My favorite Tommy Nunez story is from the 2007 playoffs when the San Antonio Spurs were able to get past the Phoenix Suns in the second round. Of course, what many fans didn't know was that Phoenix had someone working against them behind the scenes. Nunez was the group supervisor for that playoff series, and he definitely had a rooting interest.
Nunez loved the Hispanic community in San Antonio and had a lot of friends there. He had been a referee for 30 years and loved being on the road; in fact, he said that the whole reason he had become a group supervisor was to keep getting out of the house. So Nunez wanted to come back to San Antonio for the conference finals. Plus, he, like many other referees, disliked Suns owner Robert Sarver for the way he treated officials. Both of these things came into play when he prepared the referees for the games in the staff meetings. I remember laughing with him and saying, "You would love to keep coming back here." He was pointing out everything that Phoenix was able to get away with and never once told us to look for anything in regard to San Antonio. Nunez should have a championship ring on his finger.

I think Joey is supposed to be considered generally fair to the road team, more so than others; he's not easily influenced by the home crowd. Unless you're the Spurs of course, in which case you can forget about it home or away.

I don't know about the others.

info:

Joey Crawford worked Games 1 and 5 of the Finals (a Lakers win and a Celtics win, respectively), Dan Crawford worked Game 3 (Lakers win) and Foster worked Game 4 (Celtics win).

well...

it has more to do with reputations...

and what is their agenda for tonight----and where is the major money at---

the fact that scott foster was implicated with all those donaghy phone calls---from donaghy to foster---BEFORE---NBA games in question of improprieties---

should be enough to NOT assign him anywhere NEAR an NBA game ---UNTIL--a proper investigation has been conducted...

joey foster has a reputation for making the game about HIM---instead of the two teams....

dan crawford---I guess either team can claim he hates them---or loves them--who knows what his agenda is....

maybe---it is the lakers that are screwed----

but that brings us to stern----

and everyone knows who stern loves and protects


either way---someone's getting screwed tonight

[mavsfan1000]

Danny Crawford hates pretty much every time I want to win. lol

[Giuseppe]

either way---someone's getting screwed tonight

Joey has now worked each of the last 3 Game 7's in the NBA Finals (1994, 2005, and 2010).
