Chip Patterson, recent graduate of University of North Carolina – Chapel Hill, writes for TheHoopDoctors.com and BusterSports.com. A lifelong student of the game, he has passionately followed the NBA and College Basketball since C-Webb was calling “Timeout!”.
Scott Skiles went to the playoffs 3 out of the 4 complete seasons he had in Chicago. If you had told him when he got hired by Milwaukee that he would have a good chance to be back in two seasons he probably would call you crazy.
Or maybe he would give you a Technical Foul. Because that is exactly what he did TO a referee during their matchup with Washington on Wednesday night. As you can see from the video below, the ejection starts with Skiles pleading his case for Haywood fouling Hakim Warrick. That is where Technical #1 was issued to Coach Skiles.
For some reason, no assistant coaches or players decided to restrain Skiles from going doing his best impression of a referee and giving the call right back.
Washington ended up winning the game 104-102 with Earl Boykins as the hero.
See, it was just a wierd game all around.
