Tilmon owns his foul trouble imo. Last game example...

On Tilmon’s first foul and technical, he is mouthing with Alexander and then he sets up with his elbow basically in Alexander’s throat. Right in front of the ref. In that situation, if the ref is out to get Tilmon, he could just wait for Tilmon to extend the elbow and then blow the whistle. Instead, he takes a moment to step out and talk to both players about the talking and the elbow. He tells Tilmon the elbow is too high. Tilmon lowers the elbow to Alexander’s chest and says “is this ok?” The ref says yes. Not good enough for Tilmon as his response is “Are you sure?” And he adds a smirk for good measure. Stupid move to bait and disrespect the ref. Idiotic move to follow that with a head down shoulder charge into Alexander. Beyond imbecilic to finish it off with a ball flip at the fallen player. Tilmon somehow thinks he’ll get the last word with a ref. Kid, the whistle always gets the last word.
