MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- Brooklyn Nets swingman Ben Simmons called several of the whistles he received "bulls---" following a 134-124 loss to the Memphis Grizzlies on Monday night, noting that "refs make mistakes too."
While Simmons, who fouled out for the second time in three regular-season games, was frustrated with many calls, the one that drew most of his ire was his sixth foul, called by official J.T. Orr with 3:52 left in the contest. Grizzlies guard Ja Morant slowly let the ball roll up the floor then collected it and stood there waiting for Simmons to make a move.
