Danny Green of the Toronto Raptors has received a bunch of technical fouls this season. Despite this, he's hoping that they'll get rescinded after a review by the officials.
Via Twitter, Green responded Harrison D. Sanford's observation that he's got more technical fouls this season that his entire career combined.
They are under review to be rescinded hopefully lol

Green got tagged two technical fouls and was subsequently ejected in their in their 112-107 loss to the Detroit Pistons. According to statistics culled by ESPN, this just the first and second technical foul for the season for the 31-year-old. Contrary to Sanford's claims, Green has a total of six technical fouls. The other four fouls were acquired during Green's stint with the San Antonio Spurs.
The Raptors: Marc Gasol fouled out, Siakam and Danny Green with 5 fouls + 2 technical fouls + phantom fouls for Siakam/Green,
The Pistons: Zaza fouled out. Reggie/Thon 5, Drummond with 5 fouls which he would have fouled out on the non-foul call from NBA refs on Siakam att dunk— Jeff Ferrara🎥📸 (@JFerraraF18) March 4, 2019
@OfficialNBARefs what is this, siakam has his hands up gets called for a foul then a technical, then Danny green gets called for another ridiculous foul and gets a technical for barely saying anything. This is honestly ridiculous it seems as the NBA is targeting the raptors

The point is that Green isn't really considered as a guy who talks a lot after a bad call. He just soldiers on and plays. That's why a bunch of fans thought that the referees were ganging up on the Raptors after tagging their players with Ts.
Despite this, Green is still hopeful that the fouls will be taken away from his career tally. Perhaps he's trying to build a reputation as one of the few players who doesn't pounce of the referees after a seemingly bad call.
