i was just wondering what people think are the worst foul calls they have ever seen.
The worst 1 was in my grand final last night, where a player got called for an unsportsmanlike foul for playing denial defense in the post.

I once got an unsportsmanlike foul for a clean block on a layup on the break.
I als once got a tech foul for saying Jesus after i threw a pass to an imaginary friend on the sideline.
They have to be tough to beat.
lol one of my mates has got a tech in church basketball for saying "good pass matty" to one of his team mates. No joke, everyone was stunned, couldnt even laugh was so stunned at what happened.

Bob - it is people like you that have pulled the game down - and have destroyed any support for referees.
You left out the fact the player had a hand full of his opponenets singlet holding him - an auto unsportsman like foul.
perhaps if your team learned to shoot at a percentage higher than 5 you might have won.
know the rules - you would make a good american attorney

Maybe we need to add a topic called "dumb things players have done" to square the ledger.
I have a whole heaps of those, especially with me as the star. hmmm, let me think, Ron Artest would qualify, so would Stephon Jackson.

heard Tigers could not hit side of barn with their shots
apparently their coach was trying to be a referee and forget to teach the players the basics of putting the ball in the hoop

Larry Senstock once asked a ref if you could get a foul for what you are thinking. The ref said no, so Larry said "I think you're a ****".

There was a young player from Forestville (now palying ABA) that received a Tech for saying to the referee:
"All these people watching this game think you are a real pr*ck, but I don't agree with them!"
