NIMH Ep #696
Stephen A. Smith slams NBA referee for ejecting Giannis Antetokounmpo over a mean mug!

I’m gonna call the league office today,” Smith declared. “Who the hell is paying to see the referee? That is not a reason to eject Giannis Antetokounmpo from a game. That is ridiculous. That is a disservice to the fans, to the paying customer coming to see them play.”

“I did not know that that was the reason that Giannis Antetokounmpo got ejected from a basketball game. That is not a reason to eject a superstar basketball player who clearly, the paying customer is coming to see,” Smith continued. “For Giannis Antetokounmpo to get ejected for that reason is ridiculous.”

Hopefully, commissioner Adam Silver will be sitting by his phone to take that call. Because as Silver attempts to please the NBA’s TV partners by preaching the importance of stars playing in regular season games, the referee did everyone a disservice by telling Antetokounmpo he couldn’t play Wednesday night.
