Transcript

00:00We talked about the technicals that the Celtics faced yesterday

00:02and Wiggy brought up a great point when it comes to the refs

00:04and some of these calls, and it's not just a Celtics issue though,

00:07it's across the league when it comes to the refs,

00:10just not knowing what they're doing, what they're calling.

00:12It's bad.

00:14Eddie House, after the game yesterday, was asked about it

00:17and I thought he put it perfectly.

00:19Went on a little bit of a rant, here's what he had to say.

00:21They lost the game because of the refs.

00:23And this is the thing,

00:24nobody, this is what the referee's got to understand,

00:26and everybody has egos, they all do out there.

00:29The referee's got egos too.

00:30I've played in the league for 11 years

00:32and there was referees out there that did certain things

00:35that when they called a foul, they did,

00:37they were more animated when they made the call.

00:40They tee you up quickly.

00:43They don't want to hear anything that you got to say.

00:45But this is what the referee's got to understand.

00:47There's not one person in the building that came to see them

00:50unless they gave tickets to some work that they had.

00:52Unless it's somebody that they're seeing,

00:54their wife is there, their friend is there,

00:56somebody that they know.

00:57Nobody comes to see the referees.

01:00Get out of the way of the game.

01:01Do what you're supposed to do and that's just officiate.

01:04Don't make it about you.

01:05Your ego should be checked at the door when you coming through.

01:08And vice versa, there should be egos checked at the door from the players.

01:12But if you are doing something egregious that's wrong,

01:15just like how you could call a technical foul,

01:17you know what, how we get fined for getting texts,

01:20they should get fined for calling bogus texts.

01:23How about that?

01:25Perfectly.
