Mo's foul downgraded, suspension lifted, Jose's tech overturned
According to Raptors TV.
Mo receives a flagrant-I meaning he will play tonight.
Jose's tech was overturned.
NBA head offices... sometimes they get it right. Sure takes a long time, though.

Re: Mo's foul downgraded, suspension lifted, Jose's tech overturned
I was hoping that they'd downgrade Mo's flagrant-2 to a flagrant-1, but I never expected them to overturn Jose's tech. Does that ever happen in the NBA?! It does make sense for them to overturn it though, since he was arguing about what is now a non-existent foul. Either way, good stuff. Glad to see the league get it right for a change.

Re: Mo's foul downgraded, suspension lifted, Jose's tech overturned
Rasheed Wallace has had a few techs overturned over the years. If I recall correctly, I believe the league office reviews ever tech called and decides if it was just/unjust. Obviously, most techs are warranted. The right call is downgrading Peterson's (it was clearly a flagrant-1, just as he was clearly going for the ball and didn't make it in time). I didn't think they'd overturn Calderon's tech. I'm glad they did, though.

They said on the Fan that Jose's tech was apparently for touching a ref and not for arguing the call. The NBA found no video evidence that actually showed him making physical contact, and so they overturned it.

Alot of tech's are getting overturned now. Simply because when you hit a certain number you get automatically suspended (which is a new rule) and the league wants to make sure there all somewhat legit.

Re: Mo's foul downgraded, suspension lifted, Jose's tech overturned
refs are only human, but I hate the ones that try and take over the games like that Chicago game.
they killed any flow to the game and made it a non stop parade to the free throw line....with Toronto shooting 37 and Chicago 26
when the game is over, it's never good when ur talking bout the refs.

Yeah, you're right.
Quote:
As Peterson was being ejected, guard Jose Calderon was being issued a technical at midcourt. Calderon and the official wound up bumping into each other after Calderon went to the hoop and came down hard.
Calderon thought a foul should have been called and vocalized his protest as he ran back down the floor. The official believed Calderon had intentionally run into him and issued a technical.
That call was also overturned by the league yesterday, saving Calderon some money.
