Re: NBA suspends ref

I don't think it'd be a fair fight. Although Crawford is pretty scrappy.

Interesting the article said it was the first suspension of a ref since January. How many other sports suspend refs that frequently?

Re: NBA suspends ref

Joe Crawford is awful. Has been awful for a long time. (The ref, not the UK guard.)

Re: NBA suspends ref

Fans don't attend games to watch the ref!

Re: NBA suspends ref

Now if the NBA would only get rid of the rest of the refs and get replacements who actually will call the games straight up then maybe I will watch a game.

Re: NBA suspends ref

Just saw David Stern on ESPN talking about Crawford. The man is not happy. At all.

Re: NBA suspends ref

As you can imagine, there is much rejoicing in San Antonio over this news. Now if they could just convince Stern to replay or throw out the score of that game against the Mavs.

There are a couple of other refs who are equally reviled by Spurs fans: Steve Javie and Dick Bavetta.

There are more refs reviled by Pacer fans, everyone of them who have ever refereed a Pacer playoff game.
