Fred VanVleet held absolutely nothing back 😳
, as the 29-year-old delivered a profane tirade against NBA referees, specifically targeting Ben Taylor. Paraphrasing the rant wouldn't do it justice, so here it is in full:
"I'll take a fine, I don't really care. I thought Ben Taylor was f—ing terrible tonight. For most nights, out of the three [officials] there's one or two that just f— the game up," VanVleet said. "It's been like that a couple games in a row. Denver was tough, obviously.
You can look it up, most of my techs this year have been with Ben Taylor officiating. At a certain point as a player, you feel it's personal. It's never a good place to be. That's not why we lost tonight, we got outplayed but it definitely makes it tougher to overcome. There've been certain times this year where I feel our team is getting consumed with the way the whistle is going, especially after the night we just had in Denver, the way that finished. There were a couple calls early that we all disagreed with, and if I say to my team 'Come on guys, let's keep playing through the bulls—t' and that warrants a tech, I think that's a little bit crazy.
