I think Stern is trying to avoid the audience having a perception of the NBA as a street league. For a professional sport that's overwhelmingly () black, they still need to retain that white audience. The NFL has too many Caucasians for Goodell to ever have to worry about that stigma

you can get flagged for taunting in the nfl , but you don't see too often. NBA is unwatchable at times, getting T'd up for showing any emotional response is bullshyt.

There are also helmets on , so it's harder to tell



Also there is 22 people out there so it's harder to focus on individuals

It's also part of the game, take the Super Bowl for instance this year, like 3 people should have been ejected where they had that brawl but they kept right on playing and no one cared

Yeah but that's for things that they do. I don't recall seeing a NFL player get a flag for something that he said. True enough a lot of that can be obscured by the helmet. The coaches go completely fukkin HAM and I never see them get penalized.

that tech on ezeli..

That shyt is only done because the league is predominantly black......

It's Stern's way is appeasing white fans who hate seeing black males act "uppity".

Yea those are more so actions. NFL players be helmet to helmet pulling on facemasks after every other play and they just push em apart then go the next play. If a defensive player bodies a player he will look over him and talk ish. In Basketball if you do anything but jog back down court you penalized.

In baseball the catchers stay talking trash to battlers and the ump be right there and they overlook it. Basemen do the same thing all the time too.

Ticky Tack Fouls Are One Thing

But Whats Regarded As A Flagrant And A Tech Now A Days Is Ridiculous

 

[Mic-Nificent]

Dudes get techs for bouncing the ball too hard...........think about that for a sec.....
