Nevermind. I guess it could be Bavetta though Nies has not worked this series yet. Maybe Bavetta and Nies are both working the game.
I am still counting on Bavetta having a coronary during a game. Hopefully it's tomorrow if this is true.
Let's just agree to disagree then. And is there such a thing as ass cancer? :huhQuote:

I don't mind Bavetta as long as the Spurs are at home. Bavetta is a nightmare for the road teams. Javie is hands-down the worst official in the league.
Now Bavetta's one of the classiest refs in the game. I'll give him that. Steve Javie...one of my co-workers told me he's the only ref that's ever ejected David Robinson. I don't know if that's true, though.
Now Joey Crawford...I guess we learned this post-season not to throw mouthpieces at him! I hope Joey Crawford refs Game 1 of the Pistons/Heat series. It'll be interesting to see if Udonis Haslem throws a mouthpiece at him AGAIN! :lol
I haven't seen Violet Palmer ever since she reffed her first NBA Playoff game, though. I heard she's also a WNBA ref, so she may be busy with that right now.
I have my own sources and i personally know that one of the refs is gonna be Bavetta. believe me or not its up to you, we'll see game time

This time of the year you may see two of the "top" refs at the same game. I would not be surprised to see Bavetta and D. Crawford.
Bavetta did game 4.
I thought you couldn't do two games in a series with that quick of a turnaround?
I expected Jack Nies, Danny Crawford, and whoeverelse.
I wasn't expecting Bavetta so soon either. I was just taking people at their word. I think D. Crawford did game 1 against Dallas.Quote:

One thing you're guaranteed to get with Bavetta, lots of calls from him when he's out of position and doesn't see the play.
Posted this elsewhere with more detailed reasoning, but Bavetta has to be right.
I'm guessing Bavetta, Delaney, and D. Crawford.
Javie is the most likely interloper on that trio, replacing either Delaney or Crawford.
BEEP refs..
Yeah, but he's a homer.
I hope Danny Crawford isn't the ref. If he is the spurs might as well start celebrating now. He hates Dallas.
I've said for years that I think Danny Crawford is one of the very best officials in the game.Quote:

We need the little sandbag eye gouger things to throw..
Instant replay.. 2 per half per team.
Uh... isn't Dan a fit middle-aged black guy with a moustache and Joey a fat balding white geezer?Quote:

Stern will be in attendance so the refs will be doing their best I hope.
