As ridiculous as that rejection seemed, YOU CANNOT DO THAT TO AN OFFICIAL. Every player knows this and this isn't the first time. Glad to see the him tossed for it.
[...] Players can react to calls with which they disagree, provided the reaction is not overly demonstrative, disrespectful, or prolonged. On this play, the player gives a dismissive ‘wave off’ to the official in resentment to the ‘no call’. Even though there was a delay between the ‘no call’ and the gesture, it is clear that the player’s act was in response to the officiating. This gesture, while not overly demonstrative, is deemed disrespectful and will be assessed a technical foul.
Move along, nothing to see here.
