Bickerstaff then crumpled up a piece of paper, threw it, stood up and left the room. The 46-year-old is in his first season as the Pistons’ head coach after being fired by the Cavaliers last May following a second-round playoff exit.

Pistons head coach J.B. Bickerstaff ripped into the officiating crew on Saturday in his post-game media session following a six-point loss to the Thunder, as Omari Sankofa II of The Detroit Free Press writes. Bickerstaff told reporters that he was “extremely proud” about how his team competed, but was “disgusted” by the way the game was officiated.
