*As we pointed out before Sunday’s Game 1, in Mavs playoffs games worked by Crawford from 2001-to-2005, the Mavs record was 0-8. (Those years, Dallas was 41-37 in games NOT worked by Crawford.) *Now we’re updated to this additional info: Since 2001, the Mavs are 53-50 overall in playoffs. Dallas record when Crawford is NOT working the game is 52-35. Dallas’ record when Crawford IS working the Mavs game is. … 1-15.
*Want more? The one Mavs win under Crawford’s watch was in the 2006 Phoenix series, a Dallas blowout victory. Also in 2006, in the NBA Finals, guess who worked Game 3 against the Heat, when Dwyane Wade was allowed to shoot as many FTs (18) as the entire Mavs team made, all leading to Dallas’ two-point loss? That would be Danny Crawford.
And in Game 6, when the Mavs lost by three points?And Wade shot 21 free throws, two fewer than the number shot by the entire Mavs team?
Danny Crawford strikes again.

IIRC, Crawford's crews call the fewest fouls per game. That results in games becoming more physical ... which ultimately works against the Mavs style of play.

More dumbass reffing to Crawford

We should team with Spurs fans to get a "no refs with the last name Crawford" rule passed.

There should be a no Crawford rule applied to all Texas teams and then a pe ion for a new NBA commissioner so we don't have these crooked games.

1-15, 115 less free throws, 43 more fouls called against.

I find it a fishy stat, I really do!

Stern doens't like Cuban, Yao Ming, and the small market teams like San Antonio. In fact, San Antonio upset Sterns plans several times because somehow, despite horrible ref jobs, they managed to win it all anyways.
