No one "old" should be a ref anywhere.
Old NBA players should be refs

excuses, excuses, being a doctor is a tough job too, dont mean im gonna be ok with you killing me in surgery cause of some dumb mistake. I aint gonna be like oh no problem when you cost me a title, besides its one thing to miss a call its another to blatantly cheat.
You are easily one of the worst posters on the internet.
You sound like someone who doesn't even play basketball competitively...and you obviously have never officiated anything.
Comparing a missed call in the NBA to a doctor killing someone in surgery is among the worst analogies you could have come up with.
If you have ever played basketball at ANY LEVEL...have you ever argued with someone whether something was a foul or not? Officiating at the NBA level is probably the hardest job in professional sports (not counting players).
The game moves incredibly fast, there is contact on EVERY possession and beyond that you've got half the league blatantly trying to trick you by diving to the court every time they feel the slightest contact.
I don't believe that the NBA refs are the best and there are plenty of them that take way to much pride in making themselves a part of the action. That doesn't change the fact that fans are CLUELESS as to how hard the sport is to officiate.

Stupid idea. Imagine D-Wade on the whistle, dude would blow the whistle every chance he gets smh. He thinks everythings a foul. shyt would be unbearable to watch
i dont see the difference, obviously its way more serious to take someones life but point is if you do a bad job, it means you cant handle it, if they actually held refs accountable they would get better, and thats assuming its not fixed which when we are talking NBA that is in question. Plus like in baseball weve seen tons of calls that everyone makes with the naked eye and the umps cant make it?
Yes ive argued calls but never have I thought in the park that i blatantly got screwed on purpose. Like even if I was sure the call was wrong I could see it was a tough call but in the NBA I see obvious calls all the time, how can anyone with a brain fall for Lebron a niggga built like a football player flopping like a fish? You have to be a moron or it has to be fixed
