So what exactly has changed between the refs last year and this year? It's sort of baffling to think the way a game is called across 2 years with lots of returning refs can drastically change, but going by player and coach reactions, you'd think it had.

Maybe the players and coaches... are wrong?

there’s been way more games decided by flagrantly bad or incorrect calls, inconsistent application of the review policy, and anecdotally way more entitled attitudes and arrogance from the officials in those situations where they’ve made a mistake. combine that with their sassy bitching on Twitter, complaining about the L2M report, and insistence on some kind of false equivalence narrative where they’re as important as the players and are being disrespected in some way by having their professional mistakes acknowledged and they can honestly go gently caress themselves

calling a summit to work out your grievances and being upset when most of the players predictably don’t show up is some bullshit. the players job is to play, your job is to officiate the game and enforce the rules. there’s nothing to talk about. as an official your importance to the product and overall replaceability is equivalent to like, the guys at the scorer’s table. and even if you are of equal importance, it’s not the players prerogative to understand your position any more than it is yours to throw down a nasty dunk and pump up the crowd.

nobody likes officials and people are mean to you when you gently caress up, abloobloo welcome to literally your job as it’s always been since the day referees were invented

To follow his logic, he's talking about the people who said it was stupid to leave Lebron's team, because the Celtics have a better record, so they've been proven wrong, as the celtics are empirically better at winning basketball games
