if it is him, this place will bricks
we won't know till tomorrow morning
It will be him, we haven't seen him yet and I believe the nba is only running five crews for the cfs
McCutchen is the crew chief tonight, Brothers and John Goble are the crew. Zach Zarba is the alternate.
Monty McCutchen
Tony Brothers
John Goble

If the Spurs play the sort of passive, indifferent style they chose to showcase in OKC, David Robinson, Sean Elliott, and George Gervin could be the officials and the Spurs would still lose. It's about the Spurs at this point.
I saw it coming
what happened yesterday, then.....that is a bad analysis. (Joey and road games)
They only time games are called fairly is when Danny Crawford is the ref. Who ever wins when he is the ref is the better team. He just can't ref all the games. He'll be there tonight I am pretty sure. If he is not, they want OKC to win the series. I will turn off the TV immediately if he is not there tonight.
So he is not there tonight.......Might as well not even watch............LAY YOUR MONEY DOWN ON OKC.
Got a hugging up on Durant's mom deciding the Spurs season.

With a 2-0 lead you can't blame outside factors if you get backdoor swept again. It's intellectually dishonest. Something's just mentally wrong with this team and they forgot how to finish.
For those who want to worry about such things:
The league went to assigning 5 crew chiefs in the conference finals round in 2012 (there had been 6 chiefs in this round every year between 2008 and 2011; before that, it's hard to know with much certainty who the crew chief was in a given game).
In that configuration, the Game 1 chief in this round has also been the Game 6 chief in the same series. Thus, in 2012, when there both series went to at least Game 6, Danny Crawford was the crew chief for Game 1 of MIA/BOS (in Miami) and then was the crew chief for Game 6 of that series (in Boston) and Joey Crawford was the crew chief for Game 1 of SA/OKC (in SA) and then was the crew chief for Game 6 of that series (in OKC). Last year, Monty McCutchen was the crew chief for Game 1 of MIA/IND (in Miami) and then was the crew chief for Game 6 of that series (in Indianapolis).
This makes sense because it keeps the general rule (which is usually only broken in the Finals or for a Game 7 of an earlier series) that an official won't work two games in the same city during the same series.
If history holds, the Game 6 crew chief for MIA/IND should be Scott Foster and the Game 6 crew chief for SA/OKC should be Danny Crawford.
My early guesses are that either McCutchen or Danny Crawford is scheduled to be the chief for a Game 7 of MIA/IND and that either Foster or Joey Crawford is scheduled to be the Game 7 chief of SA/OKC.

How do you feel about tonights officials? I always felt like McCutchen was a good official. I know Brothers has been getting some heat lately and I don't know much about Goble.
Yeah, if the Spurs lose this series after being up 2-0 yet again, don't go blaming the refs.
I think the officiating is irrelevant if the Spurs play without aggression and as if this doesn't really matter.
I think McCutchen is probably the best official in the league.
Brothers is Brothers.
Goble is young; this is the first year that he's worked in the conference finals. The league has promoted him very quickly (he made the conference finals crew in his 5th playoff year, which is very fast). He will likely blow some calls tonight in favor of Durant and Westbrook.
It's over folks. This was always going to be the case. Brothers kept for the important one in San Antonio to set up OKC to finish up at home.
KD v. LeBron... the NBA marketing dream.
YOU ADAM SILVER!... Please save us Monty McCutchen
Spurs trying to end multiple streaks tonight
Hopefully we don't even notice who the the officials are tonight as far as bad calls go. Hopefully being in San Antonio stops some of the bull calls Chimp usually gets when he's out of control..
Game over
