Furious Raptors coach Darko Rajaković goes off on a wild rant on referees after 'BS' loss to Lakers

Whew. Tell them how you really feel, Darko Rajakovic.

The Toronto Raptors head coach was so mad at NBA referees after the Los Angeles Lakers bested them 132-131 on Tuesday night. Why?

Because he saw the Lakers get so many free throw opportunities (36 to a scant 13 for the Raps), and not enough calls for his team — in the fourth, he said it was a 23 to two free-throw advantage —  specifically Scottie Barnes who the coach noted went to the hoop a ton.

“This is completely BS,” he yelled furiously to reporters. “This is a shame. Shame for the referees, shame for the league to allow this.”

Then, he added: “They had to win tonight? If that’s the case, just let us know so we don’t show up for the game.”

Yep. He’ll be hearing from the league office, no doubt:

"This is completely BS, this is shame. Shame for the referees, shame for the league…if that's the case, just let us know so we don't show up for the game."

Darko is going OFF

“They had to win tonight? If that's the case, just let us know so we don't show up for the game. Just give them the win. That was not fair tonight."
