That's not the point.

His point is the way that Goble spoke to him.

across the line of decorum.

And that's what that scene at the end was about.

I was like, you don't talk to me like that.

You can call whatever you're going to call, but you can't talk to me like that.

We've had this in the past.

When I worked for the Suns, we had a player, Zabian Dowdell, who had the referee call them a bitch.

And we're like, yo, regardless of what Zabian, whether he argued the call where he was kind of like a journeyman guy.

So is he relevant enough to use kind of Zazzle's terminology to argue the refs?

Maybe he was, maybe he wasn't.

But the point is, that does not allow for the refs to carry themselves with no decorum there.

And that's the part that this whole argument is about.

It's not about, oh, was that a jump ball?

No one cares.

That's just one of many calls that players argue about during the game.

That's correct.

That's his point.

It's not like, oh, it's not fair.

If I did it to you, he's not saying that.
