Higgins, Sirmons, and Dailey.

If these conferences don't have their own "officials", why are they always involved with just 1 conference?

Absolutely despise Higgins, it's always about him. He wants everyone to pay attention to him, instead of the actual game. We'll be called for 35 fouls tonight.

If they start their ticky tack fouls and don't call it both ways, I'd love to see Huggins pull a Bobby Knight and toss a seat on the court. It would never happen but it would be one of the greatest things ever.

Cannot watch a game of basketball with these guys officiating. You have these 6-7 foot strong grown men being whistled for touching someone. It's pathetic how watered down basketball has become, soccer is a more physical sport than modern day basketball. But hey, at least we get more points via foul shooting contests.

Higgins always has a way to make himself part of the game when he doesn't need to be.

I think we win tonight, but you're right about those clowns.

I just hate them calling touch fouls against very strong grown men. Whistle, whistle, whistle, that's all it is these days.

To be honest though, if they call it tight then I'd be OK with that because we can run out 10 guys while OU cannot. If we hit our FT's, and our subs play large minutes, then we win because OU isn't as deep as we are.

In theory, true. In practice, false. How many times have we seen Buddy Hield push off? He's never called for it. Reminds me of MJ who did it on frequent basis, never whistled for it. Certain players get special treatment, it's a joke. It really is. And it's that way in every sport at every level. Unless you play for the Penguins, they are allowed to be murdered with no penalty.

Be honest. Your latest tag is a mix between "MountainEER" and "Herd Nation."

I know you love these new rules, you're like Jay Bilas. You want more points, want offense to have full control. I'm the opposite, I like defense. I like physical style of basketball. That's why I was a fan of the NBA in the 90s and enjoy watching videos of great teams in 80s but I rarely to never watch modern day NBA. If it's not for the 100 timeouts they have, it's blowing the whistle every time someone touches someone.

Golden State would get ran off the court by teams in the 80s and 90s. Charles Barkley is 100% right on that topic. Could you imagine Steph Curry going up against Michael Jordan or hell even a young Kobe Bryant, one of the few remaining players left that played physical but when he came into the league, it was physical. Kevin Garnett is another. So sad these guys are about to retire, last of the great physical basketball players. Now, it's all softies.

People complain about baseball games being too long? ****, try watching a 4th quarter of a NBA game when they use their 100 timeouts. I wish they'd go with 1 timeout like they do in NHL. Use it wisely. Let's stop the whistles and play some ball.
