Shaun Livingston Ejected For Yelling At Official In Warriors-Blazers Game

Shaun Livingston was not happy with official Scott Foster after a missed call late in the second quarter of Game 4 between the Golden State Warriors and Portland Trail Blazers. After the officials missed a call during a layup by Livingston, and the 30-year-old went right after Foster. That was a bad idea.

As the rest of the Warriors jogged back on defense, Livingston directly towards Foster and yelled at him while staring down at him. Foster immediately whistled the Warriors guard for a technical. Livingston didn’t stop though, and he kept going at the official, following him and standing over him, then was caught on camera yelling some choice words. Foster quickly gave him his second technical and tossed him from the game.

Livingston was right, the officials did miss a pretty obvious call. But you can’t keep going at an official and yelling at him and not expecting to get run. After Foster T’d him up the first time, Livingston should have walked away. He had made his point. Continuing to go after an official at that point is just asking to get run.
