Probably a lot of us have seen the clip of him pulling his team off the court after he got a technical for protesting a foul call. It was a semifinal game of a tournament, and his team was leading by nine; so his team forfeited the game and a chance at the championship.
The play which finished things looked like a jump ball, but from the ref's angle, it wasn't necessarily a terrible call.

Question: Does anyone know whether his claim of consistently bad/biased calls was remotely legit?
Almost everyone agrees that pulling his team off the court was a loser move.

Up 9 late, he should take his T and STFU. Let the kids get the win and advance.
He's among the biggest fuckheads I've seen in the public eye.
And for minimum 41 games a year, his son will hear it on the court from the fans...every...night
If ESPN focused on actual sports and analysis for 10% of the time they focus on this clown maybe they wouldn't be circling the drain as a network.
What a POS. This man should not be in 50 miles radius of a youth basketball game besides coaching.
He is the Joe Jackson of basketball, exploiting his kids for his own personal gain.
Fuck him
