VIDEO: Bucks' G League Coach Chase Buford Goes on Wild NSFW Rant Aimed at Referees After Loss
By Karl Rasmussen

The Milwaukee Bucks made history on Sunday, becoming the fastest team to clinch a playoff berth, beating out a record previous held by the Warriors. Unfortunately, things weren't going so smoothly for their G League affiliates, who fell in a disappointing loss to the Gran Rapids Drive. Well, head coach Chase Buford was utterly livid in the aftermath of the game, and went on an NSFW rant in which he specifically admonished referee Matt Rafferty. He even urged reporters to share the clip on Twitter -- which they did, with pleasure,

Well, Chase. You're officially on the record saying some pretty heinous things about a referee. I guess you got your wish, in the end.
Buford, whose hair looked as if it had just spent the past three hours in fear of being ripped from his scalp, was red-faced as he berated Rafferty's officiating, calling the official and his crew "biased, cheating, and unfair."
Yo, this is my new favorite coaching postgame clip. The fines and/or suspensions on this are about to be bananas. The Wisconsin Herd gave up 48 pts in 4Q in a loss to @grdrive. https://t.co/Pfi3iUsleA

At the end of the day, Buford will now have to do some explaining for more than just the 21-point blown lead suffered by the Herd, including what was likely the most frustrating fourth quarter of his life during which his team surrendered 48 points.
Overall, just a really rough day in the office for Chase. Good thing he didn't say anything he can't take back, right?
