The NBA did a major disservice to every fan who showed up to the Fiserv Forum on Wednesday to watch Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Bucks play against the Pistons. They have NBA officials Scott Twardoski and Rodney Mott to blame for that.
Antetokounmpo was ejected in the third quarter of the Bucks’ 120-118 win after he stared down Isaiah Stewart following a dunk. Giannis didn’t appear to say anything to Stewart, but the officials still hit the Bucks star with a second technical and automatic ejection.
When Giannis was in disbelief over the call, he briefly took a seat next to a fan courtside. And that fan happened to film the whole thing from just an incredible perspective.
"Come get me!"

We could hear as Giannis shouted back at the refs, “Come get me!”
Really, what a video. Giannis had every right to be upset, and thank you to that fan for posting the footage.
