Luka Doncic was ejected after picking up a second technical foul against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Tuesday night, despite some pretty convincing evidence that he was swearing at a verbose fan and not a member of the officiating crew. This seems pretty unfair but it's also worth pointing out that Doncic picked up his first tech of the night by swearing at said official, so there's reasonable cause for confusion.
After a night and early morning filled with some pretty strong takes about the grave injustice of it all, ESPN NBA insider Brian Windhorst hopped on Get Up and said some clear-headed things that other people don't want to hear. Essentially, yeah, that was a miscarriage of justice but Doncic bears some blame for doing the very thing he was assumed to have been doing already in the game. Which can happen when a player provides as much real-time feedback to officials as Doncic helpfully supplies.
