After seeing this picture, he probably won't want to go.
Crawford referees all Spurs games until he retires, and has to be invited to all parties Tony and Tim go to.

I see what you did there.
Well Duncan is dressed like "THE ONE"...that makes Crawford an agent and Stern the Architect.
I really wish I'd done that on purpose!
Duncan and Parker need to preempt further damage by releasing an apology for what was meant as a joke in bad taste....because otherwise as mentioned earlier, it could be misconstrued as a threat to Crawford and NBA refs.
If it weren't for Halloween, that fake Joey Crawford would still be unthreatened...
Not that it really matters, but this party did move onto Tony's nightclub.
If it doesn't matter, why did you bother to mention it?
C'mon...nothing will happen. It was ing Halloween.
Stern cant suspend them. Remember it is a disservice to the league and fans if players dont play in the game. By his own admission, the game means more than the players.
LOL
that raises the questions: Could the Spurs really just suspend their players if they want to sit them? (guess that probably would also erase their paychecks, or can they get payed anyway?
What if it really was Joey Crawford.
Then it was the lamest costume ever.
Duncan addresses the photo: http://blog.mysanantonio.com/spursna...lloween-photo/
Tim Duncan padded over to address the media in bare feet Thursday at the Spurs practice facility, the picture of island reserve.
As someone who prizes comfort and privacy, it shouldn’t come as much surprise that Duncan views the leaking of a Halloween picture showing him and teammate Tony Parker holding toy guns to the head of a man dressed as NBA official Joey Crawford with a sort of resigned exasperation.
“It’s this day and age,” Duncan said. “It was a Halloween party in a private atmosphere. We were having fun. There was nothing to it. But this day and age, people want to blow things into something more than it is. Hopefully it’s gone and whatever is whatever.”
The photo, taken at a large Halloween party, began circulating last weekend via various message boards and the popular sports website Deadspin. The national and local media picked up on it not long after, prompting official no comments from the Spurs and the NBA.
Head coach Gregg Popovich said he hadn’t seen the photo when asked about it on Monday. *Teammate Manu Ginobili, who attended the same party as Zorro, said the photo was “very innocent.”
“If somebody dressed like Pop was there,” he said, “I probably would have done the same thing with my little sword. I think it was a joke.”
With five days and two games having passed since the NBA became aware of the photo last Saturday, it’s looking less and less likely that the NBA will take any public disciplinary action. The biggest fallout could be that the already private Duncan will be even less likely to interact with the public — especially after his recent experience at a local drug store.
“You deal with it when it comes and try to take as little pictures as possible with people for that exact reason,” he said.
Man some dumbasses ruin it for everyone. Now Timmy won't ever take a pic with me!
Damn all this fallout is insane. He got suspension. He got suspension. Everybody got suspensions!
The only true fallout is they will stop letting non celebrities in to these types of parties. Thanks for ruining it jackass.
Yeah we used to go to all of them.
I have some good pics of some big named Spurs, but I don't share.
