With 20 seconds left, Nate Robinson, in his second game back from a 10-game suspension, got a technical foul for jawing with Anderson at midcourt as the Bobcats shot free throws. Thomas claimed Robinson was joking around with Anderson.

Robinson sat by his locker and sang in the locker room, saying, "I got a technical and I don't know why. The refs are out to get me."

Great way to build up that rappaport with the officials Nate.

Nate is one dumb puppy.

Nate is like a chicken. Every day is new.

I'm seriously so sick of Nate Robinson. STFU and play damn basketball.

Love the guy. Heart of a lion and plays his arse off, but if he doesn't stop harping and do something to better himself, in terms of controlling his temper and complaining, he's gonna end up right where Francis is right now and possibly even get booed all the time, like Marbury.

I'm a fan of Nates skills but I'm shocked a 22 year old father is so immature. I think he may be ocd or just plain hyper. He smacks away at gum like 200mph during games. I will give him the rest of the season to mature. He has skills to be a 15ppg player off the bench but he has to grow up

Nate is a former under-sized football CB. To play that position at his size, you have to be ****y and very aggressive. His problem is that he has to realize he is now an NBA PG and there is no place for hot-heads at the point guard position. I am hopeful that he will mature, but I think we will probably trade Nate before he reaches his full potential. Great talent, but I agree he needs to growup.

At 22 a lot of people are immature, he'll be fine. Maturity comes at different times for different people and for different reasons.

Actually I meant ocd, adhd, hyper, and possibly bi polor for all I know. i never met him so I cant say any for sure. Just taking crazy guess's to his erratic behavior

Nate certainly does need to grow up, but when everyone else on the team was out there arguing calls (Q got a costly technical at the end too), why single him out?

Maybe because he just got off a ten game suspension for inciting the biggest brawl of the season?

Albeit one in which no punches were thrown (im not counting Mellos fairy slap). When you get that kind if negative exposure you got to act right for a few games at least.

I dont think he is being single out for any 1 incident. Its been 1.5 seasons of this immature behavior

I'm not going to disagree with that, but I do think if you are going to tell Nate to zip it, it's only fair that our "leaders" like Q, Steph, etc. do the same. Leaders should be given a little more leeway in that regard to stand up for the team, but they are taking it over the top. There's really nothing wrong with questioning calls, but the constant arguing, showing up the officials after every perceived botched call needs to stop. It doesn't help us.

And once again I can see that Nate is a special case given his history, but IMO the behavior of this team as a whole is just unacceptable at times.

Nate immaturity is shown in many ways. its not always about the officials. He has seemed to ignore his own coachs on the bench at times

He should be careful, his career could really suffer if doesnt learn how to act.
