Season starts tonight with Knicks and Celtics followed by Lakers and TWolves.

Will history be made early in the 2nd game?

Now Vanderbilt gets a technical for blocking a shot and mocking Caruso

Fix completely in for OKC

Throwing Luka out here is absolute officiating malpractice.

He was barking at a fan after a made basket.

Just truly outrageous.

Refs completely ruined what was looking like a great game. Lakers need to get LeBron and Reaves out for tomorrow now.

Is there a thinner skinned fat man in this league?! Imagine letting a fan get that into your head that you feel the need to trash talk him like he’s the one guarding you.

God help the NBA if it is.

Yes, Draymond. Who can do whatever he wants on court whenever he wants and has done for over a decade.

OKC knows that wasn’t a legit win and that’s even more satisfying than actually winning again. Luka still owns them.

I asked if Price believed the official, J.T. Orr, thought what Doncic said was aimed at him: “That could possibly be. And that’s probably why he picked up that technical, to be quite honest." https://t.co/WpjDOgQKg6

The OKC Thunder fan Jeremy Price, who called himself "a.k.a. The Courtside Tattoo Dude," said he engaged in trash talk with Luka Doncic before: "Absolutely. Last season, matter of fact, when he was a Maverick in the playoffs. But all within the game."

That call is so bad and then he was such an recalcitrant jackass about it -- I wouldn't mind a bit if that was effectively the end of his NBA officiating career.

That's just very obviously someone that thinks the game is about him.

The game meant dick (and the Lakers shouldn't have even tried to win it) so I don't really care about the 'what' of it. But the how is pretty ****ing egregious.

I agree. Let JT Orr ref some G-league games.

How is the ref supposed to know? Luka is one of the biggest bitches in the NBA and he yaps all the time. Ref is waltzing down the court and Luka is looking directly his way talking shit.

This is a LeBron/Lakers/OKC thread. Ain’t no one got time for that tumble.

Looked rough as dude went limp as his head hit the floor. Hope he recovers without a serious injury. I didn’t see him raise his hand as he was being carted off the court.

Those long TD passes from Luka will extend LeBron's career.
