OKay, lets see where to disagree on these new calls..
Air punches any where on the court? So players do this to show excitement on a good play, so how would you call a tech for that on a bad play? Pierce would have been ejected for that knockout of that referee if it was this year
Raising arms "incredulously" or hitting their arm to argue a foul? So every player not named DWADE,LEBRON, and KOBE will get hit with this call
Running directly at an official to argue a call? GREAT ADDITION! This one I fully support since I wanted to donkey kick LeBron every time he argued a call by doing this and making that ugly cry baby face
Excessive inquiries about a call, even in a civilized tone. I am 50/50 on this one b/c I do think that arguing a call 2 or more plays ago is just whining(KOBE/LEBRON)
Player makes gestures like "come on"? Eh, I could see where this could get old b/c it sometimes sounds like a whiny player
when they don't get a call, yell about, and run back down the court rolling their eyes(oh yea LEBRON)
My Biggest complaint about all this is they want player to never disagree calls and show no negative emotions, but stay competitive. The whole Tim Donaghe situation wasn't that long ago, and some calls are very obvious. Thats also why they should allow refs to argue and change calls more b/c 2 refs might see something the 1st one didn't. MORE REPLAYS PLEASE.
I see the positive goal to this of making this sport an obvious Sportsman like model, but there's more stuff that has to go. How many times in a game does a player last touch the ball out of bounds, and admits to it, rather than pointing at the other team? NEVER
