Can't imagine officiating games where my favorite team is playing. Hard to contain the feelings of excitement, especially during crucial moments. Kudos to these guys for being so professional.

@nickovillasor9096 2 года назад

and managing how to show no excitement in some amazing plays. example game winning at the buzzer

@Plague_Doc22 9 лет назад

Argubly the hardest job in the NBA that also gets ZERO respect. You'll always upset someone with a call. And if you've ever refed a game you'll know its really fucking hard.

@carryeveryday910 8 лет назад

I don't think the Refs care seeing as they make $250k+ a year to watch the best basketball players on earth play the game.

@codywarhawk7099 Год назад

He's been an awful ref so far in the NBA. The bum has at least one massive controversy to his name, and he stole Game 2 from Denver tonight in the Finals because of his questionable officiating. He should be fired by the league for fixing games.

@codywarhawk7099 Год назад

Did he have controversies too at your high school? Considering this little boy named Zarba has some serious controversies to his name already as an NBA ref, I wouldn't be shocked if he's done some ahit at your high school. Zarba is a little boy pretending to be a real man.

@swimfan752 2 года назад

@swimfan752 2 года назад

Refs are given a lot of leeway ( deservedly so ). If players make mistakes they get benched and honestly cut or can lose their entire career so quick. It’s a cutthroat league for players.

reffing in the NBA must be really tough. it happens so fast and there are so many things to look at at the same time. But I still think football (soccer) is more difficult to ref.

@itsjohnnn0971 8 лет назад

This is really late but I was looking thru comments and yes I believe this comment 100% soccer is one of the hardest jobs to ref people think it's easy until you are in our position and actrully have to officiate a game

@swimfan752 2 года назад

@@itsjohnnn0971 nobody thinks reffing any sport is easy. It’s obviously a difficult job regardless of the sport and there’s lots of pressure. Anyone who tells you otherwise is likely a troll

@codywarhawk7099 Год назад

He makes hundreds of thousands per year to officiate NBA games. I've seen how this fucking loser works his job. He's a bum who does things like point shave, and he outright rigs games if it benefits him somehow. He has no right being in the 2023 NBA Finals.

@princehalo4838 9 лет назад

Does that little box in the back of their pants control the shot clock? It seems like they press it everytime someone inbound the ball?

@markharris4853 9 лет назад

Controls the game clock. They have 2 microphones on their shirts which are linked to it. When they blow the whistle, the clock stops. They press the button on the box to start it again.

@mcgriddle4528 9 лет назад

@hgfxjnn 6 лет назад

One of the toughest jobs in the NBA, or any spots. I never been a ref, but I can imagine what they go through. Like hostility from the players, coaches, and fans. Omg! I even saw here on RU-vid a basketball ref got head-butted so bad... He needed facial reconstruction surgery. Then I remembered Nick van axle head-butted a NBA ref. And of course Rasheed Wallace who always throughout his career give refs trouble. Still holds the record for most technical fouls in a NBA career.

Zarba is the main reason why the NBA went and changed certain things after his stupid fucking ass made an awful call that determined a game's outcome. How could you defend this little boy that blatantly rigs games for his betting buddies?
