Raptors’ Danny Green hopeful his technical fouls will get rescinded
Source: clutchpoints.com
Danny Green of the Toronto Raptors has received a bunch of technical fouls this season. Despite this, he’s hoping that they’ll get rescinded after a review by the officials.
Via Twitter, Green responded Harrison D. Sanford’s observation that he’s got more technical fouls this season that his entire career combined.
Green got tagged two technical fouls and was subsequently ejected in their in their 112-107 loss to the Detroit Pistons. According to statistics culled by ESPN, this just the first and second technical foul for the season for the 31-year-old. Contrary to Sanford’s claims, Green has a total of six technical fouls. The other four fouls were acquired during Green’s stint with the San Antonio Spurs.
The point is that Green isn’t really considered as a guy who talks a lot after a bad call. He just soldiers on and plays. That’s why a bunch of fans thought that the referees were ganging up on the Raptors after tagging their players with Ts.
Despite this, Green is still hopeful that the fouls will be taken away from his career tally. Perhaps he’s trying to build a reputation as one of the few players who doesn’t pounce of the referees after a seemingly bad call.
