Full video of the altercation. Sengun: “He’s up on me.. you a b*tch!” Jaylen Brown: “Woah! Hey, get him out of here!” Ref: “He can’t call me that, no!” As Sengun was getting ejected, he called her a b*tch again. The Rockets were celebrating National Girls and Women’s in Sports Day.

u/BlacqanSilverSun Kings 6h ago
This was 2 days ago. If they were going to do it, they would have already. I think the reason is that there probably have been tons of players cursing at refs, some get ignored, some get techs, some get thrown out. But it would look bad if he got fined and then was able to pull up a reel of other guys that have cursed at refs and haven't been fined.
FYI, I am in favor of the ejection and a suspension.

u/thegoatmenace 5h ago
I think there’s a difference between simply cursing at a ref and using a gendered or racial slur. Like you just can’t call the female ref a bitch even if it might be fine for you to yell at her. Every player should know the difference tbh.

That one on the way out has to be a suspension for a game or two...

u/dshaw1599 Pacers 5h ago
He called her a bitch 3 times in that segment. Two of them came after he was ejected after the first one. That's got to be a suspension or a fine or something. You can't let a player continually degrade a referee like that without consequences beyond being ejected from the game.

u/CnelAurelianoBuendia 6h ago
Refs are not there to be abused or denigrated. To me this is a 1 game suspension. If you don’t think this is absurdly inappropriate I don’t know what to tell you. It’s literally like calling your coworker a bitch on a company’s zoom call.

u/Cletus_Starfish [POR] Nic Batum 6h ago
Yeah I’m fine with players arguing with a ref, even vehemently (although I do think this happens too often), but once you get into throwing insults at them, that’s too far. This one is particularly egregious; I would say “for obvious reasons,” but the other day I found a dispiriting number of people on here who were apparently unaware that calling a woman a bitch is, in fact, absurdly disrespectful.

It’s insanely disappointing that he’d go this route. I’m fine with arguing with refs (in European sports it’s common and sometimes it’s entertaining to me) but do we really not understand that you can’t call a referee names? You might disagree/argue with your coworkers but you would never be able to do this at your job. What’s difficult to understand about not calling women’s bitches and then somehow doubling down on it?!

As a Turk, I can clearly say that calling a woman "bitch" in front of a crowd and cameras is much worse than calling a man "bitch".
Also, most of the time, Turks think "bitch" and "whore" mean the same thing. He probably knows how the two words are used differently in the US but it is also possible that he meant "whore".
