He intentionally made contact with the crown of his head. It's absolutely a T.

Change the rules of the game for different times of the game? I never agree with that. He intentionally contacted a ref to intimidate. What's next? A light headbutt is ok as long as it's a one possession game and within ten seconds remaining? If so, put it in the rules. And the refs would not have changed the outcome of the game. D*ckhead Danny would have changed the outcome. The refs would enforce the behavior which is what they are paid to do.

stuff is called different at different times of the game, different situations of the game, and different stakes of a game. welcome to the real world...

and did you hear Karaban's interview where he said something to the effect of "that ref was different than the other two. you can talk to him. coach and him have a great relationship"

hurley knew that was in good fun and so did the ref...it's a non story
