Firstly, I'm no fan of basketball, as a professional sport it's a game designed around advertising.
I've heard some rumors about this seasons junior finals series that are outrageous, the refs seem to have lost the plot.
I think I posted about one such incident a few weeks back in which an Unders team ended up with just 2 players on the court before half-time after a series of crazy technical fouls being called by refs on children as young as 11. Some of the kids were asked to leave the stadium due to repeat technical fouls, fouls that most adult players would struggle to understand and you would need a video replay to analyse!
In one incident a coach was fouled/banned from the stadium because after having only two players left he pulled his U12 team off the court! The refs expected his team to continue a grand final with only two players, no bench and no coach!
I suspect someone high up has had their kid spurned by BV and is seeking technical revenge across the entire competition because it seems like a system wide fever has hit the referees!
