Paul George Completely Went Off On The Officials

During the 4th quarter of last night’s game between the Indiana Pacers and the Philadelphia 76ers, Paul George and Gerald Henderson both were ejected.

First, both got called with a technical after this play.

Then, Paul George threw an elbow. There wasn’t a call on this elbow, because the referees did not see it. Gerald Henderson, though, returned the favor and threw an elbow himself. Henderson got a flagrant 2 and George recieved his second technical of the day for his reaction. This led to both players being ejected.

After the game, Paul George completely went off on the officials.

“I mean, y’all know how I feel about the officials, and tonight I really have no faith in them. I’ve been warning them all night what he’s going to do, stuff he’s doing, and they allowed this sh*t to go on. He was throwing jabs, throwing punches at my stomach all night, and I didn’t retaliate until late in the game when they weren’t doing sh*t about it. So he pulled me down, I get a double tech for doing nothing. And then throw an elbow at my neck, I get another tech for nothing. So I really don’t have no respect, nothing is there for the officiating. Sh*tty officiating job…”

I guess there’s a $25,000 fine coming in for PG13.
