WATCH: Jordan Poole Receives Ridiculous Technical Foul

I'll be the first to admit that the NBA is not very high on my list when it comes to watching sports. Whether it's "load management", the formation of super-teams, or the antics from some of the sports biggest stars, today's NBA has become nearly unwatchable as far as I'm concerned.

The video below provides another example of why I think the NBA product continues to deteriorate.

On Tuesday, the Golden State Warriors visited the Oklahoma City Thunder for a late-season road contest. Early in the fourth quarter, Poole was hit with a technical foul after passing the ball to the referee. It wasn't a fast-ball to the referees head while screaming profanities, it was a simple bounce pass without a word being said...and it led to a technical foul.

Ironically, the game provided even one more example of why I rarely tune in to watch an NBA game these days. Earlier in the game, Poole had possession of the ball when teammate Draymond Green cut to the hole and proceeded to act like a child when he didn't get the ball. Green, clearly frustrated, turned his back on the play and walked away, which resulted in a turnover.

Draymond Green gave up on the play in frustration after Jordan Poole didn't pass him the ball.

Klay Thompson passed the ball to Green, who had his back facing him, resulting in a turnover for the Warriors 😬pic.twitter.com/pYyqEpBX8y
