Technical fouls
The easiest thing we can get rid of is the technical fouls. Granted, the LA Clippers have a bad reputation for complaining often, and the officials certainly get caught up in it, too.
The Clippers have the third most technical fouls combined this season with 32, and currently lead the league in total ejections with five. In addition, Doc leads all coaches with six T’s and two ejections. Last season, the Clippers led the league with 84 total T’s — by far the most, with the Rockets in 2nd place at 75.
While Blake Griffin has improved his behavior on the court significantly (he used to consistently rack up some of the highest number of techs per season), the rest of the team is having difficulty staying calm and collected. In reality, almost every player and coach in the league complains when they get a bad call. But for some reason, the Clippers have a bad rep for it.
The easiest way to avoid getting T’d up is to keep your mouth closed and hands to yourself. Easier said than done in the heat of the moment, but still very possible.
