We are diving into the heart of the NBA's current crisis, the referees. Focusing on the contentious relationship between players and referees, inflated egos and raging emotions. Also analyzing how the evolving rules of the game have disproportionately empowered offensive players. In today's game the referees often seem driven by emotion rather than objective judgment, leading to an excessive number of technical fouls and free throws that are disrupting the game's flow. How can the NBA fix this problem?

The refs have been caught fixing games. How the hell is there no disciplinary protocols for bad officiating?
Because the nba is sponsored by gambling apps. The refs are just doing what the nba told them which is fixing games for these gambling apps
Tell this to the NFL guys as well
There was gambling involved when it comes to the refs
Major sports organizations are partnering with sports betting companies. They don’t want transparency. Too much money involved, regardless of fan discontent.
Because it is call Sport Entertainment
The NBA has had an ref problem since early 2000's fast forward to 2024 and the problem is still very much there.
💯
The refs have been a problem since 2017-18 and Adam silver has done nothing to fix the fact that they have decided more games than not
Its getting out of control now. And everyone can see it.
Watch a Lakers game and realize it's all about favoritism, you almost had it though.
I was genuinely shocked when I watched multiple foul by foul breakdowns of various Laker games. It was tough for me to gauge how biased it appeared in real time. It's like they use a different rulebook for each team.
@@Joshua-fz5zxunfortunately it has been that way since David Stern became commissioner. It’s even worse now that the league’s favorite player Lebron plays for the Lakers
I hate that people say that the mid-range shot is "inefficient"
the lakers get the most call bc they’re last in the league in attempted 3s. they shoot closer to the basket more than anyone else. ofc they’re gonna get more fouls
@@thouxanbandtre538 have you seen that they are last or second to last in drives to the basket?
I feel like this sums up my main issues with the NBA perfectly. The officiating problems remind me an awful lot of the NHL and their trainwreck officials problem, only at least the NBA has some measures in place like the refs report of the final minute. The NHL doesn't let anyone ask the refs questions and if you speak out about the problems, you get fined more than you would if you injured someone on the ice, all while immature fans act like it's somehow okay to have that happen in the US' 12th choice sports league.
Adam silver destroyed the NBA
Jep and hes there at least to 2030
😭😭😭
The league needs a complete overhaul
Stats show refs disadvantage the pacers by over -450 FTs since start of last season.
Hilarious that lakers complain so much when they literally lead the ft differential to the positive
Refs or not, Lakers in 5.
@@nep6533 not many ppl so publicly express their mental disability. Good for you
Watch Sengun in the post last game against the Knicks. Score was like 101-103 I think. My guy took like ten steps. Ref called a foul on the defender. 😂
Great video. Only thing I'd add is the offense not being called for moving screens anymore. They literally grab defenders and move them away. Or run into them on purpose. This obviously heavily favors the offense. It's so bad at times, I can't even watch.
That's true. That's another one in the favor of the offense. Defense is being handicapped right now.
Yup I didn’t realize how bad it was during the warriors runs until last year ish. Just blatant cheating
Also charging, there is almost no reason to defend a dunk because you will almost always get a foul even if you plant perfectly
@@G5_Undisputedstop hating on 1 team, EVERY team uses Them, Even your favorite team
sports has a zebra problem regardless of what sport
totally agree, they should have some accountability
Sad you gotta keep hearing "ref you suck" or "bullshit " in unison.
If someone still has a Twitter account, this video should be posted to the NBA and Adam Silver's page. DAILY!
Ref be betting on the game as well so they are in control of what a player can get if that’s who they betting on or stopping a player when they go under (pause)
The only time a player should be ejected is when there is a fight or some unnecessary conduct. Nobody should ever be ejected for something they said, period. I don't care what they say to refs they should never be ejected for words.
I agree. Its just refs ego-tripping.
@@ShootersTouch30 I know a lot of professional sports bettors and they haven't bet NBA in over a decade because of refs controlling games. They tell me it's too hard to pick who the refs have money on. They stick to NCAA during basketball season.
@@butter7734 thats crazy
The simple solution is to have all refs take questions publicly after each game like the players do. But would require the NBA to do the horrendous thing of ACCOUNTABILITY.
This is what Adam Silver wants
311 subs? Bro... I'll be your 312th... you'll have 100k subs in no time with this quality of video
Thank you. I really appreciate it. More coming. 👊🏀
The league has a LeBron problem! He’s a dirty play, but never gets called for it. He also leads the league in flopping, as well as complaining. He will literally stop playing and, if he hasn’t thrown himself to the ground, will berate the refs while “running” up the court next to the ref. ANYONE else would get a T-not him.
Every player flops bt what the refs are doing to the game is pathetic asf
The JB foul in Indiana was just insane. so you can hit players on the head while they shoot now lol
Seriously, that was crazy.
See 2000 and 2002 WCF for Fixing
Really solid analyzis you got a New sub.
Only one way to change it… if fans stop watching n make it known the reasons why they stopped watching then the nba would have no choice but to change things. I doubt the fans will organize in that way though. If you don’t effect their bottom line nothing will happen.
yep, the bottom line is what matters.
Crazy how 10s of thousands of fans call out this same thing and the NBA doesn't listen but they pamper these millionaires who play a *game* for a living and give em everything they ask for
They should reduce the ejection rule to only when truly necessary. A lot of these ejections are over words
exactly 💯
best video about the modern game on RUclips.
Thank you. Appreciate it.
This is amazing content! Great work! subd
NBA refs is the reason I stopped watching the NBA
Good video! Very high quality,especially for your subscriber amount. You can add one to that 😉
Thank you! Appreciate you. More coming 👊🏀
Stephen Curry is the most infamous for not getting calls. His free throw numbers should be way higher than what stats say to be real
Well made video man. I agreed with everything you said.
I've been watching the NBA for 40 years. It's to the point that I would think it better if they just came out and said that they were scripted just like the WWE. It definitely didn't hurt their brand.
Great video and presentation! Your channel is gonna be big
Thank you. I appreciate it! 👊🏀
At least they can correct the obvious wrong calls on the spot. Too many times the refs refused to correct a 100% wrong call even when they know they made a huge mistake immediately after the call.
The nba has lost its credibility… you will never find a sport in the rest of world with this much controversy and yet to keep going…. Americans…
I love Mike brown and darko
It‘s not a problem. They do what is being told them to do.
Punish some players, for various reasons (non-US Jokic, non-Nike Curry), helping Lebron and/or the Lakers.
Yep, its all business at the end of the day.
Refs remind me of cops that just be throwing tamtrums or be rude/mad for no reason. Or judge you because of others. Cant even ask em a question
Bro the NBA know what they doing it’s a constant circle of blame when it’s literally sports entertainment itself wake up
the end of the day its all a business
This video context , work , knowledge about the NBA league is unfortunately on point. Keep the good work on being vocal!
Thanks, I appreciate it. 👊🏀
just watching a lakers game hurts my soul
All they need to do is literally bring back hand checks thats it .
Its a book Called Million Dollar Slaves... worth the read.
thanks, Ill check it out 👊🏀
Praying on the nba downfall if they keep the game like this 🙏🏿
Bruh if this goes on im not gonna watch nba anymore
Sports betting is getting out of hand
It gets better in the playoffs because it's harder for the refs to have a clear cut favorite to give the calls...the bad teams lose so Luka v embidd (example) the calls cancel out...thats when players start getting technicals and scoring goes way down...on a typical night any of the star players will be heavily favored to get every call
Yes, true. It gets better in the playoffs. They also just let players play through in the playoffs.
Great video my friend!
Thanks, I appreciate it.
Agreed. I noticed how better the players are all around and people keep saying they arent playing defence, when they are. One thing i always notice is that, players nowadays carry and travel much more and get away with it.
Good video just subbed
Appreciate it!👊🏀
If the Officials call Basketball Fouls and Violations and clean up the Flopping and let the Defender play defense. Are the NBA needs to start playing FIBA rules
Players bitch about everything. The NBA is not really a sport, it is a reality TV show.
I think that they sometimes some of the foul calls are ridiculous. Like rockets playing thunder Sunday there they fouled chet during a rebound to favor Sangoon when Sangoon was practically jumping on Chet.
If NBA remove handcheck foul, it will balace the offence. How can you defend if you cant do physical defence. Basketball is contact sport. If you remove the CONTACT then the result is pretty obvious. High volume scoring.
💯
There is no problem, they do exactly what the league tells them to do.
So the League tells them to make bad calls?
its all business at the end of the day
Very well done video!
Thank you! I really appreciate it. More coming. 👊🏀
We should let the players fight the refs and see how many bad calls they make afterwards
🤣🤣
I agree they need to chill on the techs for showing emotion & passion, to me that was always bullshit. Every other league can do it but the NBA. Hockey you can throw hands & not get a season suspension. Flagrant foul rules slowly fucked it up too. They need to let the defense play defense , not so much the hand check but just let them play so called playoff basketball every game. Where you let them get to it.
💯
The refs egos are bigger than any of the players
💯
So lebron is gonna become a ref. The only way it could get bigger. 🤣🤣
@@laz0rama 🤣😆
They also stopped calling carrying or traveling at all, there were countless clips in this very video of modern players doing both with no call. The NBA game in general is trash now, not fun to watch at all.
Also imagine thinking in Jordan’s era scoring was harder when zones and double teams weren’t allowed lmao the era of isolation 1 vs 1 basketball 😂 and more points today couldn’t possibly be because the talent pool is vastly greater. Clown.
That's literally exactly what he said.
Did you watch the whole video?
I think alot fault does fall on referee for good reason but I think alot fault should fall in Adam Silvers lap too especially over correcting the game by adding new rules every year now there's too many rules refs can't keep up with the growing rule book
Euro leauge has fix this problem
In video games, in most cases the turtling/defending player has the advantage.
In crisis? Yeah, boring as hell. Dunk, 3-pointer, dunk, 3-pointer, dunk, 3-pointer, dunk, 3-pointer. And now a 7'4' phenom. I'd rather watch Caitlin and Paige all day long.
There’s a ref that has help Chris Paul ringless. There’s a visual on it
Scott foster?
Maybe the league should pay refs more or ban refs from being able to gamble while working for the league especially with gambling on sports legal now
The video starts at 4:00. He just repeats and rambles before that.
Time is the most valuable ressource in the world, thanks for helping me not wasting mine !
Everytime I hear "evolving landscape" I just know this was a chat gpt script
Why cant nba refs be like premier league refs
I miss Earl Strom.
They need to have a point system where to many bad calls gets you kicked out of the league...have a probationary period...to remedy the situation have them watch videos of games and determine what a foul is and ain't...or maybe just have to refs instead of 3 ....because this is the worst basketball iv ever seen...
Bro hanging on dunking is not a technical tf these refs are thinking they want to get the player injured for an unsafe landing after dunking idiot refs
I know its ridiculous. It's gotten so bad. Its super dangerous
euro leauge allowed more harder plays
the nba has become unwatchable
Why no one is watching this!
Because 30 new channels keep popping up every month
Appreciate you watching. Thank you. More coming! 👊🏀
if defense is so bad how the HELL are the timberwolves so good right now???
Cause great defense often carries teams to championships no matter what. Top 3 defending teams are all contenders when healthy: T-Wolves, Cavs, and Knicks. Top 3 offensive teams (Pacers, Bucks, and Hawks), much more mixed results.
Nba has a ref AND player problem smh
Vegas Baby!!
💯
Embiid = 12 free throws a game
Jokic = 5.5 per game
literally the only stat you need to know to know the league is rigged
wow its almost like they have different play styles...
@@jamesray7684 yeah, Jokic takes fewer 3s and scores more of his points in the paint. if anything, his playstyle should translate to more free throws.
after every game, Jokic's arms look like they were attacked by racoons. yet somehow he only gets to the line 5 times a game? gimme a break dude. watch any Embiid game and honestly ask yourself "would Jokic have gotten that call?"
@@uberneanderthalyep.
First off Jokic passes twice as much as Embiid so there's that. Second Embiid drives to the rim like a guard while also having post moves which at 7ft tall is unguardable. Jokic game is based mostly on post ups and 3's which does translate to a lot of fouls. Watch both of them play and stop being biased and you'll realize Embiid blowing by defenders is why he gets to the line so much, while Joker is just a smart paint bully@@uberneanderthal
Even the refs are soft now lol
Or do they have a bet on the game?
They fixing every game that’s all MJ dad got killed because he didn’t rig the game
it is for entertainment purpose only...BETTING.
not a sport...just like football.
bought and sold.
In the words of magic Johnson if you go near MJ it's a foul
They have small pee pees and they are mad about it.
"Players are more skilled than ever" if you consider a fancier handle and 3pt chucking "skill" you don't know basketball. Kobe said it before, the AAU has you idiots thinking selfish flashy basketball makes someone good at the sport.
One thing is, what sorta weasel wants to be a ref anyway. Only losers. Same w mlb refs. Its one way,for life nobodies, get to have some power for once
The nba doesn't have a ref problem...they are trained and told to officiate how they do
yep, all business at the end of the day
I don’t know, that doesn’t really explain the horrible inconsistency. What is silver telling refs “you gotta call more inconsistently” ?
the reffs R rigging games badly
Why do you hate the word “fewer”
Leave him be
Wait the the average shooting percentage is better now then back in the day 😂 but they better then the players of today 😂 man I pretty sure they were taking more closer shots the. 😂
The refs are fixed ; the draft is fixed. I saw a lot of bulls; cavs and Lakers games in this video lol 😂 hummm.
A ton of blame lies with the players. They aren't more skilled. This era sucks. Product is trash. Refs are only part of the problem
?? what😂 you can’t blame the player for adapting and learning the best way to win. ever heard of don’t hate the player hate the game?
@@xxWinterSpacexx uh no. The players have terrible attitudes. They and their players association are big reasons why the NBA is garbage now. Imagine making millions of dollars, only having to work 65 days a year, and you STILL complain about it constantly. They're lazy...entitled... arrogant. They have no respect for the game or what came before. So yeah. They deserve a ton of the blame.
There is actually such a really simple way to fix the problem. Have the Refs hold a press conference after every game. Problem solved.
Foul disparity is new? I remember watch kobe era laker playoff games
Every player complains about not getting a foul call. They chirp at the refs the whole fricken game. If I were a ref, I would get tired of the player not keeping his mouth shut!! So blowing a whistle or not is a way of "getting back" at the player. I.m not saying its right, but its how I look at it in my pov.
Yes exactly, that's what I was pointing out. Its become a battle of the egos, but that's not what fans want. We want to see the players play.
Two and a half minutes into this video, and all I'm hearing are unsupported allegations. Delete this and try again.
yes the reffs R terrible
Free throws attempted have been on a 4-decade DECLINE, so your premise is incorrect.
Free throws have been on the decline for decades now. The four lowest-foul seasons on record are also the four most recent seasons. Adjusted for pace, there are 20 percent fewer free throw attempts in the 2020s than there were in the 1980s and 1990s.
Read "Does the NBA Have A Free Throw Problem" written by Zach Kram in the Ringer, dated Dec 28, 2023.
Your presentation is based on a lot of nothing, just impressions that you have picked up here and there. Did you do any research before you made this video?
Did you watch the whole video? I actually used a graph from that exact article from The Ringer. Around (8:16) Maybe I wasn't clear there but I was trying to present the nuance and how it seems like its been more now, but its actually less. I was talking about a few different issues (refs, egos, techs, defense, offense....) Maybe it was too many points together and wasn't explained clearly.
@@ShootersTouch30 But you cite the study and come to the OPPOSITE conclusion There is a SLIGHT uptick this year. But the trend is down. And your title says that there is a ref problem??? This is the issue. This perpetuation of the myth that the refs are bad. They are not. And you say that there are an excessive number of FTS and technicals and provide a bunch of anecdotal evidence to show what exactly? That the flow of the game is affected? Yet scoring is way up.
@@milart12 Like I said earlier, the video talks about a few different points all together. Refs calling more techs not allowing players to play because of emotions. And all the bad inconsistent foul calls this season. And cheating refs. And skewed offense vs defense dynamics. And the free throw attempts trend looking one way but is actually another. Maybe its too many different points bunched together but I do think they all affect each other. Anyways I'll try to be more clear next time. 🤝
@@ShootersTouch30 No need to apologize I'm a referee and I don't like the criticism of referees; I do not think that is fact/data based. Other posters here seem to love it. Just one opinion.
And now another half baked RUclips video. Remember, those who know never have to speak, those who don't know have to present like peacocks when they show their tail feathers. The current players are not more talented at all, they are just allowed to score at will because the defense gets a foul just by breathing on the offense. Hell put any average Joe on the court with these rules and you will get 20 points easily from said average Joe. Free throws are a direct product of how corrupt and crooked the league is now. You really think the Lakers beat the Warriors by one point in that one game before the All Star break? Returning from the break, the Warriors basically deleted the Lakers. You have no idea what you are even talking about while trying to address the ref problem. Just because Google allows anyone to have a channel and post any content within community guidelines doesn't mean you should be posting anything related to the NBA or the sport of basketball period. 🤦
Did you watch the whole video? I talked about the rule bias for the offense right now. And the corruption with the refs.
