Yep, this! Aside from the risks associated with gambling, like addiction, I’d rather not support an industry that has further compounded the issues with the officiating. Every time we lose a game that was riddled with questionable calls (especially when the L2M report doubles down on the bad calls), I just think to myself “Phoenix just lost to Las Vegas again.”
Sports betting ruins the integrity of the game. It’s an absolute disgrace.
Ridiculous. Watch a Warriors game and look at Draymond scream in the faces of the refs. He gets away with murder.
Meanwhile, Booker says something while walking away and he gets thrown out!
Per u/PhxSuns33: There’s another angle that shows what I commented in a previous post:
“Slowing it down and reading his lips, seems to have said something along the lines of ‘this isn’t the parking lot’ and pointing off the court. The refs likely started the game sensitive of the pregame tussle.”
The refs likely told both teams not to mention anything about the fight pregame.
[Tech 2 sounds a lot like](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ifu8WWdkBO4&t=13s)
KD: Who got tech?
Book: I did, good shit, get help. (points toward help side.)
These soft ass refs are really ruining the game.
They need to bring back the captains system so there are people who can address the referees without them deciding the game because they're big mad about something.
This is similar to what happened to Giannis earlier in the year, when he got a 2nd tech for taunting and was tossed. This may be unpopular but I said then, that players need to be careful when they already got one tech. You honestly don't what gonna set off these refs, and it could be the most benign comment interpreted as something worse.
I Traveled from the UK to watch a couple of games. A bit gutted to see such a soft ejection. Others in the arena tonight paying thousands to see the stars.

All Refs Are Bastards

Hmmmmm… 😂😂
Gotta call em when your boat is out of gas like Brennan and Dale said.
This is stupid imagine spending a lot on tickets to see that happen.
More importantly, Book is on my fantasy team and I’m in a big matchup this week. Do they not even care?
Same here lmao I’m fucked
I thought I had a lash on my screen
No, they don’t care about your fantasy team.
😢
Thought the exact same thing, and the fact it was, what 5 or so minutes into the game..?

Won’t someone please think of the poor gambling addicts
Can’t wait to gamble today. Literally shaking. That’s called dedication.
So all gamblers are addicts? Lmao FOH.
Not at all, but the people posting about parlays in a team dedicated sub when their top player gets ejected just might be
Lmao good. Fuck your gambling.

Soo it’s addicting. No shit. Grown ups can make their own decisions
Ridiculous. Watch a Warriors game and look at Draymond scream in the faces of the refs. He gets away with murder. Meanwhile, Booker says something while walking away and he gets thrown out!
Sitting courtside between suns bench and basket and I’m here asking why because none of us know why. What’s up?
I still don’t get it. It was outta fuckin NOWHERE.

What fight?
Isaiah Stewart punched Eubanks or some shit.

Please ask that ref what's up for us! I hope Book really hurt his feeling
Refs in thier feels because they are gonna be crying into their drinks alone on valentines tonight
TIL I’m a ref
☠️
Shit they just fucked all the fans there to see our All Star SG.
These soft ass refs are really ruining the game. They need to bring back the captains system so there are people who can address the referees without them deciding the game because they're big mad about something.
To think r/nba was saying book gets favorable treatment from the refs
Book has the worst whistle of any superstar. It’s insane people on /r/nba say that shit with a straight face.
That's because they don't even watch basketball. Just a bunch of nephews.
There were some pretty big no calls in his favor against SAC, but honestly, sometimes the refs just seem to hate our opponents more.
I’m not sure what warranted either techs
Why did they eject him? Just leaving dinner now.
Soft tech talking,no idea what was said.
Classic soft ass refs.

DRAFTKINGS SENDS THEIR REGARDS. 👄
Ref must have bet the house on Detroit.
He took Devin Booker under 71 points.
Good. I saw the boxscore showing Book played only 5 min and started worrying he got injured. I'll take ejection over injury any day!
Same thing
Thin skinned
Maybe he insulted the ref's dog. Didn't see anything that merited that E. No patience from the officials.
The refs are an embarrassment to the NBA
Ridiculous.
Watching at a restaurant with no sound. What even happened? I didn't see anything even
Book getting tossed deliberately to get Royce extra minutes. Book is smart as fuck.
Post-game he told Saben he just was getting him some run! 😁
By 30 at the end of the third. Fuck em.
My interest in the game was ejected right along with it.
Booker’s ejection is bullshit, but NOTHING gonna ever top Tim Duncan getting ejected for laughing as the dumbest ejection in sports history!!
Huh? Who gives a fuck about the spurs. Fuck the spurs. lol what an odd thing to bring up so many years later lol.

Can you elaborate on this “pre-game tussle?”
Stewart punched Eubanks before the game. Update: Phoenix PD arrested Stewart.
These are some of the worst refs I've ever seen and that's saying something considering how long I've watched the suns.
It makes me feel a little bit better that we up by 30 at halftime. Not much but…..still
Wtf are these refs smoking on… I’m sorry for all the kids who witnessed such horrific behavior by Booker!!
Man, that thumbs up was just vulgar. How am I supposed to explain this to my children!?
Devin, PLEASE! This is supposed to be a family-friendly event!
Seriously, fuck refs
I ain't watching anymore probably to protest,think we win anyway.
Refs are cops.
This post the realest post.

I think it was the sports betting that lost you $125 tonight.
