Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Full report confirms this. When asked why was Luca assessed
- 0:04Speaker 1: that first technical foul? He directed profanity at a game official.
- 0:08Speaker 1: Why was he assessed the second one? He looked directly
- 0:11Speaker 1: at an official and used vulgar language. So that was
- 0:14Speaker 1: the second one. But you can see from that baseline
- 0:17Speaker 1: angle that it just the fan was directly behind the ref.
- 0:22Speaker 1: The ref took me cursing at him as the technical foul.
- 0:26Speaker 2: Luca is known to.
- 0:28Speaker 1: You saw it first hand when you sat court side
- 0:30Speaker 1: for the MAVs left.
- 0:31Speaker 2: Luca is known to. I don't want to use word
- 0:35Speaker 2: complaint because he has a lot of time. Let's the
- 0:38Speaker 2: rest do the best. They that, but you can't talk
- 0:42Speaker 2: to a ref after every player. So was he talking
- 0:45Speaker 2: to a ref f We don't know, but because he
- 0:48Speaker 2: has a history of always looking back and talking to
- 0:51Speaker 2: a reff.
- 0:51Speaker 3: And they probably have gone back and forth earlier. It's
- 0:54Speaker 3: where he'd already had enough, so he was waiting.
- 0:56Speaker 1: But you were at that MAVs playoff game when a
- 0:58Speaker 1: fan jump started him. This is something he's done a lot.
- 1:01Speaker 2: I blame Luca for this because we need this game.
- 1:04Speaker 2: You already got one tech leave it alone. You can
- 1:08Speaker 2: look at the fan and smile and do all that,
- 1:11Speaker 2: but we need you in this game. We don't want
- 1:14Speaker 2: to mess around be number eight. We don't want to
- 1:16Speaker 2: mess around and be in the playing series. But again, Lucas,
- 1:18Speaker 2: all of complaining and talking to the referees, was he
- 1:21Speaker 2: talking to a referees talking to a fan doesn't matter
- 1:23Speaker 2: if you look at a ref and you're talking them
- 1:25Speaker 2: through the whole game, sixty games, seventy games. When you
- 1:28Speaker 2: look at him and go like this, he probably thought
- 1:31Speaker 2: he was saying something to minute. But Lucas to be
- 1:33Speaker 2: more careful in that situation.
- 1:36Speaker 1: Right, I just think that see looka finished the good
- 1:42Speaker 1: But yeah, but look at carey.
- 1:43Speaker 3: With that being said, in the playoffs, when things are heightened,
- 1:47Speaker 3: more intense, a lot of emotions, egos, the whole fans
- 1:51Speaker 3: are going to now continue to do that, to egg
- 1:55Speaker 3: him on and try to provoke him. So, like you said,
- 1:58Speaker 3: I need you to do what you do, not out
- 2:00Speaker 3: on the court, and when you get a moment, then't
- 2:04Speaker 3: handle it or just leave it alone.
- 2:05Speaker 2: Does he get filed and does he get hit a lot? Yes,
- 2:08Speaker 2: but so does a lot of other players.
- 2:10Speaker 4: Told me one time, go one two, back to one,
- 2:14Speaker 4: I'm just wondering, is it did it?
- 2:16Speaker 2: Just hold on, I was trying to protect my queen.
- 2:25Speaker 4: It has been one to two back to what But what
- 2:30Speaker 4: I wanted to say is I agree with you. However, however,
- 2:33Speaker 4: people aren't going to change. That's Luca. That's the way
- 2:36Speaker 4: he gets fired up. Like that's how it is. So
- 2:38Speaker 4: I think you have to take the good with what
- 2:41Speaker 4: comes from him dropping forty because a fan is pissing
- 2:44Speaker 4: him off, versus him getting kicked out of the.
- 2:47Speaker 3: Game the organization or the referees.
- 2:49Speaker 4: Because I don't think Luca's going to ever change. Do
- 2:52Speaker 4: you think that he is going to say I'm not
- 2:54Speaker 4: going to talk to the rest anymore. No, Like this
- 2:57Speaker 4: is this is what's going to happen every now and again.
- 3:02Speaker 2: One time. I know you get filed every time, but
- 3:04Speaker 2: I can't slow the game up. Told me that, he said,
- 3:08Speaker 2: I know you get filed on every play.
- 3:10Speaker 1: I think, Diagnolo, I mean, but I.
- 3:11Speaker 4: Will enter you, I will enter Lebron, and I will
- 3:16Speaker 4: enter Luca into the discussion of the hardest players to.
- 3:19Speaker 3: Effiicih Orlando Dwight, because the only.
- 3:25Speaker 4: Way to guard you is the value. Lucas too big
- 3:28Speaker 4: Lebron is too big. You were too big like that.
- 3:31Speaker 4: I mean, there's nothing else opponents can do. Illegal foul
- 3:34Speaker 4: doesn't work and it's not right, but I just that's
- 3:36Speaker 4: what dominant of foul
