Frank Hughes of the News Tribune reports that Seattle forward Vladimir Radmanovic had a few words about the officiating in last night?s game against the Cavaliers. Radmanovic was ejected after elbowing Cleveland?s Carlos Boozer with 24 seconds left in the Soncis 111-98 win.

Radmanovic didn?t dispute the elbow, but explained that it was the culmination of several minutes of dirty play by Boozer.

"I just want the (league) to see the ... tape .. and then see what happens," Radmanovic said after the game. "This is crazy. Guys are hitting me with like three minutes left in the game and the referees don't call nothing. I hit the guy and he calls a technical foul. Yes, I hit him, but they have to call something under the basket. The last three minutes, I took 10 elbows from him and I didn't say anything. That referee, I don't know how he saw that hit that I threw at that guy. If he was expecting that, that was the only way to (see) that because I am not hitting the guy for no reason."

Radmanovic was involved in a confrontation last week in New York with the Knicks? Kurt Thomas. The two were shoving each other. Thomas ended up being fines $5,000 for shoving Radmanovic in the back after the game.

Radmanovic has no problem with rough play, but he believes that dirty play should not be tolerated by the officials. "If a guy plays hard with me, I am going to play hard with him. But don't play dirty because that is not basketball," he said. "I don't care who is testing me and who is not. If a guy hits me, that's a foul. That's what they should call. There is no other thing to say about that."
