Tom Thibodeau has had a tough year coaching a Chicago Bulls team that has been without superstar Derrick Rose.
Basically, Thibodeau is coaching his face off for every single win, and when the refs make a call that prevents his squad from doing so, he is going to get mad — really, really mad.
Center Joakim Noah tipped in a shot with less than two seconds remaining, presumably giving the Bulls the lead in overtime. However, upon further review, the game’s refs reversed the bucket, saying that Noah had tipped it in while the ball was still over the rim.
Check it out for yourselves. Would you be as ticked off as Thibodeau?

John Calipari took aim at a familiar foe: the NCAA. Claiming the NCAA has embarrassed him, Cal called for stricter eligibility and hinted at secession. Does his argument hold water, and what do we make of the coach’s gripes?
