer
As if the announcer saying his name didn't give it away
SCREW IT! Hey you water bottle, YOU get a technical. While I'm at it, basketball, YOU get a technical for being in my hands!
How can some people still doubt some of these games are rigged....?? This video speaks for itself
I'm surprised they wouldn't call a tech on the crowds
Could you imagine the refs ejected the entire crowd!? That would be insane!
Marcel Ciarrocca if I was there I wouldn't leave because I payed for it and probably knock the referee out cold
Marcel Ciarrocca it has happened before, not often in pro sports, college and lower leagues or amateur leagues is mostly where.
+*ORD* they'd have to pry me out of my seat if they kick the whole crowd out of an event they paid for
mrbow50001 kinda not how it works, if the crowd gets cleared and you refuse to move they just get the cops to move you, or can the game and whatever the score is that's the result.
Lmao this ref got a big bet on the spurs?? What the hell.
The ref probably had money on the game.
Money on a Timber wolves game? lmao don't make me laugh.
R.Mariano money on the spurs to win...
you get a tech! & you get a tech & you get a tech EVERYBODY GETS TECHS!!!
Isn't this the ref that blew his whistle in melo ear😂😂
Yup
Jaylen Malone that's a technical
Coaches should have the ability to CHALLENGE foul calls, or lack thereof. They automatically review other things like goaltending and out of bounds, add fouls, but not an automatic review.
nahor88 I actually agree. It would be nice to challenge calls like you can in the NBA.
Based Dropout Bear you mean NFL* Budd?
John Moreta Yep. Thanks.

And we don't give out as many technicals as they do.
That's why him and Joey Crawford were the two worst refs in basketball
Is this the same guy who blew a whistle in Carmelo's ear?
yea lol
Griffin Burd and who Doc Rivets wanted to fight
when vegas has your number, they don't care how you get it done, just get it done...
Is it just me or does the video have a very high pitched noise?
your right, it does.
Scott Knight you mean "you're" right
sorry
Bubble Finn'nJake Henry Hill No he's right, I misused the term "your."
***** What?
That's what I call "Shut up and play the fucking game"
this ref is still around and still makes the worst calls he should be fired
You get a technical! You get a technical! Everybody gets a technical!
One thing I like about Ken Mauer? His slick ass haircut.
I was thinking that it seems like they've been grooming Ken Mauer to be Dick Bavetta's heir apparent as one of the league's go-to guys for fixing games. Looking at this, I think I was probably right.
He fixed the Portland/Houston game as well. Gave mysterious foul calls on Dwight!
Stan Lee
Game 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5?
Game 1 and 4! Both on Dwight, the NBA later apologize for calling the techs!
Stan Lee you don't honestly think the refs are to blame for houston getting put out, right? what the hell does the nba have to gain by 'fixing' the houston/portland series? your best player was thoroughly outplayed by wes matthews... if you're looking for reasons why you lost, start there.
p0rign01 money, bets.
Did Kurt Rambis say 'fuck you" at 1:17?
sure, he did,,
Yes haha
He sure did
yeah...he had money on the spurs!
No!!! Don't touch him that's a technical.
That rref look like shawn michaels
Best offense ever. 4 points without the clock moving
His brother is a baseball player in Minnesota Joe Mauer.. He probably wanted to let his brother no that he was in Minnesota that same day he was
+purelystellar0824 Actually cousin, but close enough.
"Rambis is livid!" Bruh he barely rose his voice lmao
Ken has been suspended from his reffing gig. He is now the spokesman for "Low T"! He's handing them shits out everywhere!
Darko Milicic played in this game
bill lambier and no one got closelined? 😂
When Bill Laimbeer is the calmest person on the team, you know you are out of control.
You know guys in all my years of watching Kurt Rambos 20 years of basketball I think he was by far one of the most agressive players to ever play the game. The guy was a true Rambo to play physical basketball with some of the best to ever play the game.

What's ironic is that Ken Mauer is Joe Mauer's cousin lol
I typically like Mauer, but those were some pretty bad calls. I guess refs can have off nights too
Snowball effect.
The NBA is rigged
u can't have a bad calling night
Thanks for the speedy, clearly explained response!
It's funny to me seeing Rambis and Laimbeer sharing the sideline, considering the battles they took part in. I bet they share some pretty nice stories
tryna cover that spread
he must have needed to cover thd spread...
loving the high pitched sound throughout this entire video.
yeah, it feels classic.
Thanks for the ear damage!! High pitch madness.
Yelling "fuck you!" once doesn't really seem like "livid" to me
Should be suspended for the remainder of season no pay fined and investigate if he is betting on games that he refs
raymond S yeah. he's been betting. he's been jailed.

I think that's more than 10 secs
Asher Padro Ten game seconds
I love this funny and cracking up 🤣
When the ref owes their bookie.
Darko should have been given technicals for even stepping on the court.
Damn
nba fans just need to boycott games untill their hire good refs. they will hire good ones once they realize they arent getting the money from the fans anymore
It feels like the NBA gives too much control to the refs, bad calls gives the player absolute ability to complain about that.
Somebody needs to let Mauer know that nobody, that's NOBODY, pays money to watch him officiate!
This is the NBA right here. Let's give the shitty teams the most awful calls so the better team like the Spurs can get the calls and win the game. Welcome to the NBA everybody!!
Isn't this one of the games that the ref got paid to fix?
Jen B this is a random ass reg season game lmao stop with the conspiracy theories, there were some game in the playoffs that were rigged but not this one, you can understand why he called those techs it wasn't like it was a random call
When billionaires bet there friend that the spurs gonna shit on timberwolves
yeah the spurs then didnt need anyone to fix games for them either lol
It's not really a conspiracy..it has definitely happened before
Edward Jimenez The ref that was rigging the game wasn't rigging it for the NBA, but was rigging it because he had ties to the mafia
Maur must've been doing some shopping at Best Buy that night cuz he was crazy Tech Happy. He was handing em' out like the experts.
And as it appears, a fan has just been given a tech
These refs should have to get together with the fans whose team they screwed over and have their faces crushed
probably a little harsh. even if they did it on purpose, face crushing is probably overboard :)
What year is this Pekovic,Love,Ellington,Wesley,Luke and Brewer is in this roster.

I remember when Rambis and Laimbeer were mortal enemies.😆
I think it's hilarious that they both coached together haha
and some others say the NBA is not Rigged?!
CallOfDutyGamer233
Well he does ref most of the important games, along with that other asshole
CallOfDutyGamer233 oh its more than 1 my friend
CallOfDutyGamer233 dumb af if you think sports are not rigged. it is business and entertainment first and foremost
Mj Klut thank you!
There was one ref who would fix games, but that was because he had ties to the mafia
What was the spread?
an ideal ref. good job.
U know Joe Crowder is so proud
A good % of the clearly rigged NBA games I've seen have had this guy in the crew
For some reason the random guy taking in the whole scene while drinking beer at 1:46 made me laugh...it was just so casual I guess...
Kurt Rambis and Bill Laimbeer on the same coaching staff. Holy mother of scrapping
Legends say he still calling...
NBA just rigged
Why was this on my recommended?
Lol i was watching twitch girl fails with auto play in my cp and got here lol
Jeffry Rogers you're gay that's why
Ref wouldn’t call Fouls on one team so to make it,up,he calls 5 techs on the other team. Makes sense.
I hate refs that abuse their power and call unnecessary calls. Like come on those tech weren't fudging techs
Does anyone hear ringing when this video plays?
yeah I thought I was the only one.
don't tell me that nba doesn't fix game...
I'm not saying you're wrong, but this is a rare occurrence. If they were fixing games wouldn't more games look like this?
+why-me?? ur not wrong but the spurs were gonna win this anyway....lol
How did Kurt Rambis and Bill Laimbeer coach together without having a celebrity boxing match for charity lmao
Ken says "everyone look under your seats, YOU ALL GET TECHNICALS!"
