Most technical fouls aren't about one moment. They're a buildup.⁣
⁣
Scott Foster breaks it down here, and it's something I've believed for a long time. By the time a ref hits a player with a T, they've usually already had multiple conversations with that player throughout the game warning them to stop. Fans aren't in on those conversations, so when the technical finally comes, it looks arbitrary.⁣
⁣
It's not. The machine just ran out of quarters.⁣
⁣
Combo weighs in from the player side too, which is worth hearing. Context matters more than the outrage merchants online want to admit. #shorts
